The Fall

Lyrics:
It took me three whole weeks just to write this song
Motivation’s dripping, I’m starting to fall
I haven’t felt like this in so long
And today was supposed to be different
So why isn’t today any different
Am I supposed to learn from my past mistakes?
And how am I supposed to smile everyday?
When I don’t even know what’s going on in my brain
And sometimes it feels like I’m going insane
And oh, why can’t I wish upon a star
Without thinking of my innocence that has since fallen down so far
Why can’t I be alone at night
Without getting lost in the depths of my mind
Oh why aren’t I alright
Why can’t I wake up every morn
Without thinking of the stuff I should mourn
I just wanna move on with my life
I’m sleeping in last nights clothes again
And I’m rattling through my phone again
Haven’t brushed my teeth in a bit
Haven’t washed my face in a bit
Haven’t showered in a little while
Because when I shower I don’t have to smile
So I’m alone with my scary thoughts
No one there to distract me, just my thoughts
(Next day)
I’m sleeping in last nights clothes again
And I’m rattling through my phone again
Haven’t brushed my teeth in a bit
Haven’t washed my face in a bit
Haven’t showered in a little while
Because when I shower I don’t have to smile
So I’m alone with my scary thoughts
No one there to distract me, just my thoughts
Am I falling back to where I was last year
An incurable feeling that just happened to appear
It’s severe, and I can’t find a way out of this rut that I’m stuck in, nobody hears my shouts
A depressive state
That no matter what won’t seem to go away
My confidence and sanity rapidly decay
Is today the day I lose my brain?

Relax

Lyrics:
Fuck, I can’t even try to relax
Without thinking of shit that’s gonna go wrong next
My brain is overactive and it makes me perplexed
Why was I “blessed” with a brain that refuses to rest
Listen
I don’t know what the point is anymore
If every time I sit down I think about everything in store for me
Now relaxing is boring for me
‘Cause I gotta get up, get at it
Until I’m soaring on the charts, see
They tell me the brain can’t think about two things at once
So how come when I have down time I’m thinking of everything at once
Friendships, homework, shit my chest is starting to hurt
Deep breaths, deep breaths, shit I need to take a breath
(Breath)
When I sit, I feel like I need to stand up
But when I stand up, I feel like I need to sit down
I go back and forth, I get stuck in a loop
I end up doing nothing and just standing around
And even when I finally sit down
My anxiety plagues me, I feel like imma drown
‘Cause I can’t stop thinking, I can’t stop thinking ‘bout stuff
My brain calls my bluff, so I just sit thinking ‘bout stuff
Shit now my hands twitching
Shit now I’m heavy breathing
Shit now my arm feels so damn numb
I feel so dumb, I feel so dumb
Constant heart attack in my left arm
sometimes breathing gets a little hard
My mind is always nervous, my mind always gets on guard
So I just sit just to sit and write these bars
Shit my eye started to twitch again
Why do I have to live my life so god damn stressed
If God is out there can He please tell me my purpose
What’s the point of this? Fuck what is my fucking purpose
(more breathing)

Grounded

Lyrics:
At sixteen I shouldn’t be having existential thoughts
But here I am, thinking that my mental health was just a farce
It’s all a front I wake up every morning and put this familiar mask on
They say I’ve dealt with worse but in this moment this feels like my last one
Do you know what it’s like, to beg to cry
To pray to weep to whatever the fuck is in the sky
“Don’t stray from god’s path” they say, then wave your problems away
And take your money just to watch and smile as your mental sanity decays
There are certain times when I wish I did drugs
Cause, the escape it must give‘s gotta be sublime
But until the stars align I plug away at depression
Hiding behind these rhymes undermines the pain of my minds inventions and interventions
My mind is a hurricane
But you keep me grounded
Thoughts are crashing down like falling rain
But you keep me grounded
I don’t feel anything anymore
But there you are, waving me into the shore, once more
My mind is a hurricane
But you keep me grounded
Feelings are hard these days
I’m always on my guard these days
I can’t show my heart these days
I can’t play my part these days
No one can know about my struggles
Ignorance is bliss
So instead I hide inside my mind and cry
This the part I won’t miss
Shit, I can’t do anything these days
It just seems like everything won’t go my way
My mood is swaying from day to day
All I feel is just grey
I’m feeling like I’m life’s favorite prey
My mind is a hurricane
But you keep me grounded
Thoughts are crashing down like falling rain
But you keep me grounded
I don’t feel anything anymore
But there you are, waving me into the shore, once more
My mind is a hurricane
But you keep me grounded
For twelve long months I’ve been stuck inside my brain
Insecurities running wild yet I smile through the pain
I’m just a child, why is this happening to me what does god have to gain
From taking everything from a kid with no name
Well screw him!
I’ll move through it, shine the lights, on my new future
I’ll make a new me, make the shoe fit, I don’t need a god just to moralize bullshit
Call me a wordsmith, I’m a new kid, rising out of the scattered ashes
I’m taking my chances, working off passion
I can’t fucking cry? Fine. Imma work faster.
Call me the master, the master disaster.
Now I got an answer, something to go after
This a new chapter, I’m no longer an actor
Playing my own life behind a mask made of laughter
Find solace in these rhymes, lines, it’s time for me to shine
Got you on my mind, reminding me I’m only in my prime
You only live once so make it your best life
Cut through the strife like a knife, ‘till the happiness is rife
(Yeah, Yeah) I’ve got my motivation
(Yeah, Yeah) I’m leaving God’s damnation
(Yeah, Yeah) I’ve reached my own salvation
(Yeah, Yeah) And I’m out of my stagnation
My mind is a hurricane
But you keep me grounded
Thoughts are crashing down like falling rain
But you keep me grounded
I don’t feel anything anymore
But there you are, waving me into the shore, once more
My mind is a hurricane
But you keep me grounded
