A lot been on my mind lately
So I'm thinking maybe just maybe 
These words can save me 

Sometimes I wanna go to sleep and never wake up
Work off your ass for the pay cut
I say stay tough, cause boy they play rough 
Grab you by the cuff, tell you it's not enough 
Bitch I call their bluff, haul and puff the purest stuff 
That's when newbies say yuck 
It's an acquired taste, like duck 
Feel like luck expired, brains no longer wired
So I told my homie he was hired
This mentality you've got to build young
Lace your lies with promises of fun 
If ain't being honest, imma f*ck with you and I say I ain't on it
Cause you can stop when you want, right
And I'm high functioning like I still write 
So at this juncture in rhyme, I'm here to puncture your mind 
Like a vulture with eyes on the prize 
Don't be surprised when I leave you fried 
But f*ck it, you still my guy 

A lot been on my mind lately 
So I'm thinking maybe just maybe 
These words can save me

Shits brewing in me I can no longer ignore 
Regress or evolve, I be turned like a revolving door 
Repent but what for
Cause all anyone ever wants is more 
Then Noah tripped and cracked his head on the floor 
You say bring the vape, I'm like shit we need tape and gauze
Don't fucking look at me with em open jaws
Friends come first, that's the token law 
Oh, so you want a round of applause for putting your round on pause
Well I'm sorry for your loss 
Too high to help and I crafted that dependence
Endorsed the weed and before he could help it 
He was in too deep, tried new shit before he fell asleep 
No longer a cousin, that's an omen of death 
I'm home out of breath, my dome set to rest 
Tie a noose around the neck I was told to protect
And tell me what comes next 

Wake up, to Papa hitting me like an epiphany 
Shaking me, cause I ain't listening
You slept all day, he hisses at me
Don't know what to say, except the peaceful me is history 
Cause ties that bind, break 
And lies in the mind misshape 
Picked up the pen, to write this mix-tape 
A clean slate to escape my fate 
Carrying my burden like a crate 
But words unload that weight 
Ties that bind, break 
And lies in the mind misshape
A naive perception
Starved, I use music to appease
Carved a new direction, but I still believe
That demons take breaks, they never truly leave 
Ties that bind break
And lies in the mind shape
Turned around and found that I'm finally awake 

A lot been on my mind lately 
So I'm thinking maybe just maybe 
These words can save me 
A lot been on my mind lately
So I'm thinking maybe just maybe 
These words can save me
