Talking to myself, I say self, we need a change
The kind that gets you excited to face to the new day,
Waking up, while eating breakfast, keep the blood sugar high,
Fill my nalgene with ice so my throat doesn't get dry,
It's only 10: 30 and my chest is getting tight,
Focus on my breathing squinting in the bright light,
We've got errands to run, pay bills to fill potholes,
So it's smooth sailing on the long road,
Finally shaking off last night's performance,
A poor man's version of a life filled with torment,
By lunchtime you're already exhausted,
You're ready for a nap and some TV. nonsense,
But I can't afford cable so I only get the basic channels,
Who knows how much this more this broken antenna can handle,
Skip the nap and devil box, there's work to be done,
Kill the past with the motivation cause these problems weigh a ton,
I'm trying to get some motivation,
If you see me broken down and I've lost my stride, tell me everything will be allright
Just tell me evev
The repetition will get you, if you don't handle it right,
But I'm not in the position to be giving out advice,
Cause by the afternoon the anxiety blooms,
So I'll skip work today so I can give myself room,
To catch the sunset, my doctor prescribed one a day,
Helps to fight the infection of reality's evil ways,
It pays to be persistent, to be a story of success,
So I'm rapping to get this tension out of my chest,
Blessed by karma's opposite, holding it down,
Trying to put positive back on the map,
Relax, by cooking dinner; take it step by step,
It's been eleven hours straight still haven't slept,
When things get crossed off the list, the panic drifts,
Away from my nervous system, where my heartbeats sips,
My attitude to fuel my passion for music,
I'll give the world a throwaway and give you the exclusive,
If you see me trying to move, don't let me lose my stride.
I hit the sheets when no one's looking,
Been flying solo lately,
I stopped cheating on myself,
Now I'm sleeping like a baby,
