This mind is telling me you're so alone
In a clustered home
Waiting to hit the open road
But I'm nowhere near
Defeat keeps me here
While the heavy music is always telling me to persevere
Eyes closed wishing the world would disappear
Only for a minute
No one will interfere
But nothing ever turns out like you plan
You're still a nobody with empty hands
Now I'm placing the blame on another
While my old man is paying for the warm covers
So why do I suffer
With love of a mother
I'm miles always to be dying of hunger
Shit
I'm only 21 young
Just realizing now what I can become
Not the kid that you call the golden son
But the one that will never hold his toung
(Chorus)
I can't admit defeat
I toss and turn every single night
Because these sheets don't make everything alright
Discontent and regret fill my mind
This misery is giving me a reason to hide
Is this a broken record?
I've given up the effort
To please the public but I am not the oppressor
The bottle in the dresser
Won't solve anything
Few may fall to the crutch but many won't sink
Yeah
I'll speak every word so carefully
Because they need to understand they won't care for me
I never said much
I never meant much
Always had trouble keeping my head up
Looking for the exit in this dark room
I'm the lone wolf never howling at the moon
Just staring at the view
Waiting to turn around
And leave this city before I drown
(Chorus)
I can't admit defeat
Rise up (4x)
Cause arms can hold
(Rise up)
Cause no home can warm
(Rise up)
I never felt so cold
(Rise up)
I never felt so alone
(Rise up)

("I'm losing sleep, I'm losing friends, I got a love/hate:love with the city I'm in, I've count the hours having. Just one wish, if I'm doing fine there's no point to this")
Yeah
Let me spit a quick verse
Cause I'm cursed
Spilling my guts to deaf ears
And it's getting worse
I don't want to rehearse these dark twisted emotion s
People staring at an image but they can't seem to stay focused
I wrote this at night
With no one in sight
It's my spoken literature that I hold on tight
Never letting go
Like I'm hanging from a rop
Cause I know there's nothing but wretchedness down below
So before another show
I need to prepare myself
More of that honest music and merchandise to sell?
I think I'm doing well
Compared to many others
A warm bed to go to sleep to with the blue covers
Now I'm street prowling
Never ballin'
Fuck wearing 2 chains, drinking Rosé, and all that shit talking
Damn I'm staling
Cause I know I ain't ready
7 months without recording
And my hands are getting sweaty
Cause these words are heavy
More than 160
My weight is less than the burden of leaving this city
Let me sink or swim another day
Cause you already now that I'm fading away

yeah
I know I ain't like many others
I sit around at home hiding under these covers
staring at the blank walls with no colors
these isn't a room for a man to find his lover
just an escape from this place
another face
I can't the same conversation every day
I need a change
and I think music gives me that
cause it doesn't start to laugh or stab me in the back
I react with these songs never a fist
cause I will never step down to their bullshit
now I'll admit sometimes I can be a mess
And I'm not like the rest
Always trying to be the best
Now they say I'm blessed
But I don't see it
Rhyming many curse words I don't believe it
The demons in my head always seem to yell
Cause I'm stuck in my own personal hell
(Chorus)
Arise my soul and sing
Let me breath now
Arise my soul and sing
Let me be now

So many words I've left unsaid
This weight of regret
Is to heavy to carry in this head
So I try to go to bed
But I can't sleep
Now this meaningless stress is what slowly fucking killing me
Now believe that I try to be unselfish
By this generosity has left me feeling helpless
Hopeless of never leaving this place I call home
If I stay any longer I'll never grow on my own
It's my comfort zone
But I got to stray
Because I already know that I'm fading away
(And I'm the one to blame)
Metal wires in my mouth doesn't seem to ease the struggle
These words are distorted so now I'm hiding under
Head kept low I'm I another quiet motherfucker
A torn up book always being judged by the cover
I didn't suffer I had it alright
My parents had the trouble while I waste my life
I didn't suffer I had it alright
My parents had the trouble while I waste my life
I'm responsible so I'll take the blame
Next time I'll give it a chance
No regrets no shame
Don't feel the terror from an error
Learn from mistakes
And never say never
Cause there's no time for a break
So disengage the shit that gives us harm
I just want to get on the stage soon and perform
Leave the norm
And drive off into the storm
The gig life that'll give me excite
Even when I'm beat and sore
I'll ignore the pain
Mind over matter
One step at a time
You're barely climbing the ladder
Cause I know I rather be making a difference and memories
Than try to make my pockets fatter and more enemies
Now jealousy is plaguing my fucking mind
So I must move on and leave it all behind
There's no time to rest
When you're trying to leave the nest
So I'll let that pressure build up on my chest
Pile up the stress if I can take it
Deep words on a page never felt so weightless
I've become jaded
Leaving it all in the open
Bent by not broken
In the ocean of emotions

Discontent ft. Jasmine G

I'm so far from the person I aspire to be
I know it's going to be a long journey
A rollercoaster life going up and down
Now I say am I living and learning?
I'm burning with a desire to grow
So I get in my zone when I'm trying to flow
Only rhyming about what I know
I don't roll or throw bills at girls on a pole
But this is what I do
I go to work and I go to school
You see I'm not a fool looking for trouble
But I might say the wrong thing and start to mumble
You would say my life is kind of dull
On a Friday night I'm not the party animal
Stuck at work listening to J Cole
After I serve some residents ice cream in a bowl
Why do they treat me so cold?
Now is that what happens when you get old?
Man
I just don't know
I don't plan on going past 64
Will I mature and be fateful
Or will I grow up and be hateful
Man
I rather just die
Than be in pain the rest of my life
(Chorus)
Are you happy
With who you are?
I'm discontent
Are you happy
With where you are?
I'm discontent
Nah I'm not content
Sometimes I feel like I'd be better off dead
I can't pretend
That I'd be satisfied with it all in the end
Now I'm speaking from the shadows
Trapped in this cell
Help by these shackles
For no reason
I spawn these demons
Searching for the road that I'll soon be leaving
Still grieving because I'm always here
Hoping for a change this time next year
I'm confined by these fears
The image of a better tomorrow ain't clear
But I can not linger
I have to take a shot and pull the trigger
Cause my mind is losing sight of the picture
I can either beautify or disfigure
Can't point the finger at anyone
It's my problem but can I get it done
I need some sun cause I feel the pressure
It keeps increasing and I don't want to measure
(Chorus)
Are you happy
With who you are?
I'm discontent
Are you happy
With where you are?
I'm discontent
