[Verse 1: NERVE]

Yo

It's another day and I'm just another waste of space

Another race away too late to make the gates

Another player who hates the game

You pay for fame while I'm breaking in my trainers just to make the train

I be saving change but i ain't seeing any

'Cause two cents from a snake doesn't mean a penny

You looking fake and you seeming petty

And I can see it in your face you're gonna break if you don't see confetti

You writing bars about the weight of your vest

While i be scribing psalms just to keep that weight off my chest

A blade, I'm depressed

Drain it all the way with a pen

On the rail station to station where my brain is at rest

Maybe I'm vexed, maybe I'm deranged and a pest

Maybe I'm waiting on an angel who can take me to death

But everyday I'm blessing pages to refrain from the stress

And get away from medication that they claim is the best

Don't need a razors edge to let loose the pain from this recluses brain

'Cause my pen shoots the flames and I rep truth on stage

I'm the next dude to break from a dead useless game

So I get through the day and I send you away

And with the the earth sitting on my neck

I be looking at civilians with a shiver of resent

I see militants eliminating children for a check

And conditions of the system got me wishing we were dead

[Chorus: NERVE]

When the sun rises up in the east

I pray that one day I'll be living out the dreams I crave

And when the sun sets down in the west

I pray the weight of the word doesn't break my neck today

So just weight, just weight

Cause one day my knees will buckle and my breath will fade

So just weight, just weight

While I'm carrying the earth upon my neck today

[Verse 2: Spekter]

Another day, another coffin, another name forgotten

There's another hundred ways for you to run away from problems

I love the shape this horrid summerscape has gotten

Its like the sun escaped and now we numb the pain with toxins

The drugs drugs we're taking are rotten, suffocating on vomit

A hundred days into sodom and nothing's changing or stopping

Uppercutting your face till my knuckles stuck in their place

You can crumble under the weight or you mumble something in vain

And while you're sitting at your mates place blazing shard

I'm chilling in this trailer park trying to name a bar

'Cause life is easy but we make it hard

So you better train your heart

More people should take acid and play guitar

I live in prisons of vivid syllables spinning in wicked visual this isn't simple spitting in rhythm

You're giving in to the system and pinching kids for commission

The decision isnt as hidden as your principal thinks it is

We didn't come this far to get pushed back down We got the city in our corner don't, look back now

A lot of good cats turned hoodrats and look cracked out

But thats the way the Earth turns when you put tracks down

'Cause these days I feel my backing aching and curl

Trying to save the girl carrying the weight of the world

Like superman if spitting rhymes was his kryptonite

Making dope tunes in a phone booth thats equipped with mics

[Chorus: NERVE]

When the sun rises up in the east

I pray that one day I'll be living out the dreams I crave

And when the sun sets down in the west

I pray the weight of the word doesn't break my neck today

So just weight, just weight

Cause one day my knees will buckle and my breath will fade

So just weight, just weight

While I'm carrying the earth upon my neck today
