lyrics

Ya,
when I pass through,
ever get the feeling everyone is watching you?
Can't hear much, tunes turned up.
Ear buds are hugging me, loving me as I strut
bumping cuts. Wave hello, say the words.
Maybe nod 'what's up', but the truth is
I don't give enough, not even a single fuck.
Maybe introverted like I murdered a social occurrence,
maybe only fervent of some pertinent persons. Ya.
I'm cursed, can't read me.
I'm cursive, the pen's bleeding.
Unapproachable like you smoked a bowl,
like mutilated muted is your goal.
Shy, quiet, rhyme in silence.
Goin down as a pen, and I'm a pilot,
and I'm kind of in my mind kind of hidin'.
You say "KFB, F that.
You're a funny punk, you know that's a fact.
You're like Seinfeld, what's up with that?
You ain't depressed, you just overreact."
Well, maybe that's true.
Maybe chemicals in my soul are filled with coal,
growing old fast. You a whipper snap,
yellin' at kids to get off my grass
that I pack into snaps or a spliff that I pass
to the left, wait a sec that's still me.
Couldn't be.
I thought my friends were here but that was just the beat.
I thought my friends were here but that was just the beat.

[HOOK]
So look me in the eyes,
and tell me "surpise, in fact, you're alive.
in fact you never died, that was a lie.
Get out of the pit cuz it's time to rise."
So grab my hands and pull
time to make some gold
I've written a verse cold,
enriching my mind with this shit makes me whole,
makes me complete and whole.

And people won't admit that their clinical
cuz we all know that people are hella critical.
Gonna look you in the eyes and call you cynical,
"Just get over it, you'll never reach your pinnacle.
Cheer up, Bro! Stop being so pitiful.
If nothing's wrong at all why you acting invisible?"
What if I told you this is umbilical?
Hear my syllables:
imbalanced chemicals.
Not as crazy as Slim, not criminal.
Not overreaction, don't need Benadryl,
just time to chill and kick it atypical.
Put the beat on loop, cyclical.
Get whimsical with the quill is how I deal.
If you need a pill that's fine
when it's replacing the knife.
Maybe get physical,
hop on the elliptical,
maybe go to church,
if you like being biblical.
If you need advice, analytical ain't the way to go
if you're trapped inside of that citadel,
trapped inside your mind
dwelling on the times that you missed the boat.
Why your life sucks, getting empirical.
Add up your bad times, now you're getting statistical.
Falling in the pit and it's subliminal.
Lash out to your friends, now you're getting inimical.
Thinking the hope's gone and it's unequivocal,
asking God "why me? why do you ridicule?"
It's a riddle for most so we're all very quizzical,
know you're not alone though we all individuals.
Let the people know this shit ain't minimal,
call bullshit if they sayin' that it's mythical.
And try your hardest to fight back,
believe me, I know that it's difficult.

[HOOK] x2
