Inner mind
• Written by MikeMato
I'm done... Fucking done trying to fit what you want
I'm just gonna do me
Fight arousing deep in my mind intertwined with things that I find
As I write a line I'm confined to normal rap in these lines
say rappings impossible, kids get fame from just doing vines
aligned to survive being undermined with endless betrayal knives
back aches with lingering past stains, committed with no shame
Taken the blame for savages, who'd treat me fucking inhumane
slain pages fearlessly, possess a mark twain brain,
changed when I choose to restrain from time wasted on a complaint
leave the realm you've confined, dive into a line of what I devise
Rookie lives consist of lies, following down the path of demise
Keep talking about the hood, I'm taking selfies on the windshield look
Picking up the books while you paid nothing to pick up burgers to cook
I've just never been the tough guy, my life been taken lightly
unstable, ungrateful, unable to phrase the fuckery politely
To hateful souls so unfaithful, ha need to switch where they aiming
Nothing is outta reach if Im still see kids get rich off just gaming
wounded, isolated, funny you'd think that I'd hate it
think fulfillments overrated, then pay checks will come belated
Shit it escalated when you contemplated being manipulated
as you debated leaving beliefs, you and mediocrity aquatinted
Sure, prolly hate it, wish youd change it, yet you still sit back
Cause you lack the interact over the willpower you have
Than wake and shape the fuck up you fucks waiting for luck?
On the journey you get discouraged, keep working why give a fuck
been told the clock will tick on, but I think time stops when I write
belong to this abstract pad, running no time to look back
Lyrical attacks done more in history than charging with fists and bats
Combat with thoughts to collapse, but I avoid a second relapse
The more time to elapsed with rhymes on this pad I scratch
Hatch new hits becoming a mismatch giving you whiplash
Get smacked, quick smash,
split your bitch half if you threaten me with the past
Was an outcast, but alas reborn in the wrath of this bloodbath path
I do what I need to
Day after day
One day it'll pay off
One day
trapped to attack the tracks, to get a plaque in this rap
Work fast, so I slack for a week with no time elapsed
give up, cave in, that voice keep clawing in my mind
Then reminded the unkind results of not following the dream inclined
inner mind, mine is fried from smoke passing through
I'll make time for you promise, after I perform this passion on cue
When I make time for us, it comes crashing on through, onto you
never knew me and rap could be through, until I make it on through
Escape to Xbox for hours on end, pretend to be a gamer
Yet drop shooting and wall bouncing puts my dream in danger
Go ahead and fantasize bout being troops, meeting power rangers
I'll build skyscrapers so teenagers can relate, to feeling stranger
I'll never be sure I'm choosing to right, just instilled in this mind
Still behind the method of escaping the stranger waiting in line
I've been waiting all this time for someone to come and help me rise
Unaware waiting on hills of lies is a sure fire way to never shine
never outspoken, not the confidence to lead a convo
Self sorrow and pity is my continent, letting them lead as I follow
public I'm hollow and shy, afraid to confront or conduct any stunt
On the tract I run free amongst everyone I feel normallys above
These rhymes are my heroine, an American embarrassment
comparison to doing heroine, man this seems a settlement
get laughed still, ever since I was a kid too immature
assert and assure, play this political game of high school endorsed
I've cried and the floor, felt trapped in after lured
Now I work to procure these classes then coming to perform with
my passion, going with no intermission with this ambition
listen, gotta a problem, go fishing ain't my problem stop bitching
found something I don't screw up, this craft I write and conduct
Construct a new ego dump the old coward, time to reconstruct
enough of this front my whole life, trying so hard to be polite
Never fail to delight, but that guy died and made a new mike
Keep hiding behind the mask, become the face even you see
task's to fast from past screw ups and oppurtunity
Worrys nothing but burden, uncertain is a disturbance
Worthless letting it weigh you down, impossible to toss behind the curtains
