BUILDING BLUEPRINT
Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
The Ordeal
- I can't decipher fact from fiction,
- Neither decision will help with the visions
- Of sins I've committed, memories twisted
- And all of the things to which I've been addicted
- People say I should have some kind of compass,
- 'Cause without a light I will never be right
- But among this existence I still feel enlightened
- And in fact my grip over time, it has tightened
- When I was younger, I used to feel frightened
- At what I might end up becoming
- Surrounded by violence, domestic and otherwise,
- Life must come with lows to appreciate the highs
- Day after day as the bills keep piling up, keep your chin up
- Focus on tomorrow, you're only stuck if you say so
- So much of our lives is attitude, how you respond
- To the shit that happens to you
- Is this all a dream, or is this actually real?
- This whole ordeal has gotten out of hand,
- I'm trapped inside this mental prison,
- Feel like a hamster on a wheel that never stops
- Shifted perception, it begs the question
- What can you accomplish with intention?
- Could it be turned into a weapon?
- Take the right pill, go deeper down the rabbit hole
- Meet with the Mad Hatter and regain control
- Isn't that the entire goal in life? Find what drives you
- Some of my friends found joy in pills, and others still
- Can't get it right
- They wasting time, just working jobs
- Dead end jobs, through day and night
- It's quite the sight to watch them wane
- How are they not going insane?
- I must refrain from mentioning names, but I do think
- It's a fucking shame, but who's to blame for what they became?
- Living life in pain, how could you maintain?
- If you ain't using yours, I'll take your brain
- Is this all a dream, or is this actually real?
- This whole ordeal has gotten out of hand,
- I'm trapped inside this mental prison,
- Feel like a hamster on a wheel that never stops
- I got a proboscis now, and no thought can slow me down
- I got a lock on this endgame, and a rot in my brain, sepsis
- I bet this is shocking to the sheep I'm surrounded by,
- They probably think I'm a shy guy because I ruminate all day,
- An Intellectual giant in disguise who despises them anyway
- Keep your opinions to yourself,
- I really don't give a fuck about what you think of me
- I have a thought, I'll keep doing me,
- And you can try to get through to me, but remember
- None of it is new to me
- When I woke up this morning and jumped out of bed,
- While you slump over your keyboard looking halfway dead
- I took a fat dump, shit, showered, and shaved
- Before grabbing a brick and continuing to pave on the
- Road to my vision, embedded in neurons,
- A billion revisions to what this could cause
- Is this all a dream, or is this actually real?
- This whole ordeal has gotten out of hand,
- I'm trapped inside this mental prison,
- Feel like a hamster on a wheel that never stops
- Manipulate my life at will, no stipulations fit the bill
- I just want to be happy and chill, for real
- Y'all talk about the most petty of things, and yet something's
- Still missing from the puzzle I think
- On the brink of discovering what keeps you underwater,
- How much longer can you hold your breathe?
- And will this make you any stronger?
- If not, why you doing it, wasting all that energy?
- It's time to live life with some synergy, and free your time
- For things you will do until you die
- Multiply the things you love,
- Subtract the things you don't
- Abstract as it is to hear a nobody say it,
- Division only leads to a life that is broke
