New Name (#ConstantlyPositive)

LYRICS

VERSE 1: 
Over the last few years, I’ve been wading in a state of self-hatred / 
Lower than low, beneath the bottom, but I finally made it / 
Out of the pit I was in, I won’t fall in again / 
For y'all about to count me out, well I am in it to win / 
I was down for the count, time and time and time again / 
Wouldn’t believe some of these things I’d keep hiding within / 
Back when the apathy mastered me, I’d still smash the beat masterfully / 
Make you think I live happily, but the fact is that half of me was / 
In the midst of this war inside of my core like never before / 
The pain and the pressure would never get better I chose to ignore / 
Everything that I held inside, through it all my head held up high / 
I’d say I was okay because even I believed that lie / 
Lookin’ at my smile you would swear I’m shining bright / 
But in reality, everything inside of me was dark as the night / 
Looking at my life, it was all a fight / 
Mind gone and I’m wrong, make you swear I’m alright, right? / 

HOOK: 
I want you to live. / 
see me with CP, that's #ConstantlyPositive / 
I'd give my all, my everything, and when I'm out I'll give some more / 
If it means that you would live through another 24 / 
Said I want you to live. / 
see me with CP, that's #ConstantlyPositive / 
One thing about life: is that it keeps going on / 
Long as you find your reason to stay strong / 
  
VERSE 2: 
So many struggles inside of my mind, tryna find where I can begin, / 
Good at havin' problems, 'stead of getting better I'm a veteran at holdin' em in / 
To hold them in was to hold my breath, heart so cold, might catch my death / 
Give my all, 'til I fall, truth be told, nothing left / 
Nothin left but I make you think that it's alright / 
Dark as night but I'm mad lyin' all bright / 
Does wordplay count if you have to explain it? / 
I digress, my thoughts so dark that I could hardly contain it, sustain it / 
Still tryin' to pick up the pieces, concealin' a feelin' that reaches / 
So deep and I'm so weak and I can't stand as the burden increases / 
I'm hopin' that you see this, til then I'm sittin' waitin' / 
Can't believe, anybody, would help me with my situation / 
Feels like there's been a break-in, and I let myself get taken / 
You would say that I'm okay, but the truth is you're real mistaken / 
You know my style, always got a smile on my face / 
This time, my own mind, is where I'm, out of place / 

HOOK

VERSE 3: 
I wrote this song like a letter, just to say that I'm feeling better / 
I've been through a lot but I think I finally got it together / 
It's the combination for the culmination, / 
it's the elevation after years of devastation / 
It's the finally feeling like you can breathe / 
After getting loose from the noose that kept your being diseased / 
It's that finally feeling like you're alive / 
Cuz once you decide what drives you'll not only survive but thrive / 
It's the feeling you can scream at the top of your lungs / 
"My mind is finally on board with who I am meant to become." / 
Now I'm off and runnin', first I walked, but when I fly / 
It'll be with a force that no one on this earth can deny / 
I'm here to be the reason you find yours / 
Part of my reason for breathing is just so I can rhyme more / 
Hardest beat I've ever heard is from a heart that was broken / 
Every word is aimed to make this the day you find hope in /
