Lost
Navigating the Depths of Self: N'shai Iman's 'Lost' Journey
Lyrics
I'm so lost in my own mind
I feel deeply confused and disoriented within my thoughts.
I'm losing all sense of time
My sense of time is slipping away, possibly due to inner turmoil.
If overthinking was a crime I'll be behind the lines
If excessive thinking were a crime, I would be facing the consequences.
I'm just trying to stay afloat upon these waters
I'm struggling to stay afloat amidst challenges and uncertainties.
I know this shit is dangerous
Acknowledging the risky nature of my current situation.
But I just can't stray away from it
Despite recognizing the danger, I find it difficult to distance myself.
Yeah I'm submerged underwater
I feel immersed and overwhelmed, perhaps by emotions or difficulties.
Yeah all these waves got me caught up
Challenges and problems are complicating my situation.
Drowning in my ambition yeah no one seems to listen
I'm overwhelmed by my ambitions, and it seems no one is paying attention.
I'm a bait for these fishes
I attract negative attention or criticism, like bait for fish.
And that heavy weight hasn't been lifted
The burden I carry hasn't lessened; I haven't allowed myself relief.
I haven't gave myself a chance to give in
I haven't given myself the opportunity to surrender or accept my situation.
Know my life tomorrow ain't a given
Tomorrow is uncertain, and I may not have a chance to live my life.
Perspective is my reglion but I'm stuck praising self image
While I value perspective, I'm stuck obsessing over my self-image.
Now I'm a hypocrite, I'm not use to this
I contradict my own values, feeling uncomfortable with this inconsistency.
Everything I say and do is an experiment
My actions and words are experimental, reflecting a sense of uncertainty.
Trying to understand what breaks me down I'm use to this
I'm accustomed to understanding what brings me down, as if it's normal.
Life throws my head around it don't give a shit
Life is tossing me around without any regard; it feels indifferent.
People say they want to save the day
People express a desire to help, but they haven't truly listened.
But if they opened their ears they would've made a way
If they paid attention, they could have found a way to assist.
Into my empty mind
Inviting others into my empty and troubled thoughts.
Into my empty heart
Sharing my emotional emptiness, perhaps a sense of loneliness.
Into my empty soul, hope your ears weren't close
Hoping that others haven't closed their hearts and minds to my struggles.
Maybe you'll understand
If you listen, you might comprehend my situation.
Why I'm so lost in my own mind
Reiteration of feeling lost in one's thoughts.
I'm losing all sense of time
Repeating the sense of losing track of time.
If overthinking was a crime I'll be behind the lines
Reiterating that overthinking feels like a punishable offense.
I'm just trying to stay afloat upon these waters
Struggling to navigate through challenging circumstances.
I know this shit is dangerous
Acknowledging the danger but unable to distance oneself from it.
But I just can't stray away from it
Despite recognizing the risk, there's a reluctance to break away.
