lyrics

Restart my beat heart
I need a spark that's not a drug
A large part of my grave is already dug
If you make out with a shark
It's bound to bite your tongue off
There's a hole in my head
I'm just trying to stop the runoff
Been doing this rap thing for a minute
Still ain't made the playoffs
Still ain't seen the payoff
At least I can't be laid off
At least my dick don't stay soft

Some people are cheapskates
Some people are drug addicts
I'm all that and an emotional eater
A walking bag of bad habits
First I tried whiskey
Then I tried weed
Followed by bogies then E
Xanax, cocaine, LSD
Perkaset, adderall, DXM,
Ambien, 25I, and mushies
The only thing I didn't try was me

For a minute there

I lost myself

Kids will be kids
And I will be too
And that's the way it is
Till my days are thru
If you keep chasing a high
You won't change your point of view
Till' you feel like Woody in Toystory
Nobody wanna play with you
You think you're the bomb
But you never blow-up
So mature in your head
Even when your friends tell you to grow up
I wouldn't listen to anyone
Drink until I throw up
You know what?

For a minute there

I lost myself

Trip after trip
Perpetual falling
I thought the phone was ringing
Ignored my calling
Searching for something
By searching through stalling
I found thousands of answers
And they were all appalling
Crawling through the sprawling
Universe which almost proved
Too heavy a load to be hauling
Impaled upon a flaming sword
Sorry darling
It's back to drawing board
Laid out in a puddle of charming gore
A horde of goblins harvesting my spinal cord
And they all scream "what you crying for?"
