Here am I
More than ever
Traumatized
Trying to find a
Piece of my mind that I can monetize
Leaving my sense of self un-compromised
Remember when you lived free of conflict?
To err is no longer an option
Anymore, I feel like it's all said and done
Oversaturated minds filled to the brim and wanting more
Any way you wanna spin do it don't let it define your worth
You look a little better with your head a little higher you know
But you don’t
Here am I
More than ever lost inside
But I don't think talking about will get me shares and likes
I thought I was following a guiding light
Does anyone remember living free from conflict?
To err is no longer an option
Anymore, I feel like it's all said and done
Oversaturated minds filled to the brim and wanting more
Any way you wanna spin do it don't let it define your worth
You look a little better with your head a little higher you know
But you don’t
Why do I
Feel the need to
Paint a picture then forget
To leave some space between
Ignore the way I feel inside
Why do I
Feel the need to
Paint a picture then forget
To leave some space between
Ignore the way I feel inside
Anymore, I feel like it's all said and done
Oversaturated minds filled to the brim and wanting more
Any way you wanna spin do it don't let it define your worth
You look a little better with your head a little higher you know
But you don’t
But you don’t
But you don’t

Ours is an art of persistence and happenstance
The game that we're playing shifts from first to third person at breakneck speeds
Everything's coming up duality
Good days long since gone
Everything's coming up duality
Good days long since gone
Not to over sensationalize the trauma
But oh well let's go ahead and profit off our opened wounds
We can patch them up tomorrow and claim we've come so far
Everything's coming up duality
And the things I say to me calm a voice that just repeats
A need to not be seen when screaming look at me
And the things I say to me calm a voice that just repeats
A need to not be seen when screaming look at me
I have this fear that I just can't escape is it true that it could be my fate to be stuck here and Frequently feeling I'm pinned to the ceiling
(Frequently feeling I'm pinned to the ceiling)
I have this fear that I just can't escape is it true that it could be my fate to be stuck here and Frequently feeling I'm pinned to the ceiling
Limbs stretched dislocating, my mind always aching
Man evolved is man evolving here we are testing the gates
But not threatened by the day to day
Finding the weakness is out daily madness
Pushing the limits, to regret ourselves past them
Man evolved is man evolving here we are testing the gates
But not threatened by the day to day
Right place but no right time to rest my weary mind
Right place but no right time to rest my weary mind

I'm fucking sick of making minimum payments,
Nickels and dimes get me to paycheck
Another day another dollar I cant spend
I'm fucking sick of making minimum payments
Yo, ten grand is a lot,
Talkin’ ‘bout one year to pay it all off?
Nah, none of that total nonsense,
I don’t even know what a job is,
Check my options, got a hand tat, ‘noxious,
In the office bumpin’ 6ix9ine,
Down some shots,
I’m waiting for the day that all my shitty tracks knock!
Like, my album was a total disaster,
A catastrophe, done got my mixtape mastered,
A masochist it seems when I come back,
To the pain brought on coz I suck at rap,
So how the fuck do I pay these bills?
(I’m on one)
Adam asked me to keep it real.
(I know bruh)
I ain’t passive, when they call me up tell ‘em kiss my ass,
Coz the bastards know they can’t cash it, bitch.
I can't spare enough to change myself this hole is home
A prophecy unforetold
I'm broke I better just go home
Just go home
My god my head is spinning
Debt clouds make sure I’m never winning
God damn is this supposed to be the dream?
Bury me in late fees
I'm fucking sick of making minimum payments,
Nickels and dimes get me to paycheck
Another day another dollar I cant spend
I'm fucking sick of making minimum payments

All For Naught

So pour a shot
One for me and all for naught
I think about the same damn sad shit
An awful lot
Pour me a shot
One for me and all for naught
Today’s the day to make it stop
Or maybe not
Another round for me and mine,
All the friends I've lost due to incident or time
Nowadays the company I keep
Are the voices of strangers,
Just a dull roar to keep the silence from deafening
Are you still watching?
Are you still listening?
Have you found the peace that makes you dive so deep,
Riding waves into storm
So pour a shot
One for me and all for naught
I think about the same damn sad shit
An awful lot

Outrage!

It seems insane to me
That with the state of affairs that you'd chose to be so
Mortally wounded by every god damn thing,
Clinging to your morals by the skin of your teeth
You like and share without addressing the problem
Thumbs blazing, bullshit rainin’
You're just complaining about complaining
You're just complaining about complaining
People are freaking out about
People who are freaking out about
People are freaking out about everything
Top fans are saying for the next 10 minutes let's get outraged,
But not diminish an endless feed of oh my God
Did you see what he said, what she did way back in 2013?
You like and share without addressing the problem
Thumbs blazing, bullshit rainin’
You're just complaining about complaining
You're just complaining about complaining
People are freaking out about
People who are freaking out about
People are freaking out about everything
People are freaking out about
People who are freaking out about
People are freaking out about everything

Imperfect Lines
04:10

If I reach into the darkest corners of my mind
And pull out something I never wanted anyone to find
Would I be cast out for the times that I drew imperfect lines
Secrets secrets not much fun
When you're the only one aware you're a part of one
Can you ever really empathize
Do your eyes even see clearly past your pride?
Oh no,
I didn't think so.
If I reach into the darkest corners of my mind
And pull out something I never wanted anyone to find
Would I be cast out for the times that I drew imperfect lines
Tell me all your secrets it'll be so fun,
Pretending to be unaware that you can never know someone.
Sorry if this shit is sounding bleak,
Just change the filter on it and continue to ignore the fact that
Every body lives with personal disgrace no fault or fortune to explain it away
If I reach into the darkest corners of my mind
And pull out something I never wanted anyone to find
Would I be cast out for the times that I drew imperfect lines
Every body lives with personal disgrace no fault or fortune to explain it away,
I've heard the lies of those who claim the light basking in a setting sun soon to be overcome by night Who are you when no ones watching
