Death Feels Close

Death feels close right now
I feel empty and alone right now
Rejected by my home right now
Yeah, I'm definitely on my own right now

I'm wired for desire and cursed by my potential
Bleed reality, so I make some niggas feel mental
Feelings of doom penetrate my heart tonight
Suicide, warfare, leaks in my art, my plight
The void is in the distance wherever I go
And I feel like it's gettin' closer the more that I know
And I'm fallin' in love with it, oblivion is beautiful
The pain in my soul is like some knives under my cuticles
Death seems more real by the day
And peace more desirable every time I wake
I've been in this life barely two decades
And I already feel I've been eaten away
By children in the fog
Who just can't reach me
And elders in the dark
Who just can't see me

Death feels close right now
I feel empty and alone right now
Rejected by my home right now
Yeah, I'm definitely on my own right now

Fantasy, xannies, mary jane in my brain
Ease up the pain, lift a little bit of the weight
Off my bosom, niggas lookin' and what I'm cookin
And feel like they need to be close
And to get close, they must act fake
But Imma be real, I'm the realest nigga I know
And real needs real around it for it to survive and grow
Surround real with fake, and the real suffocates
That's why I cannot and will not fuck with snakes
With this EP I'm trying to reach out to all the lost souls
Who become prey for these snakes when the dark rolls in
Lace 'em up with game and knowledge so they do not fold
And instead see and combat all the dark souls
That surround them and leech off of all their energy
Disrespect them 'til they heart feels like they in shit deep
I refuse to let kids fall victim to to the savagery
So even if I'll kill myself tomorrow, I'll at least try to teach today
