Mental Anguish

Mental anguish, phalange to my temple aiming
Disengage and shift the angle now I pencil language
A simple change but requires a somewhat sanguine approach
To take my rage by the throat and choke it away, no joke

I'm at home more alone than Kevin McCallister
All attempts to connect imperiled by malevolent powers
My demeanor is dour, and I have every right to be when
I just can't seem to assuage the saboteur inside of me

Pred Pariah, a swell guy compelled to seek
Psychological exodus under alcoholic spell, aw hell
Prince Pred-iculous, a documented misfit, yup
With enough suppressed emotion to fill an episode of This Is Us

Bitch, shut up and stop obscuring your nature
No point in fearing the failure when hope is the real danger
Preddy please, open up and come up out of that shell
I swear to god I'm not horny, I just want to be held

I'm a sack of chemical reactions, a mixed bag of detachment with a
Knack for self destruction amongst other creative passions
Head full of dark imaginings, how to heal from these scars when
Every girl I loved I was forced to love from afar, my god

I am not a role model, I'm a whole problem
Sold off by my own folks so they could control optics
Shows-to-go-ya it requires discipline
When 9-5 dulls your senses, siphons all your commitment

Kendall Roy with the mental turmoil, a nigga in crisis
5:30's the time I arise from the slumber's vices
The grip loosens as I come to reanimate the lifeless
Vessel I'd deprived of my essence so I could fly the dimensionless

Skies of the dreamscape unguided, no point in trying to hide it
A soul mired in stagnation might could mean I'm past saving
Irises stained by the violence of mental anguish
The eyes I peered through as a child I'll never reacquaint with
