"Feet to the fire, got a wall made of back /
Stomach in my throat, trying not to collapse /
Been said, 'this too shall pass' /
But I'm sitting here staring at the tool on the dash /
Could turn thoughts into the truth in a flash /
And to think, my life was so smooth in the past /
I brood when I rap, but I sob off-camera /
Can't carry this weight, such low stamina /
Life's either famine or flood, no mercy /
Every ounce of me's scar tissue, try hurting me /
Image not concerning me, keep committing perjury /
Forgoing pills and surgery, here lies a bit of carbon /
That's decaying at a rate that's alarming /
But not fast enough to cause no harm and I am fucking done /
Hour after minute, every second is a curse /
I want to be one with nature, being beckoned by the earth"
