Lyrics
Now only time is looming
Expressing the imminent presence of time.
I know my life consuming
Acknowledging the consumption of one's life.
All of these thoughts of booming
Reflecting on impactful thoughts and experiences.
Just know I'm only human
Asserting human vulnerability.
Trouble to sleep at night but please know that it's a-okay
Struggling with sleep issues but reassuring that it's acceptable.
I'd rather stay today in bed to lay and waste away
Expressing a desire to stay in bed and waste time.
Want me to leave tomorrow say it straight up to my face
Open to direct communication about leaving or staying.
I think you're losing grace somewhat described a rapid pace
Perceiving a decline in someone's grace at a rapid pace.
This game of life I think the doc prescribed me purgatory
Comparing life to a game and feeling stuck in purgatory.
Some getting fame and glory, some getting blood and gory
Observing varied outcomes in life, including fame and gore.
But what's to come of the unwritten fate of Benny's story?
Pondering the unknown future of Benny's life story.
I place the choice inside your hands, you call it old and boring
Granting others the power to decide, perhaps dismissing it as boring.
I think I need to find a home where I can grow some
Expressing a need for a nurturing environment to grow.
Your petty children smoking rocks with your gross, um
Criticizing irresponsible behavior of others and drug use.
You think you know something
Questioning others' knowledge and understanding.
Watching your thoughts dissolve
Reflecting on the dissolution of thoughts.
Highest before the fall
Noting a peak before a downfall.
A faux life, all in all
Describing life as artificial or deceptive.
Who are you?
Posing an existential question about identity.
And who are we?
Extending the existential question to a collective "we."
And where we're going
Highlighting the mystery of the future and destination.
Is just a mystery
Conveying uncertainty about the future.
I got 15 pages with your face in it
Referencing a substantial document featuring someone's face.
Even if I catch a case, I'm in the eighth inning
Confidently facing challenges, possibly legal.
Ever since I left that base, I just stay winning
Enjoying continued success since leaving a certain situation.
And when the sun falls, I just stay sinning
Engaging in sinful behavior when the sun sets.
Just another bright day on the Ritalin
Describing a day with the use of Ritalin, a medication.
I don't like smoking, I'm just numbing pain
Expressing a dislike for smoking as a coping mechanism.
Cocaine in my right membrane, I said
Admitting to using cocaine for pain relief.
Mother fuckers making me go insane
Feeling driven to insanity by external factors.
I'm a flight risk, just a heavy buyer
Identifying as a potential risk for fleeing situations.
My supplier getting caught through the copper wire
Acknowledging the risk of the supplier getting caught.
I've been taking more but I ain't been getting higher
Using substances without achieving the desired high.
Watch me start the fire
Symbolically starting a figurative fire or chaos.
Let it slowly burn
Allowing a gradual and intentional transformation or destruction.
Turn that shit into my homie
Turning challenges into a close companion.
Ash inside the urn
Referencing ashes in an urn, possibly symbolizing consequences.
