Lyrics Half of It (feat. Musiq Soulchild) - Musiq Soulchild , Annalé

Tell me what this is about
Everything's out of control
(Oh yeah)
Worked forty hours for rent
Just made it
Small dose of complicated
Life is a game I'm playin'

For this climb
You'll lose your mind
Is it worth the prize?

I work a 9 to 5 each day
'Cause I still got some bills to pay, yeah
I wanna run and get away
Oh no, you don't know the half of it
This relationship's a fake
Never could find the words to say it
Feel like I'm filled with empty space
Oh no, you don't know the half of it

Keep up this smile, everyone's watching
But no pressure
Running circles, counting my fake friends, yeah
Faith my religion ain't corrupt like they system
Safe from they mental prison
Nothing's easy, we all got struggles
(Struggle, struggle)

For this climb
You'll lose your mind
Is it worth the prize?
(Oh)

I work a 9 to 5 each day
'Cause I still got some bills to pay
I wanna run and get away
Oh no, you don't know the half of it
This relationship's a fake
Never could find the words to say it
Feel like I'm filled with empty space
Oh no, you don't know the half of it

I won't cover these scars
Every mark is part of my story
I don't wanna regret, don't wanna forget
Focus on the light on all my darkest days
I swear no more keeping my head down
Storms may rain down, yeah
But that's just the half of it

I work a 9 to 5 each day
'Cause I still got some bills to pay, yeah
I wanna run and get away
(Get away)
Oh no, you don't know the half of it
(You don't know, you don't know, you don't know)
This relationship's a fake
(I gotta pay these bills)
Never could find the words to say it
(The struggle's way too real)
Feel like I'm filled with empty space
(I gotta find a way)
Oh no, you don't know the half of it
(No, you don't know, you don't know the half of it)
