How on Earth did I end up here
And when did I become we
For a minute there I lost myself
On the search to set my soul free
Sweet baby face, innocent smile
But little do they know
I got visions in my head
All around poppin' off
Hearts on sleeves bare arms
Like a gun show
Walking past cars
I daydream like Walter Mitty
Alter ego wishing I could hot wire
I just need to unload
Before I explode
Cool on the surface
But inside I'm on fire
So the economy
Has now brought me
Back to pens, papers,shows and notebooks
I contact Avatar
Who is far from subpar
Cause he's sick
With the verses and hooks
The fears I now face
Take my foot off homebase
Break the government's grip
Dispose of my whole case
The change I can taste
Stuck here in this space
Livin' like a nomad
Movin' from place to place
Catch me if you can
Cause I'm writin' bad checks
Try to pinpoint the moment
It became so complex
I tell my MD
I got ADHD
Cause I attempted college once
And one attempt became three
So forgive me - cause I can't be
Stuck in this institution
Cause either the classes are super mundane
Or it's me who is just simply dumb
A square peg stuck in a round whole
My nature not a competitive one
And what I left with didn't amount to the sum
Of the debt that I couldn't outrun
In constant transtition
But going nowhere
I could give you my all
Or shut down and not care
I dissect what reflects
From the mirror I stare
My therapy is the stage
When I leave my soul there
