So down
Spinning round and round and round
Come down
Taking steps I’m lifting off the ground
So down
Spinning round and round and round
Go down
Make it back to where you once were found
It’s like I want to be regarded as a letdown with a smile and a target
These fake bitches are retarded
I’m sorry but I’ve been dismissed
It’s fucking gnarly
Just being honest
When will I be seen as the artist I am
Got so much passion it could kill me
I’m just trying to stay humble, respectful and truly modest
So down
Spinning round and round and round
Come down
Taking steps I’m lifting off the ground
So down
Spinning round and round and round
Go down
Make it back to where you once were found
Sometimes I think that it’s my fault and when I get down the walking turns into crawling
I’m sobbing again on the couch and when I look back I think that nothing’s happening
How have we still not learned from this?
It’s crazy
The only outlet is my journaling and yea you know I’m still burnin’ em
Indica sativa don’t matter just roll it up my man
So down
Spinning round and round and round
Come down
Taking steps I’m lifting off the ground
So down
Spinning round and round and round
Go down
Make it back to where you once were found

We all struggle in our own way
It’s true
Attacking rappers I’m coming back with another album
September 7th almost took me when I reached the bottom
So hollow
Posted up within these 4 walls
Inspired by him then but now the inspiration doesn’t blossom
Heading home I think back to when to when it didn’t matter
I’m an insomniac
I can’t relax
Stacking racks on racks
It’s like I’m under attack
Life is short so how the fuck am I ever gonna make it back?
I took some time and I entered another galaxy
If I did more gimmicks then y’all would probably follow me
I know nothing see?
My hands is clean and I ain’t nothing like society
Sobriety is all my cousin Matty needs
I wanna tell him I know then help him get beneath
Listen up cuz
Finally start to breathe
The cure for depression is hidden
Sick of acting
This time I’m not gon run it back and if you gon mention my name make sure you make it happen
Ready for a bigger spot when it arrives but then again I’m only praying to God
Hoping and asking
Like Aladdin with Jasmine in my arms in heaven
11:11
I think it’s time to go to bed man
I’m on bed rest and overwhelmed with all the stresses
I’m guessing the cure for depression is hidden below the ocean in a shell where all the coral is sitting
I’m missing out on the journey you on and this song is meant to bring you peace of mind when I’m gone
Attempted to find the truth in this world through a girl
I never wanted to pretend that it hurt
Bizurk
Trying to ball just like Dirk
I’m pushing on ‘cause I’m driven to reach the top ya heard?
Markeise is doing it huge
The bliss is undeterred
The cure for depression is hidden

Bliss

Searching for bliss in these midnight hymns
Casting my shadow thin
Can you guide me miss?
I am a fragile kin
Lost on a sinking ship
Lately I’ve been trying to get back but flip floppin’ never ever really works out the way you want it or imagined
So take a stab and give ’em everything you got until the battles ending
Depending on the type of mood that I’m in maybe I’ll write a couple verses
Use the ink in this pen
What if I’m gone?
Would you think then?
Our relationship was perfect
Would you call us friends?
Searching for bliss in these midnight hymns
Casting my shadow thin
Can you guide me miss?
I am a fragile kin
Lost on a sinking ship
I’ve been away for too long
I’ve been away from everyone that I love and it’s harder to stay strong
The medication the doctor put me on is nothing like that Percocet I loved
I’m giving hugs everytime I say goodbye ‘cause I’m freightened that the next day I will die
Please help me feel alive
Not deprived and while you’re at it let me strive to survive
Searching for bliss in these midnight hymns
Casting my shadow thin
Can you guide me miss?
I am a fragile kin
Lost on a sinking ship

I’ve been thinking lately about how tragedy strikes
Messed up how things change in a single moment
Slowly falling behind I swear I can’t focus
Completely out of my mind
Feel like I’m always cold and it’s 8:46
Are we all lost and broken?
I’m the voice of all the youth that feels like they’re dead
8:46 am was when it all began
Using this ink to tell my story and vent
I’m on edge ‘cause 20 years ago a tragic event
Shocked the world
3000 people died
Some suicide
Others were risking their lives
I cried on the night that I saw the real footage
The FDNY are nothing short of heroes
Man it’s all so boggling
Messed up how things change in a single moment
Slowly falling behind I swear I can’t focus
Completely out of my mind
Feel like I’m always cold and it’s 8:46
Are we all lost and broken?
The sadness consumes me and eludes when I start thinking back to all the lives that we lost
Tell me what’s the ultimate cost when a country is invaded with no regard
Completely charred and scarred from a single day
It seems impossible how each building collapsed that way
The facts they say are all so fake
Still I wonder how America changed?
Messed up how things change in a single moment
Slowly falling behind I swear I can’t focus
Completely out of my mind
Feel like I’m always cold and it’s 8:46
Are we all lost and broken?
