Losing My Mind

(Intro)
I’m just trying to say:
What’s real,
What’s coming out of my head,
What’s coming out of my heart
But it’s, hard to stay true to that
And to express it in a way that everyone understands…
In a way that where everyone can relate….
Weights getting heavier on your back
But you just, gotta’ keep in mind
That your goals are getting closer and closer
With every step that you take.
Shit like that you know:
Stay motivated,
Stay healthy
Stay happy.
“Peace & Love”
All of that shit, you know how it is.

Losing my mind ‘Cause this world wont change,
They say it will now, and that’s every single day.
My heart’s heavy and I’m dazed,
We’re living within a maze,
Some crush others, simply to find their ways.
What simple minded ways I guess it’s simply my mistake,
For thinking that this world was a “simple ass” place.
I’m rediscovering, every single face
Because what lies behind is not what they all say,
Words are all fine but, snakes never pay no.
Karma only hits all those people with a halo,
Who build up their lives, see them crumble like play-do -
There is no safe zone, there is no payphone
I can’t call for help ‘cause my credit is way low.
I won’t conform just ‘cause Media’s say so,
Toke in the morn’ I can see all that grey smoke
But that’s just me breathing no toxical waste bro:
Enter the heathens, complete wastes of space bro…
And I’m spaced out,
I’ve got to show how, people got to be,
But who would want to take example off me?
I’m just out here lost like you,
I’ve found my path, now that’s not quite true.
I’ve, got no mask but I’m not see through.
Won’t, front no problems that are past me dude
But they say a shared problem is a halved one - True.
But every person has got their own wars,
Mostly wars in their minds that will never come forth
And I try to share mine but I can’t really talk.
Love is all fine but I’m not really sure,
I was so blinded
Now I start finding
Bullets in my chest that were shot from behind me,
It’s, all bad timing but life won’t wait….
Taking my time just to set things straight…




(Chorus)
I’m losing my mind,
Cause this world won't change.
I’m losing my mind,
Cause this world won’t change.
Why wont this world change?


I’ve made mistakes, I hope it’s not too late
Please, forgive me girl for all the heartache
I, really didn’t think it would end this way
Or, end at all…
But I guess all stories aren’t, magical…
And that’s what I struggle with,
I don’t follow people so I get into trouble quick…
I don’t need a hit, to get through the day
I use it when I need to elevate
Get some perspective when the days are grey;
But also when they’re great,
The down side is my brain cells deteriorate
I hear what you say.
People say that I’ve changed
But I am who I am and I’ll always be the same,
Despite any of the bad choices that I’ve made -
And I’m still yet to make.
My life ain’t straight,
Gotta sort things out,
‘Cause I’m riding a wave
So, every other night
I’m, up on my phone
Can’t get no sleep
Hoping that these head phones can, bring me relief.
Because they’re better than the weed is, better than the sleep is
If I gave you a piece of my heart, please keep it.
My mind’s a sequence, you won’t understand
You’ll get thrown in the deep end with no time to plan…
I had time to plan but I’m not yet a man.
I’m fighting to be but I’m still Peter Pan.
I know that I’m young but I still understand,
Not everything I just get what I can.
I puzzle the pieces, it don’t seem too bad…
And then…
All the creases show up and… everything bad.


(Chorus)
I’m losing my mind,
Cause this world won't change.
I’m losing my mind,
Cause this world won’t change.
Why wont this world change?

about

My dreams and ambitions have led me here, aged 20, I'm now looking to jump start my music career.
Rap is more than a craft or a job to me. It brings my emotions to life and I feel myself live through it. I hope I can convey this in my songs.
I'm always looking for ways to improve, increasing the possible outcomes of my work tenfold.
My feet are, and always will be firmly planted on the ground.
