[Intro: Sample]

If you don't mind, we'd like to play somethin' for ya. 1-2-3-4

[Verse 1]

Came a long way from Guitar Hero mics

I was growing up alone tryin' hard to decipher

The meaning alongside walkin' through life

With my hands on my head and my heart in a vice

Or something crushing

I've been on the up and up and up again

Hauntin' something I don't know the name of through my ugly limbs

I'm wanderin' wonderin' where did I go

Wanderin' wonderin' where is my ghost

If I died a long time ago where would it go

'Cause I don't feel alive in this world

But I'll cope through drugs and escapism

All that I know, is I don't feel satisfied living alone

I don't feel satisfied being myself

No, I don't feel satisfied going through hell

So I arose in the morning with a true hope in me

Tryna bring change like the new Pope simply

Never understood why my crew coped with me

Until I realized they were all a few clones of me

And that's fine 'long as these rap lines make me

Fun dude to be around they'll still stay, see

Then my fanbase doubled in a month

While I slept all day, catching rest y'all'd say

But, truthfully I was so stupidly sat in a state of anxiety spewing these raps

From my mind to the paper, to you and then back

'Til it no longer sounded like me on the track

When I listen to it, my issues had exited it

Took the express from my brain to the exodus

Traveled for miles on a path through my head

Discovering questions and asking them

[Hook]

When my friends came knockin'

I'm in bed

I z-z-z pretend I'm dead

Sayin' Atlas isn't here he's traversing his regrets

No, Atlas isn't here he's reversing the effects of..

Friends come knocking

I'm in bed

I z-z-z pretend I'm dead

Cause Atlas isn't here he's just searching for his meds

No, Atlas isn't here he's obsessing over death

[Outro]

See the, the moral of the story is I- I guess that things are gonna get better, and then they're probably gonna get worse again but, in the long run the better times tend to out-weigh the worse ones. And I'm not a philosopher or, definitely not a genius of any sort. But I am a well spoken rap artist on the internet and from experience I can pretty confidently say that shit's gonna improve somehow so, just, do- do what you gotta do I guess you know like... Do what you gotta do. Make yourself happy. As long as it's not illegal. That's a- that's a debate for another time whatever, I'm out
