Lyrics

Verse 1:

You say you wanna give up and quit,
Maybe you ain't even tried, or maybe you don't have enough wit,
Maybe you're too busy talking about passing some licks,
To some barking dogs that forgot to bite their tongue 'fore they spit,
Maybe that's it, or maybe you're just overdepressed,
Stressed because you can't utilize what's attached to your neck,
Then again maybe it's not your fault,
Maybe you deserve better because when you were sinning you didn't get caught,

Maybe, what goes around comes around I guess
It's simple things in life your mind and body can't digest,
And now you claimed to be stressed,
Because you can't stand to make plans beforehand, the end result... no progress.
What you expect... someone to hold you close to their chest?
Baby you and feed you spoonfuls of future success?
Maybe you say that's not true
Or maybe you do... and just don't understand that they're achieving all your dreams and not YOU.

Maybe, you say it's too late to turn back time
Or maybe now you're being tortured by the truth in my rhymes
Maybe life's roller coaster is a heck of a ride,
And you need assistance bringing out the angel inside, or maybe
Right at this moment you're too weak to go on
And suicide's the new solution to the end of your storm
Maybe you don't have a good friend like me to help you through that...
So please, hear me out before you decide to do that....


Chorus:

Maybe we'll find a way soon
Keep your head towards the stars in the sky,
Maybe one day we'll all escape,
Maybe, Maybe


[Verse 2]

Maybe, you say you wanna get away from the strife
But you don't really wanna end it with the pills or the knife
Maybe you feel like it's your last resort,
Well I highly disagree 'cause life's a mission that you should not abort,
Maybe somewhere far in the future, further in time
Your daughter's hugging on your leg, looking up at your eyes,
She's saying, how much she loves you and the way that she does it
Got you thankful that you're the type of parent your parents wasn't?

Maybe, you should rethink this thing through after all,
Don't let your weakness win this battle, if I seem to recall
You're a survivor and a soldier, and I still see your crown
And plus, as strong as you are I never seen you so down,
Maybe you think that no one else in the world cares
And you feel so alone just because they're not there,
Well if nobody else cares, I do,
And don't think otherwise just because I'm not standing right by you,

YES, I'm talking to you with the earphones on
And anyone else who could be listening to this song
Maybe, I see you all as my brothers and sisters
And maybe I'm a little late for those no longer with us
Maybe, they call you names, call you stupid and bitter
But I see you all as my family, so please reconsider
Maybe you're still feeling the same....
Or, maybe I believe in you, so please don't let this message be one in vain

[Guitar Solo]

"Keep your head towards the skyyy!"
"Maybe you don't have a good friend..."
"So please hear me out before you decide to that!"

[Chorus x1]

Everyday another life is taken away from this earth, by self-afflicted murder. Somewhere in the world right now, somebody's thinking about suicide. If that somebody is listening to this song right now, before you take your life, please..... please hear me out.

Maybe.
