The world has a red tint
from the blood in my eyes.
Polarizing thoughts that I try to humanize.
Like - when I see a baby, I tune out the cries -
Injustices in the world and I try to compromise.
But who the fuck am I?
And how the fuck I dare?
If I don’t miss a word I mean every breathe that I air.
I try not to compare -
but I see the legends.
I haven’t wrote in months I’m afraid of my confessions -
I try to put my pride away,
But I’m thinking differently these days.
I’m thinking ahead, but forgetting about how I was raised.
Sober memories recalled from a drunken state -
These blurred lines leaves me in a twisted maze.
It feels like I’ve been in a coma for like 3 years.
They say time is money and I can say it sure is.
Time makes millions -
and millions make tears.
If I don’t reach the masses
I hope that you hear.
