Alien

For as long as I can remember
The music always seemed to be the missing puzzle piece
It was in my heart beat
Ever since I was a kid the melody was the dream
I'd be spazzing out in class, could never stay in my seat
Cuz I was never at peace, see the common consequence
When they would take my tunes away
Is I'd be bouncing off the walls again
Call it what you want but every doctor thought the proper fix
Was Adderall, Celexa, Venlafaxine, and Klonopin
I ain't joking man, I must be broken
I don't seem to understand the world the way that other people know it
I've been thinking like a poet, no one ever seems to notice
But the moment that I hear the rhythm start I'm hyper focused
Like my fucking life depended on it, maybe it does
Cuz the pattern of me stopping always ends up with me taking drugs
I'm not the only one, I'm just another artist
Diagnosed and written off cuz earthlings don't know what to make of us
I'm an alien, hands down
Check the frequency, the energy is always shifting when I come around
So call Houston, I'm about to fall through
The atmosphere, and bring some melody to get the ball moving
Grab the mic and start spewing, that's the only thing I've ever know
Fuck a venue, Imma hit the streets and grab a megaphone
I'll say the shit that leaves a throne overthrown
Man you shoulda known better than to let me in the zone
See I do this for the soul, going out of control
To let them know that I ain't into doing what I'm told
I'll hit the speaker like a preacher - I'm a truth teller
Spread the love, but still won't hesitate to be a rude fella
I'll spit an acapella just to get my heart pumping
I'll fuck around and cause a riot when I start busting
Circle A - then I'll hop on top of cars jumping
And start declaring these thoughts till I spark something
(take a breath)
Man, I guess I'm just another species
Sometimes I wish that I was normal though, cuz that looks easy
I try explaining but nobody believes me
And so I liberate myself, I'll grab the microphone to free me
From this bondage that I'm caught up in
I'll admit my train of thought may be a little of the rails
Fuck it, Imma follow it
See for me, the authenticity is key
So on the beat I'm bringing every piece of me to show you ALL of it
Fuck a career!
I measure my success by how many
People will come to lend me their ears
I put my heart, brain, blood, sweat, tears
In this shit so when I disappear, my soul will stay right here
BACK with a vengeance like I never left
And this time, Imma do it till my last breath
Yo, you may not like my shit
But you're never gonna find another mind like this!
I'm the individual, try to keep it simple though
I tend to over complicate it when I spit a flow
Getting back in touch with self, so I sit alone
Meditate for days and hit the stage when I'm in the zone
I keep it spiritual, although my thoughts are nihilistic
I'll demonstrate my point of view with every rhyme I'm spitting
You wouldn't get it like they didn't understand me then
I'M A MOTHER FUCKING ALIEN
