Inside My Mind (Demo)

Man, I was a lonely little sucka
Always tryna find a lover
Cuz I saw it in my mama's novelas
And every slumber
I would dream about the dreams of my dreams
A matter of fact
A figure of speech
I could not see the opportunities in front of me
While Mama was buildin' a bridge to luxury
Now, I'm 24
I spent my youth on always wantin' more and
Hard habits don't break quick
Ain't tryna get rich quick
I'm tryna follow on this long road
Get the ball rollin'
I'll succeed long as my humility slowly grows up past my ego
But really, where do we go?
Cuz maybe I got time, and maybe I don't
If I don't give life to my dreams then I kill my soul
Yeah

I was a lonely kid and always lived inside my mind
Yeah
I was a lonely kid and always lived inside my mind

Sit for a minute so I can laugh with you
Once this truth has made it's way through
To all your sentimental views
Of your struggles while you're caught in the coup
I'll pick pocket and loot ya brain's knowledge for old wisdom
That I forgot too soon
All of my memories run rampant
Slave to my own mind
Time to take strides
I slip by my own life
I don't wanna die
I don't wanna ride
On the River Styx
On it ever since
Gimme some time
Or I'mma take it
Eat a piece of cake with it
Just for the sake of it man
Sometimes you gotta fake it till you make it man
Hope my rhymes are reaching farther than my closest fam
Yeah

I'm a lonely person always livin' in my mind
Did you know?
I'm a lonely person always livin' in my mind

Check
I need time to rectify all my lies
I need time to rectify wasted time
I need time to rectify all the stupid fights
I'ma step in line
I'ma get the timing right
I need time to show myself that I'm doin' better
I need time to let myself be under the weather
I need time to show myself that everybody hurts
It is not the worst to feel like you will never be with them

I wish time came with a gold receipt
That I could back up with a never ending warranty
I said
I wish time came with a gold receipt
That I could back up with a never ending warranty, but

I will always be the only person in my mind
All along
I will always be the only person in my mind

Yo
So if you ever see somebody who's in need
Reach out your hand
You ain't even gotta understand what they going through
Cuz you already know it's true
The sufferin' inside you
The sufferin' unites you
Yo,
So if you ever see somebody who's in need
Reach out your hand
You ain't even gotta understand what they going through
Cuz you already know it's true
The sufferin' inside you
The sufferin' unites you
And I wrote

Don't ever keep all your love in
You never know who it might reach
Don't ever keep all your love in
You never know who might need you
Yeah, you
You, yeah
You
