I'm well aware that my future is finite,
By night I'm laying awake,
Delaying my fate, laying in wait
For the day that I'm burned
When I play with the flames,
Never taking a break,
Making mistakes and I'm paving a way
For the trouble coming down my road
Worry pulling sound back down my throat
Drowned in the quicksand, get that rope
Get me out sadness, madness wrote
Every address that depressed I'd throw
Up to the sky, couldn't let that go
Every bit of envy I'd let that grow
Covering my face of regrets that show,
Though I'm set to blow, with the music
I kept it low, buried underground
One step below,
Next scene, still tripping over past loves
Everybody on drugs, fighting up in packed clubs,
Life going fast so I really wanna ask does
It ever slow enough to give a chance for a catch up
With mates we don't speak no more,
Life was a beach, now when I see it I don't seem so sure
All of us are caught up, dealing with our deck of cards,
Heavy hearts, broken up, repeatedly collect the parts.
Certain losses hit hard in October, I was not sober
Drinking had me knocked over,
Losing myself to any woman I felt,
Dancing on me in the dark I tell you none of it helped,
It got plenty worse, self value same as a penny's worth
But this aint any verse, and every curse dispersed
On the 21st, a new spark rose in the night,
So we gave it time to grow and it's now glowing so bright
I even showed the poems I write, that's a big deal
And this feel appears like I know that it's right,
So I've gone into enjoying from just coping with life
From the old nightmares I aint woken with fright,
That's a good thing, I only know what I know
That we are so young, so let's only go with the flow
The present is a gift at this moment in time,
And I can't say it all rapping appropriate rhymes
