Linear.

Why's... life see linear
Everyday's similar
I guess the routine get's a bit too familiar
But, we're all just civilians
Others like me, well there must be millions
Nah, I'm one in a billion
Everyone's different
Every single person can do something brilliant
Like changing the world that we're living in
Forget about the dividends
At least for a second
You will see the world is giving in
I just remember that I'm privileged
I thought this life was getting hard for me
Now that's ridiculous
And all the lies are so conspicuous
The World should be a better place
At least for all these little kids
Look at all the plates that we're not finishing
Whilst others life forces seem to be diminishing
I guess the World ain't listening
It's as if we love the routine
Work - Consume - Die
And that plays on repeat
Average rappers acting like they're MVPs
But most fill these bars with an empty speech
So they can get on MTV
When I write these, bars it really empties me
My soul leaks out, I don't pretend to speak
No I hit this beat like a rescue team
But, if I lose myself who will rescue me?
Like, I didn't know this end was deep
But I still jumped in like I didn't plan B
I have a plan A, I think this plan chose me
And I
Don't mean to sound phony
But I rap so much how does my mouth not bleed?
Work so much
But I don't count those fees
Defying the rules like a soundless sea
Or even like a rounded peak
I looked for my strength
But I found me weak

I've never been down these streets
But I'll find my way, 'cause I found these streets
I've never been down these streets

But I'll find my way, 'cause I found these streets

Life just gets so linear
Everyday seems so similar
Dreams get lucid
It feels like we're all prisoners
Trapped in this hysteria
Never leaving our comforts
We stick to what's familiar
Life just gets so linear
Everyday seems so similar
Dreams get lucid
It feels like we're all prisoners
Trapped in this hysteria

Never leaving our comforts
We stick to what's familiar

I don't know what I should do next
I know I could do more but I always do less
That leaves me in one big mess
Now I've got to run fast just to catch my breath
You can't match these legs
No my stride's too long
And my pride's to dense
But this life won't make no sense
'Cause the more I try
The more it drains my strength
But the pain is not in vain my friend
'Cause when the pain gives way
I brings a strange feeling
Like you've grown inside
But you haven't aged since
Now that's the best kind of growth
Spending more time working
Leaves less time to boast
We're just way too centered
On our egos
Is that human nature? Well I suppose
But I didn't even write this no
I think my pen has a mind of it's own
I'm not mindless though
No my mind speaks out in a timeless zone
And my thoughts leak out beyond my control
Do I really have control
'Cause this is my story, I'm the central role
And I can't really find the essential code
And I can't crack safes, am I meant to though?
I just watch as the tension grows
I try and take a picture but my lense just broke
So I paint that picture with these songs I wrote
Am I really on my road?
I've got no data to check on my phone
I guess I've got to find out on my own

But I'm still to far and I can't get close
I hope that the gate to my goals ain't closed
My throat might ache but I still rap loads.

I've never been down these streets
But I'll find my way, 'cause I found these streets
I've never been down these streets
But I'll find my way, 'cause ai found these streets

Life just gets so linear
Everyday seems so similar
Dreams get lucid
It feels like we're all prisoners
Trapped in this hysteria
Never leaving our comforts
We stick to what's familiar
Life just gets so linear
Everyday seems so similar
Dreams get lucid
It feels like we're all prisoners
Trapped in this hysteria
Never leaving our comforts
We stick to what's familiar
