I'm stranded dead center stuck in cast iron shackles
Can't get a drink of water since I poisoned all the wells
What was going through my mind pouring it out I couldn't tell you
It's the craziest methods paranoia always points to
Same reason why they wouldn't put a nervous man behind the gun
He would leave more shade than the sky without a sun
The only thing I keep killing is my character
Mood switching more often than the change weather
Irritating me like some girl named Heather
But with every passing day, I'm slowly getting better
On the self improvement wave even if I'm compensating
For the fact that it's a distraction from how much I been losing
You wouldn't come to that conclusion cause I smile every morning
But I'm in a better life every time I'm snoring
In this reality I'm a thankful nonetheless
Some people don't get access to that temporary rest
That I abuse to see myself in all the best scenarios
And while of course I wanna be at the top and in all the stereos
It all starts from becoming my city's very own
The dream will always be present inside my mind
