Keep Breathing

Yeah, can you picture losing freedom over-forced pharmaceuticals
And treated like some feces on the floor?
And the reason that they keep you is the people that you swore
Wouldn't leave you but indeed they all don't need you anymore
Might not be the truth but see how you perceived when you lost
For the things you do that's evil sanity can be the 'cause
And how they deal with you is equal so your fingers got to cross

Turn your back so they can't see you while you're speaking to the wall
You're putting up multiple and neither of them fall
When's the last time you've eaten or had sleep can you recall?
Can't remember anything memory leaving you is gone
Difficult to recognize them voices even when they call
Being puzzled how your brain's a bunch of pieces and they fall
You seem like you're at peace but there's a reason for it all
You learning to accept it aren't you even though it's wrong

Got you reaching for the stars hopefully it won't be long
Because you're dying inside and you don't even know what's wrong
It could be side-effects from everything that you been on
Your wife to be left you 'cause she needed someone strong
Said what happened to you, then she threw the ring at you and all
You see he was asleep and didn't see nothing at all
She packed him up and left you for a week and you were scarred
And all you could do was just scream 'til you were hoarse

Looking at the clock for hours thinking sheer and thinking off
This is not the way it ends someone please don't let me off
I'm incoherent driving almost speed into a wall
I don't know what I'm doing I just need it near a bar
Just in case nobody hears from me tomorrow
I promise I'll be back and what I mean is I'll be normal
As far-fetched as it sounds I really think I'll pull it off
A glimpse into my life is what I leak into these bars
'Cause I was once searching and while speaking to my God
I said

I keep, I keep fighting
When I go to search for myself I always say
I keep, I keep fighting
Just when you thought it was over I say
I'll keep breathing
Gotta keep breathing
I'll keep breathing
Gotta keep breathing
I'll keep breathing
Gotta keep breathing
I'll keep breathing

Made me drugs for the serotonin or dopamine
Eventually he made me mentally just let go of things
Hopefully some chemicals intervene when I go to think
But I was told to reap what you sew homie or so it seems
'Cause psychosis was woven into my soul and I know that
I'm more likely to go through it if I smoke or drink
But these things are helping me cope going through hell
I am so at war with myself so don't judge me if you're on the brink

A lot of studies show that money doesn't go to treat
The people that are going through the most
Not enough at least
You'd suck your teeth if you knew how there were only
Facilities so stringent got you really scared to go to sleep
A bunch of walking zombies are what we chose to be
Sedated and stabilized and feared to be on the streets
It's like mutiny to the few who are so unique

And me too that's my cue to be quarantined
Notice how I said reap it sew or so it seems?
Apoe E4 I think I own the gene
My mother was an E4 but that's a soldier thing
And for me to witnessin' the war I can only dream
And if life is but one, I guess it's lucid
Especially how the powers that be don't really control a thing
And unplug like Jon Bon Jovi and woke up

Feeling jovial, so what? This music is more than me
I'm barely twenty seven and feeling like I'm 43
A sixteen could make a difference to someone who ain't old as me
Meaning you don't have to be old to go through things
And that was all mathematically spoken for show and the
My strong suited daily rituals aren't meant for the weak
Headed towards the apex currently I can only peak
But sometimes I get lost and I pray my soul to keep
Trekking through this coarse terrain but whenever I go to sleep
It's like

I keep, I keep fighting
When I go to search for myself I always say
I keep, I keep fighting
Just when you thought it was over I say
I'll keep breathing
Gotta keep breathing
I'll keep breathing
Gotta keep breathing
I'll keep breathing
Gotta keep breathing
I'll keep breathing
