With You (feat. Rahjid Beasley)
He wants to remain as God's design
A religious family so he had to keep in line
A secret kept in the dark and so he had to kept in mind
If congregation knew he liked guy's it'd ruin his life
Best friend in high school was the guy he liked
Some times their phone calls would run over night
Deep conversations found out they're so alike
Something about being together man just felt right?
Til one day, he just thought he might
Ask him a question to see what he likes
Withdrew then reality struck his mind
Said "my family never could accept this kind of life"
Despite
All that he was feeling
Pretending was just killing
Thinking "whoever who I like shouldn't make me villain?"
What else could he say
He thought "I don't mind living this way" as long I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you
As long as I'm with you
I'm with you
He wants to remain as God's design
A religious family so he had to keep in line
But like a switch everything turned worse
His dad found nothing but men all over his Google search
His dad told him to come this way
He said "your part of the problem in this day and age
Your mother will hear about all of this today
And no more of that guy friend I'll fix mistake"
He tried to send his best friend a message
But his dad already got his phone is disconnected
Months turned years being taught a lesson
So he broke down cause his dad cut off his only connection
Days later he just went upstairs
Didn't say a word had a blank face stare
Packed his bags father asked "what you doing there?"
Then he ran away and said "I can't live here as long I'm with you"
I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you
I can't be in this house
I got to get out
This place is no time for me
There's no way I can stay
I got to get away
I have to keep my identity
And all my life
I made a persona for you
I can't do this no more my hearts dying slow
And it is time to start anew
(Time to start a new)
Yea, yea (ah)
Said it's time to start anew
