Yo...

Unh!

Verse 1:

People ask me what I really want to be

They say "Timothy, tell me what do you see."

Five or ten years from now

I tell em, I wanna be this I wanna be that

I wanna sell 'em this game, I want to show 'em that I can rap

I came from game design, to keepin' people from gettin' jail time

Now it all boils down to this one and only rhyme

I say I want to get rich, but every time that I earn a dime

I spend it

I start a new chapter and I don't finish it

This one dream, I would hate to diminish it

But how can I accomplish it when I never finish shit!

I always start somethin' but I never finish

I got a thick list that I'm crumblin' with my fist

I take to heart something, but it's only just a wish

'Cause I can't clearly see success lyin' deep within' the thick mist

(Unh!)

Hook:

Why can't I succeed

Is it just me?

I say it's a need, I claim that I'm plantin' the seed

And every day I wish to proceed to step three

Instead of being on steps one and two

Damn, what am I gonna do?

Wh-What the hell am I gonna do?

Verse 2:

I've been through some thangs

That only offered me pain

I was once the same as you

I can tell that you don't have a clue

What life can do to you

It can turn you from sane to insane and back again

Everyday it feels like, there's nothin' to gain

It's a shame

How for the past few years, I mistook life as a game

Breezin' through it, never carin'

About that chance, if I just blew it

See, I knew it

Would come down to this

It's like a series of hits and misses

In life, you experience more pain than hugs and kisses

I think that this is just absurd

I'm not sure if you heard

But my wings have been attached too tight

I feel like a bird

Scratch that, I feel like a turd

Pushin' away people that tried to help me

Now look, I'm so unhealthy

People tried to show me how to get by

But to this day, I don't know why it has to be I

To go through these challenges

(Unh!)

Verse 3:

My mind has been pervaded by the mental invasion of lust

Everyday, I masturbate just for the satisfaction

All talk, but no action

I only talk shit, but see, I'm only just reacting

It's to the point that I don't even like interacting

As much as I used to

Now I spend my days counteracting karma

I don't have dogma

I'm only stuck with darhma

It's a damn shame that everyday, I gotta put up with drama

Do you know how it feels to be dissed?

Do you know how bad it feels to know the many

Opportunities you've missed?

If you haven't, don't think that you won't

You'll find out soon enough, how rough life can get

But anyway, I'll continue

To dream of a day where everything will be okay

Where I can find my spirit guide

And show her that I've survived

The many burdens that life has placed upon us

(Unh!)
