Normal Thursday Evening

I’m always trying to find out what the problem is,
Love once had control
But now I think I’m back on top of it
I think I’m back on top of things.
Thinking back’s so bothering
I’m stuck in this Metropolis,
Buildings all around me so the sky’s the only exit on my option list.
Always got options never option-less,
Feeling like an optimist
Pessimistic thoughts always seem to draw the thunder in.
I raise the bar but I spent way too much time under it
Like I took a shot but it was under hit.
I’m not sad,
I just don’t know how it’s come to this,
Lately my thoughts have, not been very comforting.
I’ve been relying on the strength that I am conjuring,
They say he,
Lives this life like it’s not up to him -
The waves look pretty,
Right up until they suck you in.
Now, now I’m, now I’m stuck in this mind state,
These times are so confusing so I’m lighting up this fine haze
I know that getting high is
always the right way,
But it’s not the right way if I don’t do it my way.
The sun’s behind me
But I sit and watch the sky fade,
The sky turns to black
But the stars begin to migrate -
The light is sometimes blinding,
So the darkness helps the migraine.
It’s like there’s always something missing
I live a life so privileged
So what’s with all the wishing
I know, others are less fortunate
But what’s with all the killing?
Taking someones life does not express the way you’re feeling.
Our minds our limitless we just create the ceiling,
When we’re feeling down why is the darkness so appealing
And, when I’m feeling lost
How do these words have so much meaning?
I feel lost but then remember that I’m breathing,
Got a wild imagine, it’s so potent that it’s heating.
I’m writing bars it’s just a normal Thursday evening,
Chilling with my friends,
Two of the most human beings, yo.

(Chorus)

It’s just another Thursday evening.
That’s until my soul starts bleeding.

I see the inspiration all around us,
I guess we’re puppets to the actions that surround us,
It’s ironic that we’re happy once we’ve found love
Up until the moment these emotions start to drown us.
Diving head first, never thinking ‘bout the outcome -
Fuck a label I can make it there without one.
This mixtape is a tale, the story of my mind,
The story I’ve been holding back behind these open blinds.
Please listen carefully and read between the lines,
The lines are paper thin but you won’t know if you don’t try
I’ve been trying all my life…
That’s twenty years, so I’ve got lot’s more days and nights.
I start writing and forget to check the time,
Minutes turn to hours in the blink of an eye
I just sink to the sky,
If that’s the limit I’ll be breaking laws tonight.
The first step to your dreams is to stop waiting all the time
You can try and bling me I’ll just shoot lasers through my eyes,
If there’s an ocean between us
I’ll walk through the rising tide.
I’m not a prophet I just share a piece of mind,
This is nothing special
Just a normal Thursday night.
I wrote all through the evening
Soon I’ll have to close my eyes -
I don’t remember all my dreams,
The ones I do remember, I’m never really asleep…
I zone out until somebody nudges me
It’s just such a sudden leap,
One minute my mind’s here
The next it’s up in a tree.
I like these views I think they’re really quite unique
I take a second just to listen to remember why I speak…
Why am I thinking so deep,
On a normal Thursday evening…
I just remembered I haven’t eaten….

(Chorus)
