[Intro]

You’re so obnoxious, just knock it off already

You’re so incompetent

You’re at the bottom of the list, they’ll never bother with this

Just call it quits and jump off of a cliff


[Hook]

I hear the comments and all of the other nonsense

My conscience is under stress, it’s mess and I’m out of options

I’m locked in a box with my thoughts

Distraught from the conflict

I’m fallin’ into a dark abyss, target missed

Now I’m unconscious


[Verse 1]

I feel like I belong in a coffin

Mom is watchin’

Tryna balance out the scale

I prevailed when I dropped in a couple toxins

Now my losses are long forgotten

It’s like I’ve fallen in a void and I can’t avoid it

Playing with toys that make bangin’ noises

Point blank, one shot, blood sprays

Grey matter on the floor

He kept saying that I don’t matter anymore

Brain’s scattered and I’m torn

Getting to the point where there’s no saving me

Got the drank and weed to put the pain at ease

Feel the shake in my knees after taking these

It’s plain to see he’s tryna take me away

And if you wait for the day, please save your piece

It’s too late, I’m encased in planks

Say less at my wake, I’m sleep

What a great relief

Couple tabs tonight, I’ma dance in the moonlight

Too bright to be doomed with a gloomy sight

Still brooding from noon to night

I bet these niggas thought they knew me, right?

I’ve been off with Lucy, stop intruding us

Thoughts of beauty talkin’ to me, uh

Watchin’ movies, got ‘em muted, yuh

Got some tunes, some awesome music

Drop was loopin’ smoothly

Man, I’m awfully looney (Crazy)

Been ahead of my peers, been fucked in the head

It appears I got sucked into fear

Shit snuck from the rear

Same stuff’s been stuck in my ears

I’ve been duckin’ the mirrors

Don’t trust my appearance, nah

Swervin’ off of the street

I forgot how to steer, I’m lost

No luck, I can hear the cops

One of two was dead soon, guess who?

Never planned to make a mess this huge

He didn’t get to choose, I’m in the best of moods

And they gon’ blame it on the melanin

Fuck it, let ‘em then

I just need a little medicine

I'm hearin' voices all around me

Think it's Mary and Lucy, they're screamin' “Let us in!"

Fifth of Whiskey, pour it up and mix the fluids in with the influences inside my head again


[Bridge]

There’s no need for an opposite

The darkness is dominant

I know you wanna rot and have your name and a comment written on cement

Just load the Glock and pop a shot

I promise it’s lit


[Hook]

I hear the comments and all of the other nonsense

My conscience is under stress, it’s mess and I’m out of options

I’m locked in a box with my thoughts

Distraught from the conflict

I’m fallin’ into a dark abyss, target missed

Now I’m unconscious


[Verse 2]

The end is nigh, I’ve been—

I’ve been feelin’ like I’m next to die, but then—

But then my momma would be petrified

When the rope around my neck is tied

I really hope she can let it slide

That’s selfish

God dammit man, I really couldn’t help it

Only 12 when he fell in the pit, thinking “Welp, this is it.”

6/12 was his welcome to Hell, he wasn’t well equipped

Young hermit, he kept to himself like the shellfish did, aye

It really did help for bit

Until he really needed help with this shit

Yeah, he really needed help with his mental health

He never felt so sick

Quick, lemme get a cell phone pic for the Gram

Same fit, same self-loathing kid that they’ll never understand, nah

Fuck, my mind is racin’

I might escape this if the timing’s great, shit

I’m tryna pace it, need a mind eraser

The kind that’s laced with—

(Wait, it’s hitting me)

Never mind, now I’m flyin’ in space and they won’t find this place

I’ma hide my face so don’t try to chase me

Was I right to make this?

I’ve made quite the statement

8th grade I was writing pages

Wrote a comic book

Then one day it was confiscated

Gave the counselor a look at everything that’s going on in this brain

Feeling lost and insane

Even on the brightest days, deep inside was a writhing pain

And my mind was made when all the cries of anguish outweighed all the ties I’ve made

My life was hangin’

Then my mind had changed when the light from my sight had faded

Thought maybe if I tried to hang tight for a bit, I could find my greatness

Tryna fight temptation

Why you think I’m impatient, and hate when my time is wasted?

My heart’s been plagued with hatred

Never been the type to pray

No faith in the lies or enslavement that ties into Christ or Satan
