歌詞
Feels like the world's waiting and I'm still debating
Whether or not I'm really worthy of the shit I'm chasing
Live in a house of mirrors feeling fearful of escaping
See dark reflections in the water of these different faces
They all belong to me they judging me in every way
And say that I won't amount to nothing without motivation
Look for serenity in everything that I'm creating
But I'm making ripples in water and they're too abrasive
In every line I write I'm searching for gratification
I used to get it every verse but it's slowly fading
Now I'm lucky if I get it every three tracks
Some people say I should relax but I ain't complacent
You should take a step back bro like just be patient
Success ain't going nowhere it don't take a vacation
But they don't hear what I hear they don't see what I see in front of me
A hall of mirrors and a wall of hatred
Screaming
Every crack, every crevice
Every flaw, every blemish
We reflect it, yeah
We reflect it, yeah
On every scar we squeeze lemons
And know your heart is so selfish
Everything you try to hide we reflect it
Nothing will ever be enough, accept it
Pools of water, I swim harder
Against the current but the current's only getting stronger
And I'm fighting myself but know that I never falter
Every corner of my mind is only getting darker
Cuz nothing ever seems to cut it guess I ain't a barber
I'm trying to grow myself up but I ain't a farmer
Been trying to ball but don't feel good enough to be a starter
This pen cuts like a sword but it could still be sharper, shit
Drowning in mirrors I can't see the surface
No matter where I go I'm insecure and always nervous
Cuz everything I see turns into a reflective surface
Always comparisons it's this or that it's always me versus the world
I fight back with verses, and know that I rap with purpose
To build me up, to be assertive
Chasing success as compensation for the ways I'm hurting
I used to know my purpose, but now I'm not so certain
Chasing a dream but it's feeling more like a burden
Like do I really want this shit or am I only nursing
All of the scars that I left on myself?
Another rhyme hits the page, is it good for my health?
Cuz my mind's in a cage, it's all in a cell
And everyone who's ever hurt me blame it all on myself
I hope I still have the key cuz it's all my perception but I never seem to get past my own reflection
Screaming
Every crack, every crevice
Every flaw, every blemish
We reflect it, yeah
We reflect it, yeah
On every scar we squeeze lemons
And know your heart is so selfish
Everything you try to hide we reflect it
Nothing will ever be enough, accept it
Every crack, every crevice
Every flaw, every blemish
We reflect it, yeah
We reflect it, yeah
On every scar we squeeze lemons
And know your heart is so selfish
Everything you try to hide we reflect it
Nothing will ever be enough, accept it
Reach out, touch darkness
Scream out, catharsis
No luck, just hardness
Fucked up, I'm heartless
No joy, departed
Want love but, I'm heartsick
Want change but, we starless
So can't wish can't change that's honest
Won't go, I promise
But this feeling, feels chronic
Wish I was so flawless
Still wish that I was modest
Neglected, forgotten
Still waiting but I'm lost
And I can't find solace
Save me, save me
Iso
Lation
My own
Making
Push everyone
Away and
Keep grinding
Keep pacing
Fuck bullshit
Time wasting
Thoughts brewing
Mind racing
Can't do it
I'm faking
I'm a let-down
Disgracing
Everyone I know
All over
Family and friends
Don't notice
That I miss them
And I hate me
So hard just to see this face in the mirror
I'm waiting
Cuz I love you
I just wish I
Felt the same way
Feels like I lost everyone
I don't know who to
Talk to so I just
Stay alone and
Reach out, touch darkness
Scream out, catharsis
No luck, just hardness
Fucked up, I'm heartless
No joy, departed
Want love but, I'm heartsick
Want change but, we starless
So can't wish can't change that's honest
Won't go, I promise
But this feeling, feels chronic
Wish I was so flawless
Still wish that I was modest
Neglected, forgotten
Still waiting but I'm lost
And I can't find solace
Save me, save me
