lyrics

Constantly I wake up to a grey day
Adults never miss a chance to say I'm in my heyday
Handing in my life like it's my work but I'm a day late
Visions of a vaca but I'm told I have to vacate
I stay late
Sitting there staring at the wall wait
Eyes rolling back into my skull I'm bound to fall
Stray all day and regain my focus in the night
Welcoming the darkness smiling wide at the dying light
I might go in one direction or the other
No drug can satisfy this addict and his lover
Using shadows as a road and using shade for cover
Doing my best to make proud my dad and mother
Rapping like im auctioning but only on a smallscale
Expectations set so low I suspect that I'll fail
But at least I accept that there is always someone better
I'll still get my welcome to the game acceptance letter
I'm building my empire with writer's block on sand
God told us not to but We didn't understand
Raise up a fist to power but looks like a show of hands
It's morning soon and I'll be mourning darkness in this land

Yawn

In the night I'm alright
In the shadows I am on

Yawn

Don't know what to think now
Always had a plan I made it happen when it's written down
But now it's not up to me to fit the crown
I promise honest I won't let myself hit the ground
After the kick off
Initially I thought success came easy but I was off
Aim for neither gold or green and roses aren't my thing
But I wouldn't mind a nice place where I can sleep in a loft
As of now? Consider me lost
That's what I consider myself and it's what I caused
Pause for a moment
Enjoy the flaws
Seem to slink away from rain or shine today I lost my job
But in fact I don't want to keep my day job at a loss
I'm tired cause I sleep on these kids that are soft
I'm in tune with the tomb
Rooms alone with Miss Croft
Think twice about your life and weight the cost
Of going big, think after I open my jaws and

Yawn

say hello to my shadows
I just can't win this battle

Yawn
