Lyrics

They say you'll know that you've been on the right track

Cos the road will start to get lonely

Nobody told me I'd have an issue

Refraining from letting my anger control me

Warning you, don't follow closely

Don't let your ignorance lend you a reason to know me

Listen, cos you may regret it, I know I regret it

A terrible choice if you chose me

I never chose me, still I persist

I'm sick of watching the old me run away slowly

Coping by writing all night

Been the reason I never get no sleep

You'll see I get a bit intense, better watch it

I'll state it with faith, this my calling

Who I am, what you see, corresponding

Only thing that has changed, I'm evolving right now

Try to state my worth, I remain unheard

So I stay submerged in my hideout

A mistake, I've learned not to wait my turn

I've been patient, heard it's my time now

When I'm faced with hurt write a painful verse

Will it make it worse? imma find out

Wait, gotta stay alert, if the pain returns

Have to face it first or it's lights out

I'm not done

Swore to myself my time has come

Know who it is that I'll become

But the journey seen is a frightening one

Put my all into this, knew might get tough

Vividly, i've seen what complying does

When i'm caving on in or when life gets rough

I remind myself that the fights not done

Because this is all that I got, know I'm taking a risk

May never work, but I won't ever quit

Cos I can't live a life where I wonder "what if"

Living stuck with regret then I don't wanna live

You heard what I said, you don't like what I spit?

That's fine, I don't live to impress or imprint

I just rap what I feel and I keep it legit

Only time I unfold, only few get a glimpse

Of my mental state, if the work is not done I won't celebrate

I who they underestimate

I'm not getting paid back so I'm wanting pay back

What I give is not returned, never let it faze

I won't step away, such perpetuate

If I were in it for the cash, woulda never stayed

Then I made the record and I set it straight from my heart

Even in the end I can say that it'll never change

You play the puppeteer

I cut the strings in fear

Don't ever tell me how to feel

I'll make it crystal clear

Your truth is insincere

In spite, I persevere

If words could kill

I'd be the last on earth to disappear

I wear my heart out on my sleeves

You keep it camouflaged

My patience thinner than

The ice that you standing on

The passion forming

Is a topic I'll expand upon

This music now sustains

The beating of damaged heart

I don't care what they say

I did it for me, that stayed same

I've had it right now, better make way

It's been a while since I've had a great day

Seen the ones I loved all vacate

Enraged, but I maintain a straight face

I'm too far in it now to go change lanes

The main stage sold out, that's the main aim

Stakes raise, all the critics hit critical

I won't chase fame because it is formidable

I've been afraid it could shift me to cynical

Had a brainwave, Imma stick to my principles

Overthink too much and it isn't predictable

Had a sudden premonition but it isn't applicable

Yeah to go against me is to wish to be miserable

You won't live another minute if you're picking to ridicule, no

It shouldn't be this hard for me

to feel like I belong

Why don't I fit in here with the rest of you?

I've tried with my all

Still I'm just a broken man with a lot to say

So i'm writing this song

See, I used to race it

But now in all honesty I see time as a bomb

All cos at any second it could tear apart

your only fortress

And then leave you stranded

In the ruins of your own endorsement

The time care less of your thoughts or feelings

It's remorseless

We all take for granted what has value

Up until the storm hits

Now we listen

Like some kind of vast commission

If you were to step into my mind

Then you wouldn't last a minute

I put my trust into you

Never was clear that it may be a bad decision

I watched my happiness leave me to perish

I couldn't bear it, hurt me and it never asked permission?

That is gon make me angry

I fear it's too late to save me

My negative thoughts had made the tainting

My life is a painful painting

And although it ain't picture perfect I decide to hang it

A twisted mindset is my cry's replacement

I find the greatest strength in isolation

Music took my life away while it saved it, that's real

Struggling taught me a lesson

Struggling taught me expression

I was afraid that my audience wouldn't acknowledge my message

Scared that they wouldn't accept it

Left a dishonest impression, the mind is the base of deception

I do my best to forget it

I know that I'm dropping your jaw cos I'm probably not what you expected

I'm full of aggression, using it now as a weapon

Aiming for all that I'm destined

Grab it without any question

The darkest of times won't mean nothing when I'm coming back for redemption

This is my final confession

Feelings and thoughts are suppressed, and I've lost any means of progression

Not that I once had a choice

It's the world who constructed my presence

Forever a statue
