Yo, I'm trying to sleep
Feel like I've been high for a week
The lows creep up on you
As soon as you
Rise to the peak
I'm fine but I'm weak
From all the nights trying to sleep
My mind's designed to overthink
I'm just desiring peace
Lions don't keep secrets
Then again, lions don't think
I'm trying to keep calm
In these waters
Either fight or you sink
And the drugs
Just weigh me down
My fucking mind's on the brink
Of breaking down
I've weighed my options
And I'm trying to think
Trying to numb a crazy town
Here's my number, take it down
And in advance, I apologize
That I couldn't make it out
But the blacks and whites of life
Have turned to grey, I'm faded out
And my perfect world exists
I simply twist it, break it down
Light it up, and pretend
Everything's okay for now
Jack, I'm back to my old ways
No one can save me now
Yo, I'm awakened at night
I tried to make this shit right
I do buy drugs
That take me to Arabian heights
Afraid of the light
So I sleep the day away
And at night
I fade into a grave
Made of disabling vibes
Darker place than
Where the demons play
Oh shit, I didn't mean to say
F*ck it, guess it doesn't
Even matter really
Either way
I roll my weed in Jay's
You could even call me Peter Haze
I'm tired of the liars
Drug suppliers, and deceiving ways
I rap cold in my own zone
Spit fire, and I freeze the stage
Half my friends are dead
And half my friends
Have blackened needle veins
We need a change
Nobody wants to admit
Sheep walk in herds
Accepting, never acknowledging shit
What's awkward is this
Mainstream is really
Fucking mumble rap
Was catchy, didn't stick
They dropped the ball
I leave them under bats
Electric bar on top of bar
Shock these pussies, Thundercats
Jumped out of the game
And I'm still spending
Last summer's racks
