Lyrics
Every couple years or so, I tend to go insane a bit
Barely keeping track of minor details in the main events
Soon enough, I might just lose it
Got some talent, need to prove it
How's a dude that's by himself and unknown gonna start a movement?
I move magically between cool and insanity
Give this dude a pen and he'll be quick to create a masterpiece
Tooting on my own horn I purchased at a pawn shop
Mountain climb against the avalanche until I'm on top
Not much of a yes man, I'm too busy asking why not?
Dedicated most my life to give vision to blind spots
Used to spend a lot of time wandering, wondering
Then I realized you can't make moves constantly stumbling
When I lost my best friend, it was honestly humbling
Tried to stand tall on quicksand and rocks that were crumbling
I was underneath the impression that people get better
It all collapsed when he relapsed and he left us forever
But I'm the type of dude that doesn't let nothing affect me, right?
Ever since it happened, I've been drinking almost every night
That was years ago, it's crazy how some things just stick with you
The planet keeps spinning, there's some shit you gotta get through
I wish that I was big enough to say look at me now
But I'm no one and I'm nowhere and this empty room's my crowd
I'll keep talking to these walls until the words knock em down
Walk around for long enough, them horns are gonna sound
Won't stop until it stops...
When the planet floods, hopefully I'm watching from the top
Won't stop until it stops...
I'll be jumping off the ledge whether I'm ready to or not
Every couple years or so, I tend to go insane a bit
Barely keeping track of what month, week, or day it is
Soon enough, I might just find it
Day by day, I get reminded
That the ink is running out on this old pen I sign the times with
I find silence only when I'm in completely seclusion
Started this shit out of boredom, now it's used for self improvement
I'd start a revolution if I thought it'd make a difference
But human beings repeat history's inane existence
I start to change and shift it, if it isn't right for me
All it takes is one drum the kick, the sparks ignite in me
Righteously, I write until the light gets too bright see
Always working, and if y'all deserve it, then it might release
Might increase the fanbase if I just went outside more often
Too much on my mind for now, so that is not a valid option
Not really one for talking, rather write it down and rap it
Always been inside of me, just had to find it then extract it
Analyze it. Overthink it though, it's over quick
Put your all in it, go hard as fuck or really don't commit
Won't submit to all this self doubt, but it's kinda constant
Pretty sure the walls are talking about me every time I walk in
It feels impossible, tripping over obstacles
Studied my mistakes on game tape, that shit's unwatchable
Turn it off and move along, build upon whatever's left
Every night, day dreaming, feeling like I've never slept
