witching hour thoughts...
lyrics:
I mean it’s true to be honest gotta bite my tongue
because i want to keep peace and not battle some
of my homies hate each other they’re beefing a lot
and i’d be lying if i said don’t wanna bridge them all
cause the differences between them mean the world to them
it’s crazy coexisting isn’t easy for the squad
you can lead the horse to water
will they drink it though?
or will the water evaporate til the well is dry
I’m told i put too much pressure on myself a lot
sometimes i got to though it keeps me humble when i’m not
i’m scared i’ll lose connections with the ones that mean the world
but if it’s meant to be, then it’ll be, I gotta keep
reminding me that money comes and goes and family
is part of things that i will leave when I go and meet my maker
but i got songs to make to leave for when my family develops more
to have a civil conversation, not a civil war
and i guess i’m back on introspection been a while
it’s crazy working inward makes you value outside more
the sun is piercing through my windows and i’m still indoors
I love the summertime because that’s when i feel at home
I know my mother is engrained in me
potential to be passive
but if push comes to shove my temper’s short i gotta watch it
cause if I don’t I don’t
wanna say something out of pocket
and have to pick up pieces that scattered all on the carpet
so i’ll drop it
leave the heat storm at the door
leave my childish tendencies to my youth and explore
what some forgiveness and understanding has in store
4 me
tryna be somebody that I’d love to see
in the mirror when i’m glancing at it
every single morning
and here’s a warning to the me from the past,
if you come back
Praying you’re a poltergeist and not let you possess me
praying for the lessons that I learned to be an exorcism
haunted…
haunted…
every other night
waking up at 3AM
vivid nightmares
even though the dream’s lucid
maybe it’s because
i
when i was reckless
every month
i was clueless
didn’t know
that’s how i coped
when grandma passed
didn’t know what i was in
until it passed
didn’t realize
ecstasy wouldn’t last
and how my ego made my presents turn into my past
and now i’m back hibernating in my room
like how i did when I was a kid too
i have a vision and some goals
more money
more support
because i bury how i feel and they come out at night
i don’t let my emotions distract me
i see them as fuel
maybe that’s a bad thing
but it can be productive
all of my nightmares come from my subconscious
so what’s suppressed is seen when I become unconscious
i’m haunted…
haunted by myself
haunted by the fact that i’m scared to lose myself.
haunted by the treatment towards my family that passed away and didn’t get a chance to say goodbye to them i’m haunted
haunted by my ego
and by my inability to not
try and be a hero
haunted by the fact that I doubt myself a lot of the time
so opportunities present were just cast to the side
and i’m stuck in my mind
when i should be
dreaming about sunlight or living in it
born in the middle of the season
where they’re sensitive
but i’ve been working on it
hearing instead of being defensive
trying to not press
or try to be possessive
I’m glad i made it out of lowest lows
and i don’t think about it when I’m living now
unless I fester too long and in my dreams they show
the ghost of myself that haunts me once in a while
i said i’m haunted…
