DELAYED

Sketching out the pieces

Of the puzzle in my mind

Trying to make it come together

While reading between the lines

Is everything fine?

Ask me and Ill say the same thing

My mind's collapsing on the inside

But I'm keeping far from the brink

Of insanity like holy calamity

Got me screaming on the inside

So I sit here making beats

With some hope the emotions will slide

This is the final countdown

Starting right now

There ain't nothing I can do

From taking in the crowd

But at the end of the day

Will I truly have anything left to say

To inspire the youth

Other than just repeating my truth

And when the curtain falls

Will the skies erupt

Will the clouds be fired up

With plumes of volcanic dust

Or will everything be just fine

And my anxiety's just flaring up

My mind always speaking

The opposite of the truth

So I look into the mirror

For someone to talk to

I would be lying to you

If I said that I hit my peak

Because I feel I be going through

The same shit like every other week

Fighting for crumbs

As I twiddle my thumbs

Wanting to be done with this music shit

But I've barely begun

And when the curtain closes

Will I still have my own visage

Or will I still be living through my past lives

While not finding my own image

Is this truly the life that I want

Or just something I envision

Just something unrealistic

That'll get my hopes spinning

But I'll try to the life I've been given

And do what needs to be done

To pass through the curtain

So I can walk into the rising sun
