War of Attrition
Verse 1: Patch
I'm in a
War of attrition
As I'm pursuing my mission
Where love don't get no admission
Coz momma don't see my vision
I listen to inner symptoms
Given by my condition
Wisdom is in the system
Destiny my hands written
But isn't apparent
Haven't got exposure for the talent
So my palette feeling dry
Tryna taste the fucking sky
Clouds tryna find a home
Abosorb themselves inside my dome
But I refuse to be a clone
Of this hopeless syndrome
Oh no
So tell me where you hope to find me
Tick the boxes of my goals
Without me wearing Nike
Now hide me, from the truth
Hell no not in the booth
You can tell me what I'm not
I'll add a K and pull it loose
Rewind that line until you get it
Once you do, do not forget it
I'm the antiseptic
To the dirt that we are stressed wit it
Nevertheless wit
This lack of witnesses
For my run of track and fitensses
I find myself becoming
Ever more just pissed with this
Hitless hits, that fail to hit
The organ where we feel our shit
And still I get
Closed doors
Crawling on all fucking fours
Tryna find a lane
Where I can mame them with my brain
I'm not the tame, no more insane
And I'm proving every claim
Lame never, way better
Light as feather, not ever
When you got the stress of the world pulling on your tether
And you tell it not to snap
But you ain't controlling that
Wanna see this shit get light
Before I see it fade to black
So you can tell me what I lack
Coz what they have I times by 10
So forget a facebook feed if Mr Luck is not your friend
And I'm sending out request
But yet he is yet to except
And that contributes to the fact
That I'm feeling dejected
I slept without
Closing my eyes
And dreams keep you awake if there just part of your life
Eyes peeled and ever ripe
While I'm looking for the signs
Got a mine inside my mind
And it could blow just any time
And it's war paint here
Through the trenches that I veer
And I'm too underground
Delays are too long under here
If my loved ones dreamed with me
I'd make it through more easily
But out of everyone it's only my lil bros that believe me
So I be with these and no one else
It's with them I share my wealth
And I do not give a fuck what you have to say if you did not help
Wasn't dealt the best
But the best is what I am
And the greatest of people always hard to understand
And I'm not half the man
That I'm aiming to be
But if you see a glimpse
Then just maybe, just maybe you'll bear with me
I'm bearing me, I'm bearing all
Pull emotions out the pool
Coz the one I'm swimming in
Is fucking drowning me in all
And I'm appalled, but cannot stall
But I must answer the call
Coz I strike with every stroke
Until the waves of them just fall
And I don't need it all, I just want more than this nothing
This has to be, it's not up for discussion
