Yo, used to wake up with the sun, a smile wide and bright
Yo, used to wake up with the sun, a smile wide and bright Now I'm tangled in my thoughts, lost in the fading light Used to chase the dream, now I'm chasing what's inside A million conversations, nowhere left to hide. Headphones on blast, but the noise ain't from the beat It's the echo of decisions, every single street I walked, every word I spoke, every step I didn't take My own damn prosecutor, for goodness gracious sake. Remember summer days, feeling free and bold? Now the memories are hazy, stories left untold. 'Cause I'm dissecting moments, putting 'em on the stand Lost the joy of living, just a thought in my own hand. (Chorus) Stuck in my head, man, it's a hell of a fight Used to be happy, now it's endless night. This ain't a prison, but I'm serving time Trapped in my own mental paradigm. Yeah, it's a rap song, 'cause I gotta spit it out All these heavy feelings, what it's all about. From sunshine to shadows, a world turned upside down Trying to find my way back, outta this ghost town. (Verse 2) Every text, every glance, twisted into doubt What they really thinkin'? What's this all about? Over-analyzing, till the truth gets blurred and frayed A masterpiece of worry, meticulously made. Sleep don't come easy, when the brain won't ever quit Rewind, replay, fast-forward, can't find the off switch. Missed calls, missed moments, living in my mind's construct Paralyzed by possibilities, can't even self-destruct. They say "just breathe," but the air feels thin and tight When your greatest enemy is your own internal light Dimmed by self-critique, by fears that never end Wishing for a break, for this spiral to transcend. (Chorus) Stuck in my head, man, it's a hell of a fight Used to be happy, now it's endless night. This ain't a prison, but I'm serving time Trapped in my own mental paradigm. Yeah, it's a rap song, 'cause I gotta spit it out All these heavy feelings, what it's all about. From sunshine to shadows, a world turned upside down Trying to find my way back, outta this ghost town. (Bridge) But yo, I hear a whisper, a tiny little hum A memory of laughter, when the feeling used to come Without all the pressure, without the constant strain A glimpse of who I was, breaking through the mental rain. It's a process, I know, climbing out this deep abyss Gotta fight the shadows, reclaim that inner bliss. One thought at a time, one breath, one step ahead Breaking free from the chains, that were forged inside my head. (Chorus) Stuck in my head, man, it's a hell of a fight Used to be happy, now I'm reaching for the light. This ain't a prison, I'm breaking outta time Escaping my own mental paradigm. Yeah, it's a rap song, 'cause I gotta spit it out All these heavy feelings, what it's all about. From shadows to sunshine, gonna turn this thing around Gonna find my own way back, outta this ghost town.
