most days i just feel so frustrated tell me is this real or am i just being jaded maybe when iā€™m dead iā€™ll finally feel like i made it ā€œplease donā€™t talk like thatā€ she said ā€œyou know that i hate itā€ on god i could do this all day you know i do magic with every word that i say but if im being honest life is tragic in a way and every night alone just makes me wonder why i stay so i pray light a candle cast a circle get real geeked up like iā€™m urkle let my body bathe in purple voyage voids to find the virtue promise that this hell wonā€™t hurt you least no more than that which birthed you smell the grave so sweet like perfume let the ghosts come through to nurse you i drift into the night obscured devoid of light the twilight holds me tight out of mind out of sight light a candle cast a circle get real geeked up like iā€™m urkle let my body bathe in purple voyage voids to find the virtue promise that this hell wonā€™t hurt you least no more than that which birthed you smell the grave so sweet like perfume let the ghosts come through to nurse you i drift into the night obscured devoid of light the twilight holds me tight out of mind out of sight let dusk deliver me unto reticent peace wash out all that i see that i might finally sleep

i canā€™t forget sometimes i feel so worthless always reminiscing bout the things you said lately i been thinking iā€™d be better of dead yesterday i didnā€™t even leave my bedā€” got about a million memories up in my head, if the drugs dollars tonā€™t kill me first itā€™ll probably be the feds, if you forget my name at least remember what i said i canā€™t believe i hope you dream about me i remember vividly the ways that you would doubt me probably wouldnā€™t still be here if you had been without me thatā€™s real on god yeah i lied a lot always sneakin off sniffin dope in the bathroom try to play it off but i really couldnā€™t cap you but i was nowhere near as bad as what you said i guess it doesnā€™t matter with the life iā€™ve lead i guess it doesnā€™t matter if the bloods still red wanna see me dead so itā€™s ā€œoff with her headā€ if iā€™m being honest i donā€™t think itā€™d be the worst thing, whatever finally kills me probably wont even hurt me, i thought that i could trust you is the part that really burns me, a trauma bond just means i truly need you in the worst ways ay and now you got nothing to say you forget how i fed you and clothed you and kept you when you had no place else to stay my name is a curse that you spit from your mouth leaves your tongue with a terrible taste, a mirror for all that youā€™ve done is all that you can see when when you look in my face talk to me straight to be real i might light the whole city up yeah this ketamine gimme some giddy up you a pussy just tryn get your pity up opp olympics the way you be flippin em got the hazy up in me iā€™m sippin em smoke gelato im lazy im trippin yeah give a fuck what you say i stay drippin yeah and the smithy is what i stay grippin yeah - - - - i still thrive despite you yeah i still try i canā€™t lose and i canā€™t die despite all the tears i cry take this pain and run my game one day you gon say my name one day my whole life gon change one day i wonā€™t feel the same to be real i might light the whole city up yeah this ketamine gimme some giddy up you a pussy just tryn get your pity up opp olympics the way you be flippin em got the hazy up in me iā€™m sippin em smoke gelato im lazy im trippin yeah give a fuck what you say i stay drippin yeah and the smithy is what i stay grippin yeah i canā€™t forget i canā€™t forget i canā€™t forget i canā€™t forget

straight up out the trenches if they ask about me tell them niggas mind they business if im being honest guess that im being dismissive i just came up out the grave to find out life is too expensive and the cost of being silentā€™s watching ogres eat the hymens all the innocence subsided on the day the sky divided swear you looked like christ ascended this storyā€™s dark enough there ainā€™t no need for me to bend it aint no use in me pretending thereā€™s a inch left in this engine my bodyā€™s bored with holes all rusted through at my invention my minds amok with scenes from secret sinister dimensions or maybe those are memories distorted by the tension of knives pressed firm against my chest i just wish that i could catch my breath maybe rest prolly best that you donā€™t see me at the bottom peekin at the demons if i spot em then i got em woah all evil down here all evil no good left... nowhere but you knew that though went back to the basics one day at a time just hittin vapes and rockin asics used to crush the monsters hittin meetings on the daily guess i knew that one day all the drugs was gonna fail me yah i can see your face but i canā€™t make out what youā€™re sayin i just fill in all the words and every little thing you taught me just know all of it was heard and if i forget this lesson may i be cursed a pact is just a promise we break before we burst a friends a flight of fancy that only fools put first in hopes of some reprieve from whatever we deem worse i just dig my grave whenever i do my dirt lit enough to act like missing you donā€™t hurt just wish i knew what else to do when the drugs donā€™t work

Ya me falta que Ya no tomo tragos Y ya me pasa que no se que hago Pero al rato ven que es lo que hago Moschino Brando en el bando Saben que yo mando, yo soy el comando Subcomandante Marcos al ataque Vamos ya buscando, vamos al volante Carlos el chacal, vienes a correr Te vamos a matar, tĆŗ lo vas a ver Sales pa correr, ya lo quieres pa comer Te falta ya el arroz pero vas a recojer Algo por ahĆ­ que te falta gasolina Vamos ya subiendo ya la adrenalina Saca guillotina, vamos a matarte Nos faltan pesos matamos a Bezos Buscamos a Marte matamos a Musk Vamos corriendo estĆ” muy cabron Viene la ira, buscando que miras Sacamos y chutas que vienes y tiras -PA- sacamos un disparo -PA PA PA- te buscamos en el carro -PA PA PA- viene para aqui, vienes para acĆ”, te vamos a matar Ya no sabes que voy a hacer Siento que voy a enloquecer Ya no sabes que voy a hacer Siento que voy a enloquecer [Translation] Don't you know what it is that I'm doing?
