[Verse 1]

My mind is full of stupid thoughts

One day I woke up to write 'em all down

And I'm not quite finished yet

Matter fact this is just the beginning of it

And every sheet has a meaning to me

And it's hard to see that somebody wouldn't share this belief

And it's hard to breathe if you feel like the only who sees

A lonely disease, lyrical quality about to decease

So this is how it's gonna be?

A couple tryhard G's rap on soundcloud beats

Mumbling lyrics with a Hi-Hat bleed

An 808 below and that's your masterpiece?

My mind is full of stupid thoughts

One day I woke up to write 'em all down

And I'm not quite finished yet

Matter fact this is just the beginning of it

And even if you criticized what I did

The hardest critic is always me 'cause my shit

Can't be good enough

And I don't know this line doesn't fit here

Always under attack

And I don't know why it's rap

That I persue, I don't think that's what I'm good at

Do you? But why else would I look back

When I left this game so many times to say goodbye

But always come right back to write another line

And this feels like a beginning to me

I'm beginning to breathe

And I'm beginning to see

That if I'm gonna be the person that I wanted to be

It's gonna take another level of dedication

Eradicating the seas

So this is how it's gonna be

I'm getting in my own way now of making my beats

And for every word I'm writing down it's feeling like a victory

When I don't believe in me?


[Chorus]

When I

I crush me from the inside

I get to me from within I

Seem to be hating what I do

When I

I crush me from the inside

I get to me from within I

Seem to be hating what I do


[Verse 2]

Writing is easy they say

Just start at the beginning and then don't drift away

But if they would know what is going on

Inside of my head when I'm all alone and I'm in the zone I have no Control

I have to beat it

Get rid of all the bullshit on the paper and repeat it

But this time I'm gonna use what I have learned for many reasons

I'm putting a verse together that I really do believe in

And even if you feel no energy

Power is down and you feel this is the whackest beat

Say you need something with a little electricity

I don't waste mine for what you have to say to me

The only enemy I listen to: The inner me

Repeatedly telling me that I'll never hit the ceiling

But I don't see that I never seem to reach

The things I care about but that are out of my belief and...


[Chorus]

When I

I crush me from the inside

I get to me from within I

Seem to be hating what I do

When I

I crush me from the inside

I get to me from within I

Seem to be hating what I do


[Post-Hook]

And it might be hard to believe

But every time I write a line It falls into pieces

And I fall into grief

Not trusting the words that I read, words that I read

Hard to believe

But every time I write a line I fall into grief

And it falls in with me

And I'm not trusting the words I read


[Chorus]

When I

I crush me from the inside

I get to me from within I

Seem to be hating what I do

When I

I crush me from the inside

I get to me from within I

Seem to be hating what I do


[Post-Hook]

And it might be hard to believe

But every time I write a line It falls into pieces

And I fall into grief

Not trusting the words that I read, words that I read

Hard to believe

But every time I write a line I fall into grief

And it falls in with me

And I'm not trusting the words I read
