I Remain

I'm awake x2 I'm dreaming! x2 Aim for the sky I'm taking flight Man I just wanna take my time Shoulders, stress and the weight my mind could probably damn near break your spine I'm in another place when I rhyme I'm bleedin' holdin' the blade of a knife Escape in the night cloaked in the dark Runnin' in the puddles jump over the bars Demons breathin' down my neck I'm hearing screaming sound effects My heart is beatin' out my chest Spittin' blood lay down to rest Wrap me in a sheet and smoke me 'Cos I put the dope in dopey Lookin' ropey at my shows Then I rip up that stage like WHOA! Holy smokes, Father, son, Holy ghost Don't know me I'm OG though blend into the scene Like chameleons with an evil grin I don't need to win I don't need to be rich No I can't lose I'm just me when I spit I was once up late lean with a spliff Now I'm up at six-fifteen with the kids, Burnin' a candle night and day My mind feels like it's microwaved Tidal waves, Fire rains, Die in flames, I remain. I am then I am now I remain Move with it I don't really need time away Some are bowin' out others just hibernate Through the happiness and pain still, I remain.x2 Well it's the thirty-something back up off the couch again Round the bend and he's here to take you down a peg, I'll steal your girl from your arm and take her out to Greggs, Get a steak baked for her I am now the best. I'm in your head like a crown of thorns, Sound the horns, Once I approach who knows why you're proud of yours I found a ball made of crystal That's how I saw the future Veins hooked up to a power source. To get me out of bed you need a powder keg Competition all pissing down their trouser leg A pound of flesh No more no less I seek vengeance My head spins Jaw bone tense. Hate built up and then I saw no sense, Holdin' on, so I let go Meditate, elevate, Throw the shell away never say never mate On another level plain after I devastate. I am then I am now I remain Move with it I don't really need time away Some are bowin' out others just hibernate Through the happiness and pain still, I remain.x2
