| Talking to myself, I say self, we need a change
|
| The kind that gets you excited to face to the new day,
|
| Waking up, while eating breakfast, keep the blood sugar high,
|
| Fill my nalgene with ice so my throat doesn’t get dry,
|
| It’s only 10:30 and my chest is getting tight,
|
| Focus on my breathing squinting in the bright light,
|
| We’ve got errands to run, pay bills to fill potholes,
|
| So it’s smooth sailing on the long road,
|
| Finally shaking off last night’s performance,
|
| A poor man’s version of a life filled with torment,
|
| By lunchtime you’re already exhausted,
|
| You’re ready for a nap and some TV. |
| nonsense,
|
| But I can’t afford cable so I only get the basic channels,
|
| Who knows how much this more this broken antenna can handle,
|
| Skip the nap and devil box, there’s work to be done,
|
| Kill the past with the motivation cause these problems weigh a ton,
|
| I’m trying to get some motivation,
|
| If you see me broken down and I’ve lost my stride, tell me everything will be allright
|
| Just tell me evev
|
| The repetition will get you, if you don’t handle it right,
|
| But I’m not in the position to be giving out advice,
|
| Cause by the afternoon the anxiety blooms,
|
| So I’ll skip work today so I can give myself room,
|
| To catch the sunset, my doctor prescribed one a day,
|
| Helps to fight the infection of reality’s evil ways,
|
| It pays to be persistent, to be a story of success,
|
| So I’m rapping to get this tension out of my chest,
|
| Blessed by karma’s opposite, holding it down,
|
| Trying to put positive back on the map,
|
| Relax, by cooking dinner; |
| take it step by step,
|
| It’s been eleven hours straight still haven’t slept,
|
| When things get crossed off the list, the panic drifts,
|
| Away from my nervous system, where my heartbeats sips,
|
| My attitude to fuel my passion for music,
|
| I’ll give the world a throwaway and give you the exclusive,
|
| If you see me trying to move, don’t let me lose my stride.
|
| I hit the sheets when no one’s looking,
|
| Been flying solo lately,
|
| I stopped cheating on myself,
|
| Now I’m sleeping like a baby, |
