[Verse 1]
I guess I’m back at it again
I think this is the start to my mental ascend
I suspend all disbelief because through hard work I have achieved relief
It might take some time to retrieve and find the message I’m trying to leave
Can’t just let it out without a purpose
I’d be doing both of us a disservice
Every time I bring up my family I’m nervous
But what I tell is only on the surface
If I don’t say something it would all feel worthless
So I feed the furnace
I have a firmness on thеse urges
That I’m meant to succeed
And it all starts with my hеart having to bleed
I’m very happy I picked up the weed
I knew I had to do a good deed
And plant this seed
That it’s okay to talk about
What you allowed as a kid
But as an adult you have to recognize what they did
I wanted to die and had no idea why
Life felt like a waste
Always left a sour taste
But I found this place
Knew one day I’d have my own place
A dream of normalness I chase
But don’t get it twisted
I’ve drifted far from normal
Almost reaching into paranormal
But anything is better than the morals I juggled as a kid
Trying to rid my family of the hill they slid
But it was no use
All they wanted was that juice
Wine or drugs
Hell I even contemplated shooting slugs
And running with the thugs
Just to get off the ground
But I realized that destiny and frowned
So I drowned in my thoughts
Started producing
Used music maker jam
And bam I had a few tracks
Uploaded them to SoundCloud and expected some racks
I was young and dumb
But where I came from that’s a step up
Do what you love to do and never give up
Look at me now
Making my own shit
I bet little me would be proud
I’m just trying to go play in front of a crowd
Do what little me vowed
I want to hear you scream these lyrics loud
I guess I’m back at it again
I think this is the start to my mental ascend
I suspend all disbelief because through hard work I have achieved relief
It might take some time to retrieve and find the message I’m trying to leave
Can’t just let it out without a purpose
I’d be doing both of us a disservice
Every time I bring up my family I’m nervous
But what I tell is only on the surface
If I don’t say something it would all feel worthless
So I feed the furnace
