(Intro Tom Pepe)

Cause it feels like life's wasting me

Yeah, uh, yo

(Tom Pepe 1st verse)

I've been high for two weeks

Every half moon it just repeats

This haunted feeling in my brain makes me keep running

Now I feel the after effects of trying cocaine and OC

When your on it I got no pain, I'm so free

But when you come down, I need the whole world to hold me

My true self acts like you don't even know me

I take advantage of other people so much I need a trophy

My nights a blur these days feel rather ghostly

My life's a joke, hard days choke me

Blame the flames living like an arcade game, hard to explain

My art comes out of my Arteries part of my veins

Oxygen drains to my brain til there's nothing left

But think about other people judge me too much I get fucking stressed

So now I'm depressed questioning death unhealthy, self obsessed and not wealthy

So lost in being alive that the motherfucking gods couldn't even help me

(Chorus)

And everything seems fake to me

I wonder what it takes to be

A great MC, cause

It feels like life's wasting me

And everything seems fake to me

I wonder what it takes to be

A great MC, cause

(Tom Pepe 2nd Verse)

24 hours what the fuck am I doing

Using drugs, make my pyramids turn into ruins

Tryna be the truest

Take my pain turn it into music

Mistakes might break us but that's what makes us human

When I was younger didn't do as much consuming

My mind is blooming

Tryna find these treasures like the temple of doom and

The only one who ever seen the dark side of the moon

I'm bi-polar stop in December start in June

When all you care about leaves your heart as a tune

Take a break from reality, it's hard to resume

Tell myself I'll be outta here soon, howling at the moon

I feel like this life is my wife left me now I scowl at the groom

Prowling the room, heart of a lion kill me hear the growls from my tomb

Stuck in my place like a scarecrow

Can't let this straightened arrow tryna kill two birds chasing sparrows

The essence of my soul is similar to ancient Pharaoh's

(Chorus)

And everything seems fake to me

I wonder what it takes to be

A great MC, I'm telling you, it feels like life is wasting me

Wasting me, life is wasting me

It feels like life is wasting me

Uh, yeah

(Tom Pepe 3rd verse)

Everyday is great so I accelerate my heart rate

Celebrate the pain elevate the game, levitate my brain

I can tell the fakes and the lames selling cake and taking aim

Trying to make a name

I hate them for acting cocky, but I'm actually the same

But the fact is that my heart truly captivates your brain

Getting stoop is hella fun, dope is actually strange

You start drinking at the party, end up asking for change

Trapped in these games

Lying to my mum like I've actually changed

But going sober through a day feels like I'm trapped in a cage

By myself I'm amazed by what I attached to a page

The way I'm running for myself like it's laps in a maze

That's why I've been on coke, weed and dizz for the past few days

I think you can find he's witnessed no more crave

When I was young how I acted much ahead of my age

Trust myself in my element, front of the stage

But while I'm talking myself

I see that nothing has changed

I used to be much stronger take the bus in the rain

But now my day to day feels like I'm digging my own grave

And I'm just telling everybody keep your heads on straight

Cause

(Chorus)

And everything seems fake to me

I wonder what it takes to be

A great MC, cause

It feels like life's wasting me

And everything seems fake to me

I wonder what it takes to be

A great MC, cause it feels like, it feels like..
