Hook:

I  was a kid building my future out of Lego brick

Piece  by piece I’m gonna make it stick

Had a vision suddenly it clicked

If I can write poems I can write raps that are just as sick

Verse  1:

Can’t  believe your own ears like a magic trick

Have ta listen to it again rewind that shit

Salivating  at the mouth give them lips a lick

Drooling over my bars cause I'm so dreamy aww quit

All joking aside I was caught in a mudslide

My life yo it was taking me for a ride

2016  the year I died inside

2018 I'm reviving my drive

Time to wake up! I'm only 22

Been in a coma a few years now that shits through

Tired of lying down lying to myself bout what I can do

Get up out this bed tie on this brand new pair of shoes

Lace em up with my dreams don't care bout paper by the reams

Just tryna bind my life together when I'm fallin apart at the seams

I’m feeling I'm bout to lash out life's whipping me like cream

I think I'm unhappy where I currently am starting to notice a theme

So I'm back to square one back to the drawing board

Was playing checkers not chess bout to flip the board

See my fantasies in the stars where I'm gazing from the floor

Like I'm a kid again look up to the sky I see a dinosaur

Sitting around thinking I'm gonna build a castle

Finding the pieces feeling doubt it started as a hassle

Make my way to the floor plan it out I've got my hands full

Clicking pieces into place until I got a firm handle

I'm laying down the floor I'm building up walls

When the foundation is strong the fortress never falls

The big bad wolf can huff and puff til he's blue in the balls

Finally able to stand my own voice echoing through the halls

Verse 2:

Remember when you were a kid and everything was possible

No dream was too big and your imagination was gospel

You were the mightiest of kings fair yet unstoppable

No endeavor was too grand anything was optional

You could be 007 bond James bond

A knight in shining armor or a wizard with a wand

They said they were just childhood games they were wrong

My world depended on my valour my sword and my heart staying strong

Not just sticks in the backyard they were the sharpest of weapons

My only hope against this hoard of evil the likes of which threatens

The girl I love with all my heart although I was only 7

She was my queen more beautiful than all the angels in heaven

Hook:

I’m still a kid building my future out of Lego brick

Piece by piece gonna make it stick

Had a vision suddenly it clicked

If I can write poems I can write raps that are just as sick

Verse 3:

Life use to be so fucking fun when did we lose that

When did we let the world start to walk over us why did we do that

When did miserable become the norm and why are we cool with that

Depression is a bitch to overcome true that screw that

Screw that fucker to the deepest parts of hell

I'm climbing up out of this well, well, well

What do you say what's to lose we already fell

Let's get back up and kick this fuck away til we're feeling swell

I'm tired of feeling tired my brain is so wired

Should I cut the red one or the blue one which one will light the fire

Which one will put it out and extinguish my desire

With no passion all that exist is a constant state of ire

That's why I miss being a kid when everything was big

Your best days were playing around in the dirt ya dig

Or climbing up a tree to the tip top twig

Everything was cool as heck and you flipped your lid

Couldn't believe your eyes when you looked outside

Saw a deer on the ground or an eagle in the sky

Was it a bird a plane or superman you saw fly

Didn't matter you still lit up with a twinkle in your eye

Everything we saw was just so incredible

But somewhere in the middle life went from happy to regrettable

Now to feel high we got a munch on an edible

Or eat a prescription pill Xanax or Adderall

That's not the way life should be

All I want is a simpler time and a simpler version of me

Simpler the version of you and a simpler version of we

Is that too much to ask for I disagree

Thank you for listening to me bumble and ramble

I stand by my words don't care if you switch the channel

Don't want to listen still lead my own life by example

This world is what we make it will it be through heaven or hell that we trample
