insomnia

No rest while I slumber Wave crest going under Nice life torn asunder Act like my days aren't numbered New year's eve saw an owl on the rooftop Blood moon rise not surprised when the news dropped Who's hot? Who's not? Matters of opinion Trynna find a path to a happier ending Everyone pretending their days aren't numbered World off his back atlas unencumbered Every night slumber shifts into bad dreams Back into the portal Blue light from the bright screen Trynna do the right thing but it's all relative Acting so positive it turns into a negative Trynna find a sedative Strong enough to fight the pain Whole life living tentative Numb to it like lidocaine Next week feeling right as rain Thank god now the crops'll grow Higher peaks I might attain Or fall down to the rocks below Nothing promised nothing guaranteed Navigate the underwater ocean I'm on Ganymede Faith is like a mustard seed Moving mountains with my mind Life lost to a poppy seed Flowing fountains left behind Dried up bones Abandoned crypts Tunnels underneath cathedrals Profits start to take a dip Now they're blaming ancient evils Normal people conversations New order of operations Rolling back the regulations Unpredicted fluctuations Expectations I'm exceeding Stab him to see if he starts bleeding Water leaking out my side Never lied Start to cry Eyes are wide Shut em to avoid the light Blinding shining from the sun Pondering it overnight Next morning I'm on the run Done No sleep mo' problems VVitches brew stewing Start bubble in the cauldron Owls who's who'ing In the woods like Walden Throwing darts a pic of Reagan on the wall My father shocked at the gall Meaning gets lost in the sprawl Grew up in the suburbs AP lit Five on it cuz I love words Wassup nerds Adjectives nouns & verbs It's so absurd They're so perturbed When I break away from the heard You heard me right kid Righteous Feeling like I figured out what life is Gotta keep the light behind your eyes until your lifeless No rest while I slumber Wave crest going under Nice life torn asunder Act like my days aren't numbered
