Lyrics

He noticed the gaunt features of something else
Watching him from a darkened portal
For a moment, the two were motionless
I feel like a
I feel like a
Feel like a creature, like a cryptid
These days kinda miss when I was addicted
Not because I miss the drugs. Don't miss shooting up
But I felt like a front man, like a rockstar
Feel like a creature, like a cryptid
These days kinda miss when I was addicted
Not because I miss the highs or the long nights
But I felt like the life of the party
I felt hot
Back in my 20s I was steady lifting
Benching 225 I felt legitimate
Tried to make the time to bench 175 today
Instead I sat at my desk and wrote rhymes today
The only 225 is on the scale now
I'm tryna learn how to dance
But I keep flailing around
I'm back in therapy to see if I can figure it out
This shit's embarrassing
I feel so North American
Feel like a creature, like a cryptid
These days kinda miss when I was addicted
Not because I miss the drugs. Don't miss shooting up
But I felt like a front man, like a rockstar
Feel like a creature, like a cryptid
These days kinda miss when I was addicted
Not because I miss the highs or the long nights
But I felt like the life of the party
I felt hot
I was getting high in the bathroom
Of my high school
Taking E in between PE and Biology
Wasn't easy but it felt like I was me
Teachers said that I was promising
Advised me on college degrees
They saw potential
Instead I worked in coffee for 10 years
And went mental
What was I doing all these years?
I can't remember
I feel really weird
I can't find my center
And I feel like I'm not supposed to say that
Because like
I would hate to be the reason
An addict justifies continuing to use drugs
It's just like
Feel like a creature, like a cryptid
These days kinda miss when I was addicted
Not because I miss the drugs. Don't miss shooting up
But I felt like a front man, like a rockstar
Feel like a creature, like a cryptid
These days kinda miss when I was addicted
Not because I miss the highs or the long nights
But I felt like the life of the party
I felt hot
I feel like a
This concludes Side A of Cryptid
Flip the cassette over to Side B for The End
