Lyrics

Stare at my reflection like is this what I've become?
Feeling distant, feeling stuck, wishing I could fucking run
But I'm sinking by the minute, how much longer till I'm numb?
I know one day I'll be stable, on two feet and out the dumps
I'm being patient, getting faded off the blunts and making statements
I ain't holding back the way that I feel like I've done for ages
Fuck the anguish, fuck depression, fuck the things that make me anxious
Ain't a lot for me to do but spill my heart into creations
And escape to better places, by painting my state of mind
I've been aiming for greater heights, on the stage I'll be changing lives
I know I have what it takes, see I've grown attached to the game
So the only path I'ma take is me going mad on the page
And the passion will never fade, but the sadness will come in waves
I got habits I need to break, and got dragons I need to slay
I'm in the rain and I'm hanging on, even if I can't belong
I'll carry on, ain't putting down this pen until the pain dissolves
Lost in my head, looking for an escape
I don't wanna pretend like I've been in the best place
Cutting off the deadweight, what's it take to feel alive
If it's only an imbalance, I'll survive
Gotta thrive in the madness, rise from the ashes
I'm not the kid I was thanks to life, but it happens
Masking my pain will only get me so far
So I gotta come clean, shine a light in this darkness
I just don't know how much more I can take
Day after day depression's stirring up a storm in my brain
I feel it course through my veins, I feel it deep in my chest
But I ain't losing faith that I can put these demons to rest
I need to express the way I feel cause if I don't I'ma lose it
Alone in my room every night putting my soul in the music
Is so therapeutic, hope it'll bring me closer to blooming
I know I can do it, but in the end I only am human
Gotta keep moving, keep pushing through the hardship
Tryna break the chains, I'm sick of feeling so lethargic
Enveloped in the darkness, ain't got nowhere to turn
Only got this microphone whenever I've finally found the words
To describe what I'm dealing with inside, I can't hide forever
Time isn't ever slowing down, might as well try and get better
I'm writing this letter for me and all the ones who relate
Feeling stuck in a maze, got a little something to say
Lost in my head, looking for an escape
I don't wanna pretend like I've been in the best place
Cutting off the deadweight, what's it take to feel alive
If it's only an imbalance, I'll survive
Gotta thrive in the madness, rise from the ashes
I'm not the kid I was thanks to life, but it happens
Masking my pain will only get me so far
So I gotta come clean, shine a light in this darkness
