Who Really Cares

This is dedicated to you, you know who you are.

Listen... yo...

I called you when i needed you most, i thought we would link

I told you the bad news, you haven't talked to me since

Frankly, i don't want to talk to a shrink

I might look happy but i'm angry and i'm tortured within

You come back around now, with your hands out

I can see the guilt in your eyes, maybe you understand now

It isn't the fact that when i talk you didn't listen

It's that you said you'd call back in a minute but you didn't

Don't get me wrong, i'm not trying to beg friend

It just feels lifes my hit a dead end

I tried to turn around but now my back's against the wall

And the pain just won't stop i might have to end it all

I tell myself life is sacred, it's not right to waste it

I feel surrounded but at the same time isolated

At times my own day dreams scare me

I find myself hating anyone that may seem carefree

Id rather go out smiling than crying at home

I've realized that my worst fear is dying alone

At times i lose my composure but that's not a surprise

I can't control the emotions i keep bottled inside

Don't pretend there's a friendship you and me share

When you hit rock bottom people are usually scared

I guess stupidly i expected you to be there

And when the shit hits the fan man, who really cares

Yea listen...

I was just sitting here feeling sorry for myself and helpless

Then i realized that i was just being selfish

I'm a soldier, my self-centred brain is my helmet

But when reality hit me i felt sick

We run from our problems - there's many that are paralyzed

We take life for granted - these simply never had a life

We've heard it all before - some people are deaf

That tramp lives in a box while i sleep in my bed

Inside i'm a tortured man who hates living.

But there's people being tortured in abu ghraib prison

There's youths right now that are dying from malaria

So we can have clean running water in our area

That shit there, has got me feeling ashamed

If you've been through it, tell me what's the meaning of pain

You went court, and they locked you away when you we're acting wild

There's people in guantanamo bay that never had a trial

Weve seen a lot - there's some that were born blind

In some places hip hop can't be performed live

You whopped bare chicks, you think you a heavyweight?

In africa 6000 people die from aids everyday

And the babies there get it from their mothers,

So think about that next time you fuck without a rubber

It hurts but no one said the truth would be fair

The world's a messed up place man, but who really cares?
