Untitled

Remember when you said that you loved me 
And that you really meant it
I guess you were just kidding 
Now I'm sitting here all in my feelings
Questioning these thoughts inside of my mind 
Like what kind of reality is this?
Everyone lies, everybody deceives
This life is full so much hatred and greed 
It puzzles me, no ones here when I'm falling apart at my seams
It's getting hard to believe that I'm there for everybody
But nobody's ever there for me

Just Lyrics

I’m stuck in my head, thinking of things i once said
Wishing that i was just dead, full of so many regrets
I bet nobody could have guessed that my life is a mess
At times it feels like there's a knife in my chest
In the middle of the night as i lye in my bed

Obsidian Mosque

I'm fading away to oblivion
Fates lead me to having a heart made of obsidian
Shatters easily but cuts deep
I'm feeling so weak, I can't believe it's been weeks 
Since we last had the chance to see 
Each other, its tearing me apart
You're about to be my baby mother, and I don't know where you are
We met after a year, sometime last summer
Now we're apart, you've got a piece of me 
More than just my heart, I wish that I had you 
I get that the things I said made you mad boo 
But don't you miss what we had?
Do you ever think of the past
All of the good memories, because they outweigh the bad

The Melody of Misery

These eternal thoughts Got me locked inside this infernal box
 Caught within the devil’s jaws It’s been so long, it seems as though I forgot
 The difference between who’s my enemy vs. who’s not 
Couple screws gone
 I’d make a deal with God but my soul’s bought
Now I’m trapped in this endless cycle of sin and pain 
No hope, no escape, no mercy, no gain
 Just a puppet on a string, dancing to the tune of fate
 A slave to my own choices, a victim of my own hate
 I search the Scriptures for a sign of grace 
But all I see is condemnation and disgrace
 I see the visions of the witches, telling me my doom
 But all I hear is silence, filling up the room 
Surrounded by misfortune and gloom
Its time I atone, its set in stone I’m never going home

Shadows Of The Past

Where did this all begin?
Maybe when I was still a kid
Listening to my family get into arguments..
Screaming like demons throwing 
Watched as it rolled by, at some point I lost my innocence
So in a sense I grew to resent 
Everyone who had it better than I did
Like did y'all ever spend nights on end 
Dealing with starvation?
No I'm not complaining
But man back then I didn't have .
At thirteen I was kicked out of my house 
So night after night I'd find a place to crash then when morning came around
I had to bounce, fourteen was when I thought I had it all figured out
Selling weed just to put food up in my mouth
Stealing alcohol just so I'd have friends who'd hangout
Fifteen is when everything went back south 
Drama, drugs, and sex is everything that brought me down

Mind Cage

I'm exploring things I don't yet comprehend,
Penning down my current moods, with a twist at the end
I’m just trying to transcend this mindset that I been trapped in
Yeah I been going through some things I wish could change
Praying to god saying his name in vain, yahweh
Yeah wait, I can't even complain because nothing's set in slate
I realize we’re all slaves to the same game.
Yet all we do is play the blame game.
I’m yelling out mayday lookin for away to escape
All this mundane

Newborn

Skin that has yet to be burned by the sun
A voice so new, words have yet to touch
Eyes that shine bright with wonder
A mind that endlessly ponders 
Thoughts that have yet to be molded 
My newborn son you truly are golden

Lights Path

Lost in thought, I wander aimlessly
Through the darkness of my mind
Searching for a glimmer of hope
A light that I might find

The weight of the world upon my shoulders
I struggle to stand tall
But with each step I take, I know
I'm moving towards the light, after all

For though the road may be long and winding
And the journey fraught with pain
I know that I will find my way
Once more, so I shall choose to remain
