Lyrics:

I take, one step in, two steps back
When I, want to live, I wanna rap
But I’ve, drunk my gin, jumped my jacks
So my mind can’t give, it’s gone to black
Try to make it a game, maybe make it easy
Lapping at the crumbs gone and made me queasy
Every corner taken I’ve seen the sleazy
I’ve seen them seize me, no need for repeat

I’ve seen, greener leaves atop trees with weak feet
I’ve seen, seas of wheat possess less than a meek bean
So if fields yield nothing, my thoughts are nothing
I’m lost and stumbling across jaunts and juggling
Haunts are humbling? You haven’t seen my ghosts
Most like to brag, go and hear them boast
They want the struggling, it seals their boat
You don’t know the rumblings of a demon’s throat

The deepest moat
You’ll drown in there, or be beaten broke
He’ll cut your own
And leave you there, with nothing known
A heathen’s pope
Spoken silent, no bleat or croak
The steepest slope
He is the noose, no need for rope

[Chorus 1]
It’s a beast with a guttural voice, trying to stop me
Gets in my ear then mutters oh so softly
My fears and anxieties hardened my heartbeat
Every time I let him win, it comes back and haunts me

See it’s a soul devil that plays with knots in my brain
He ties some up taught, lays thoughts down to stay
I’m caught in these ways, I stop and delay
But I won’t rot and decay ‘til I’m shot or I’m slain

Yet I can’t find my way, and damn I’m tired…
Got a crooked spine, my mouth is drier
I’m moving forward, into hooks and briars
Any progress made, the flames creep higher

On top of the pyre, the property I’m proprietor
My father I lye at yours, my mother I’d die for
I wonder sometimes if mine will be prior yours
I’d never try, but my mind’s in a fire forest

Burning limbs, crash to ground
Path is blocked, passing out
Turning dim, they’re laughing loud
Last I saw is the clapping crowd
That dream gave drive, newly found
I stopped wasting time, no fool around
I’ll make music loud, ‘til I’m duly crowned
‘Til no one’s there to tell me I’m allowed

Forced to pick between a cap and gown
Or a life on low, trapped in town
So hours every day I get my practice rounds
So go ahead, try and track it now

I’m allured by sins, but there’s a time and place
Though I strive to win, it’s a tempting bait
When I feed my tastes, I feed him I hate
It’s a fleeting feeling, it will seal your fate

Making progress is like a meal I ate
On the back of my tongue I still got the taste
I’m damn hungry, but I won’t steal a plate
I earn my food and I’ll be eating great
I can’t sit idle, can’t heel or wait
I need the title, I see the date
Don’t need no bible, don’t need no grace
I feed the fire as I hear him chase

Though he can’t be silenced he can be drowned out
I will be outspoken, keep an unbroken shout
An unopened mouth leads to an awoken doubt
An unspoken mouth leads to an unfocused route

I try and waste no hours, minutes, no seconds
Keep a pace, willpower, and live it in essence
Shake the cowardice, cynics, infections
Break, out-power the wicked that beckons

[Chorus 2]
It’s a beast with a guttural voice, trying to stop me
Gets in my ear then mutters oh so softly
My fears and anxieties hardened my heartbeat
Every time I let him win, it comes back and haunts me

See it’s a soul devil that plays with knots in my brain
He ties some up taught, lays thoughts down to stay
I’m caught in these ways, I stop and delay
But I won’t rot and decay ‘til I’m shot or I’m slain

There’s plenty of chains, locked to my feet
But at the end is a stone ball, no wall to defeat
It’s two tons of extra weight, but don’t let that deceive
I don’t need to win no race, but I sure must complete
So go roll up them sleeves, and show ‘em my teeth
And damn it’s a sight that some hate to see
Cuz when a motherfucker down, but he still bringing heat
They feel like a clown, they feel like a cheat

I got the grind but it’s not a skill
It don’t come natural, ain’t something you build
It’s a choice you make, and most don’t take it
You ain’t sad enough, and your life you don’t hate it
You rather be painless, your focus is aimless
You have no patience, and you choose laziness
Too easy on yourself with too many breaks
So you continue to fuck up and remake mistakes

In life, there’s pain and addiction
You ain’t gonna be happy, there’s no use in faking
Remember next time you want that vacation
How shit you’ll feel, how lonely and vacant
Those you love most can be gone in an instant
That’s an addiction dangerous and persistent
I hear it every fucking night my brain is insistent
I want so much to cave but I remain resistant

I’m exhausted constantly
There’s no feeling well-rested
I’m accosted with thoughts of me
And it dwells on endless
You can’t suspend this
Tried to surrender this
It goes on relentless
But I am meant for this
Assume I’m petulant, you’re the pestilence
Design your hell fit for your acceptance
I pay no penance, nor need repentance
Keep to yourself when you fail to see life’s essence

A pill won’t work, and talking does nothing
How long should I try the gym as I keep on running?
Friends drugs and love, distracts for some time
After they end I start to decline
I accept that it won’t stop and there’s work to be done
I accept that I won’t stop and I’ve only begun
I accept that now’s not the time for love
I accept that there’s nothing I am in need of
