ERA
Distant
Verse 1:
I never thought I'd be the kinda guy to do this
But truth is, I'm in over my head with this music
It's tragic how i got all of my eggs in one basket
But tell me to rearrange them your askin to get your ass kicked

That's it. Wish I could go back like magic
Friends are disappearing like a rabbit in the hat trick
Feelin like I'm spongebob, without my homie Patrick
I’m bat shit insane opposite of fantastic

Unhappily lackin apathy
As my raps gain fast vast mass rapidly
Slackin on my sanity. Ignorin my family
The ones who love me are casualties of tragedy

That is how it has to be. I wish it was a fallacy
Pushing folks away always seems to be my strategy
All these people mad at me
Tunnel vision avidly
I hope gradually this eventually pays my salary
I’ll stack that cheese

Pre-Hook (x2):
Ayo I’m gettin frickin sick of tryna fit in
You think that you’re the only other person with opinions
I’m never quitin on a mission in this business
This big risk, got me feelin ever so distant
Era’s Hook (x2):
I finally found it in the space in between the notes
Feeling trapped on a roller that would never coast
Feeling lost on a path none have ever chose
Now the melody can turn and away it goes

Verse 2:
And it’s gettin harder and harder
I’m socially retarded, but my rhymes are gettin sharper
Yeah my bars are gettin smarter than graduate from Harvard
My vocabulary’s larger than a laboratory mouse herd

But everything always comes at a cost
A wedding ring, a couple friends that I’ve gained then lost?
I feel the pain and man it drains, I feel so exhausted
Can never look back cuz when I do I’m always nauseous

And it’s not something want
Rather one thing I need, it’s becoming taunt
I just wanna be heard, want people to know of my art
But it’s hard when you go and seclude yourself from the start

I love being by myself, but I hate feeling alone
That’s probably the only reason for these songs
I power down my phone. Get into the zone
And drift away until the day I’m sittin on a throne
(Pre-Hook)
