00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:05.400
I miss the days when no
one even knew my name
00:00:05.500 --> 00:00:08.600
Now everywhere I go, I wear
a hat to hide my face
00:00:08.700 --> 00:00:11.400
I got weapons hidden inside
every room in my place
00:00:11.500 --> 00:00:14.800
Now I have to keep a pistol
on me always just in case
00:00:14.900 --> 00:00:17.600
This is a nightmare, never
expected the fame
00:00:17.700 --> 00:00:20.700
To be something I would wrestle
with and fight to embrace
00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:23.700
Sometimes I feel like the love I
get's outweighed by the hate
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:26.400
I hid the tears, but I can't
hide from the pain
00:00:26.500 --> 00:00:30.700
I'm workin' 20-hour days, can't even
lie to y'all, I'm burnt out
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:33.400
I sleep on my weight bench, tryna
find the strength to work out
00:00:33.500 --> 00:00:36.600
Should be happy I'm successful, I just
went and bought my first house
00:00:36.700 --> 00:00:39.900
Thought money would help, cure my
depression, but it's worse, how?
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:42.900
Tired of it, lucky I don't have a
manager 'cause I'd be firin' him
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:45.900
Tired of talkin' to other
artists who just wanna tell
me I'm inspirin' 'em
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:49.000
Parents keep tellin' me they have
a kid and they're thankful
the child is admirin' me
00:00:49.100 --> 00:00:53.000
Great, you wanna know how I feel? I
might kill myself before retiring
00:00:53.700 --> 00:00:56.300
I'm in the clouds
00:00:56.900 --> 00:00:59.200
I can't reach the ground
00:00:59.900 --> 00:01:01.950
They're comin' in crowds
00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:04.900
Blew me up like a balloon and let me
00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:08.600
Go, watch me float away,
well, I scream "no"
00:01:08.700 --> 00:01:11.500
Every time I get close, they
pull out their phones
00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:14.600
Like "Maybe this time we
can see him explode"
00:01:14.700 --> 00:01:17.300
Blew me up like a balloon
and let me go
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:20.800
They all throwin' rocks 'cause
they're tryna poke holes
00:01:20.900 --> 00:01:23.900
They wanna see me pop, they
don't wanna see me blow
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:27.000
They're the reason that I'm gone,
they don't wanna see me blow
00:01:27.100 --> 00:01:29.700
Blew me up like a balloon and left me
00:01:29.800 --> 00:01:31.800
I miss the times when
I could go outside
00:01:31.900 --> 00:01:35.400
I didn't have to watch my back
outta the corner of my eye
00:01:35.500 --> 00:01:38.300
I didn't have to fake a smile and
pose for pictures all the time
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:41.300
Can't even lie, I miss when
time was really mine
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:44.600
Now I just belong to everybody
else but me
00:01:44.700 --> 00:01:47.800
These panic attacks are makin'
it awful hard to breathe
00:01:47.900 --> 00:01:50.500
Built a vocal booth inside the
crib and stopped makin' beats
00:01:50.600 --> 00:01:53.400
Don't even rap, I stand inside
of it and scream
00:01:53.500 --> 00:01:56.800
Like this is not what I expected,
I worked my hands to the bone
00:01:56.900 --> 00:01:59.900
And my anxiety is triggered
by the apps on my phone
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:02.900
I tried deleting them so the Internet
would leave me alone
00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:06.200
But the lack of attention made
me feel worse than before
00:02:06.300 --> 00:02:07.500
I'm sick of it all
00:02:07.600 --> 00:02:08.900
The Internet watchin'
me trip when I fall
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:10.400
Embarrassed that everyone
witnesses all
00:02:10.500 --> 00:02:12.800
My illness isn't real tired,
man, I'm addicted to y'all
00:02:12.900 --> 00:02:14.200
Rappers on Twitter don't get me at all
00:02:14.300 --> 00:02:15.700
They're posing for photos
with fans in the mall
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:17.300
I'm dying inside, pretending
I'm strong
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:19.400
I'm not a celebrity, I am just Tom
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:23.500
I'm in the clouds (Huhuhuhuhuh)
00:02:23.600 --> 00:02:26.600
I can't reach the ground (Huh)
00:02:26.700 --> 00:02:29.000
They're comin' in crowds
(Fuck, I'm so scared)
00:02:29.100 --> 00:02:31.800
Blew me up like a balloon and let
me (I can't face it anymore)
00:02:31.900 --> 00:02:35.100
Go, watch me float away,
well, I scream "no"
00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:38.100
Every time I get close, they
pull out their phones
00:02:38.200 --> 00:02:41.300
Like "Maybe this time we
can see him explode"
00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:44.300
Blew me up like a balloon
and let me go
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:47.500
They all throwin' rocks 'cause
they're tryna poke holes
00:02:47.600 --> 00:02:50.600
They wanna see me pop, they
don't wanna see me blow
00:02:50.700 --> 00:02:53.600
They're the reason that I'm gone,
they don't wanna see me blow
00:02:53.700 --> 00:02:56.100
Blew me up like a balloon and left me
00:02:56.200 --> 00:02:58.800
I miss the years when every Friday
wasn't spent with my therapist
00:02:58.900 --> 00:03:02.200
Then I realized I hated fame and
accept that I'm scared of it
00:03:02.300 --> 00:03:05.200
I got Ativan, Cipralex,
Xanax and Seraquel
00:03:05.300 --> 00:03:08.300
In a Tupperware container, I don't
