I watch it happen with my eyes wide open
You can tell them all that I'm not broken
And I've only got myself to blame
Oh yeah I wanna drive away
Stuck with a volcano inside my brain
I think I've gone insane
These words are the membrane
To restrain a tainted flow gone through my veins
And that is the window that controls my own emotions caught from closing
Now that we all know I'm senseless let me have a moment
I've got a problem and it's name is doubt
I started from the bottom then the bottom dropped out
Now it's not a lot of work to feel the pressure from the day to day
But lately days have darkened, indecision has been replicated
Lost my keys and my cell phone
But when I'm alone I don't need those
It takes up the tone and the tempo
Because my own mind's a perpetual freak show
If I had a rhyme for each bad thought
And a line every time that I ought not
To try to fight off all these onslaughts
Deep in my mind then this verse would be nonstop
I watch it happen with my eyes wide open
You can tell them all that I'm not broken
And I've only got myself to blame
Oh yeah I wanna drive away
A gas-mask for the hazmat
Means more than one duo can rap fast
Cause we all know that there's a format
And we gotta get out all the real facts
So giving me words that I can speak
And spreading them out ever so rapidly
Is the only thing that my philosophies
Still got better off than these monotonies
Hundreds of words every minute I spit it admitting that I never quite get it out
Now that my heart is a drum and my ears keep on humming it feels like a symphony now
So whether it's art or it's armor it's karma to know that my heart is a part of the beat
Honestly part of me knows I'm a fraud but otherwise I know it's easy to be
I'm psycho semantic
My antics are frantic
Got nowhere to turn
And this panic is manic
I crash and I burn
And I'm still like a mannequin
I'll never learn
How to stick to the plan
You're look at me now and say I'm alright
Well baby I don't think so
Cause times are changing now I'm the one out for the count
It's cause I saw it with my
Eyes wide open
You can tell them all that I'm not broken
And I've only got myself to blame
Oh yeah I wanna drive
And I was heartless
Thinking I would never stop this
But I got these thoughts and now I'm lost in all this conflict
And I was heartless
Thinking I would never stop this
But I got these thoughts and now I'm lost in all this conflict
