Lyrics
The morning rolled off me, as I downed a black coffee
The morning doesn't affect me much as I drink black coffee.
My vision stay misty, stay sticky like toffee
My vision is unclear and persistent like toffee.
My girl stays cross at me, cos I don't know the cost to be
My girlfriend is upset because I don't understand the cost of living this lifestyle.
Living this life, like this mission is lost to me Im 20%, still not paying my rent
I am only 20% there and struggling to pay my rent, feeling lost in my mission.
But im staying unbent, swaying on my fence Im undecided, at the place where im resided
Undecided and residing in government-provided housing, contemplating the situation.
Which the government provided, so why you try and hide it im like 20,000 under, every time
Consistently making mistakes and wondering about the future.
I blunder, I wonder
Continually making errors and questioning life.
When i'll light the sky up with the thunder
Asking when I'll achieve greatness and make an impact.
Im singing “aye currumba” as I waken from my slumber success is like the lottery
Expressing surprise and awakening, using "aye currumba."
I pick a random number
Comparing success to a lottery, choosing random paths.
So welcome to the twilight, im checking out the skylight
Entering a phase of reflection and observation in the twilight.
Im checking out the nightlight, checking out my eyesight deteriorating
Examining life, deteriorating eyesight, and the night.
Lost in my own delirium deleraelium, living inside the aquarium
Feeling lost in personal confusion, living in a confined mental space.
So breathe in with me, and lets see where the story is
Inviting others to join in the journey and skip to positive moments.
Skip to the good part, and get to where the glory is emerging victorious, that much is obvious
Striving for victory and emphasizing the obvious challenges.
Hard to be a real man, in this rap land misogynist
Expressing the difficulty of being a genuine man in a rap industry filled with misogyny.
Hard to keep moving as im walking through the boggiest hard
Struggling to keep moving in challenging circumstances.
To keep moving as im walking through the boggiest
Reiterating the difficulty of progress in challenging conditions.
Of waters, thinking of stuff you never thought of
Reflecting on unique thoughts stored in the mind.
Stored in the back of my mind like some sort of
Comparing the mind to an art exhibition with missing parts.
Art exhibition, with some parts looking missing
Addressing the listener's selective attention.
Im talking to your mind, but there's just parts of you that listen
Speaking passionately, encouraging the audience to listen.
So hark when im spitting, as you sit and reminisce
Urging attention while reminiscing about the past.
And i spark my ambition, and reload my ammunition
Igniting ambition and preparing for challenges.
In the dark I will glisten like a poacher going fishing
Glowing in the darkness like a skilled poacher.
Hold back when im waking, shaking up your dirty bacon
Being cautious and waking up the listener's senses.
Paying double for your rations, mashing up your dirty cash-in fashion
Commenting on societal issues and the cost of living.
Shows it when your faking, shaking fists up in my breaking patience
Revealing fake attitudes and losing patience with pretense.
Dont you know im pagan, making bridges like a mason
Identifying with pagan beliefs and building connections like a mason.
Placing pieces on my chess board, gets more stronger by the hour, power
Strategically placing elements in life, gaining strength.
Tasting sweet and sour, shower spits upon my flower, cower cover from the residents
Experiencing the ups and downs of life, metaphorically tasting sweet and sour.
The kings and queens and presidents
Referencing authority figures in society.
Bring me to and swallow whole
Feeling consumed by external pressures.
Break my bones and lose control
Expressing vulnerability and loss of control.
To my roots im heathen, breathing life into the season leaving traces of what im believing
Embracing unconventional beliefs and leaving a mark.
Traces of the gold im heaving
Leaving a trail of valuable experiences and achievements.
Scheming from the world im bleeding heeding no advice im needing
Plotting against societal norms and ignoring advice.
Fearing that somebody's nearing
Feeling anxious about potential threats.
Fearing that nobody's steering
Fearing a lack of direction and guidance.
