Royalty is casualty
At least for me
Cus why would you want to be so busy
When you can just live peacefully and not worry about anything?
Why cant i make believe
That these things
Can happen too
If only I knew
How to make them come true
Because i dont miss searching the cracks in my mattress
feeling super pissed cus i lost my nic
Now im always coughin and chokin on regret
Always feelin bad about the choices of my past
I guess im just happy that
I didnt die, im lovin life
Just like
I'm supposed to
And now my dreams are coming true
And all the people I used to associate with
Cant even begin
To comprehend this gift
And it makes me sad but im just glad
That i have this knowledge.
It has changed my mind
Im growing with time
Cus it feels better to know that as i go
Im accomplishing something greater
Than anyone could imagine
And if i was bound to do so bad
Then what are the odds i change that?
Craving and thinking
about nicotine and weed
Pills and drinking
Are not for the weak
I know deep down
Its not the solution to my problem
i had to get out of that place
So i could chase
Old age
because regret makes us depressed
and the truth is that its better to get rid of it so you wont be stressed
I was layin in my bed
Kinda rlly scared cus
I woke up from sleep paralysus
And when i woke up
I thought that i was
In a different dimension
And i dont know why
It made me scared
So I closed my eyes
And when i woke up in the mornin
I thought it was a stupid little story
And that i didnt survive cus of grace or glory
And now i cant unsee
The things I saw
In my sleep
So I prayed
Asked angels to watch over me as I lay
i pray
Every day
And i still
have
Sleep
Puh-Ral
Uh Sis
Every mornin
I ask Jesus
to Protect me
Protect my friends
Protect all of us
And all my family
I pray for peace
for the whole community
And everybody here
Always makes me think
About the things ive missed in life
In the past
When i was on the brink of youth,
had just lost my last tooth
I was In my prime
And i was wastin my time
With anger and drugs
And nicotine and wine
And i dont know why
I didnt think once
I was wastin my life
I didnt think twice
about all my old friends
The potential that
Could have been
But instead
I was stuck in
A rut that
I thought
Was never gonna end
Always searchin the cracks in
My mattress
Feeling super pissed
Cus i lost my nic
i just pretended
i was glad
When i was really sad
And i was depressed
everything that i did
Didnt make sense
And now
Im slowly gettin out of it
And im getting back on my feet
Tryna rap
To a beat
Tryna find a rhythm thats neat
Tryna find some friends to meet
And maybe i
Can learn
How to be Happy
Get better
With time
So that i
Can continue
To make these rhymes
Inspired by rappers
Like eminem
I guess you can say im kinda like stan
But in a less creepy self seething not aggressive never beating
My girlfriend type way
He killed her while she was pregnant
It’s so sad she was carrying his kid
I wish i was better
I wish i was clever
I wish i dint have a cleft chin
Or an iq of nothin
I never knew anything
And now my brain is depreciatin
Feels like its runnin thin
Cus i dont exercise
My interests
And its
Makin
Me mad
Again
And i still dont know why
i feel like I could die
so i pray a prayer
And say
Before i lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
Please protect me through the night
Please take away all my fright
