lyrics

Please accept my apology,
I’m a little too euphoric to be thinking logically,
how should I organize this happiness modestly?
what a day, I’ll tell you chronologically
Follow me, as I paint the day,
Pave the way for maydays to fade away,
Today was a great day,
I’m like Ice Cube without the drugs, cops or AKs
I woke up on the right side of the bed,
And I kept dreaming till no wrong was left on the right side of my head,
fist bumped my dad, Gave a kiss to my mama,
Nothing like nutella, cartoons and pajamas
The sun ignites my hunger for life a wonderful sight
My Facebook status had a hundred likes
Hit up Nicky C’s, wrote a verse to reverse lies,
Man the flow dispersed fire, got it on the first try
Hit up the homies and we laughing, relaxing,
Slapping some classics and freestyle rapping,
Open in the breeze and I’m feeling fantastic,
Coasting in the trees, I’m not even asthmatic
I laughed so hard I cried,
Its like the clock grew wings and dipped into the light sky the way time flies

The sun is going down, no wait,
The sun never goes down, the earth rotates,
So technically it’s always shining, the energy is always blinding, the melody is always climbing, no schedule or boring timing, just red and gold on the horizon, let it go and close those eyelids,
Arrived to the party, fashionably late,
Saw this girl across the room I gravitated,
Not to be cornier but her pupils and corneas had me captivated,
The euphoria, imagination fascinated,
Felt like we laughed for ages,
Had the hands of time faster pacing, (yes)



Part 2 (Dark)
I woke up on the wrong side of the bed,
chasing out all the right that was left there on the wrong side of my head,
My eyelids like magnets, I only slept for 5 hours,
I rolled out of bed, hopped into my shower,
Throw on my hood and I walk into the misty dusk,
What do you know? I missed the bus and then I kicked the dust,
Walk into class late, my teacher thinks I’m careless and pathetic,
Underestimating the situation, barely empathetic
She gave me a tardy, and told me I was hopeless
I sat down and started zoning and dozing and losing focus
The clock moving fast as molasses, trapped in this class,
My teacher asked for an answer and I bashfully passed
When people lie or try to impress, I’m sick of it,
But that’s ridiculous, I was just a hypocrite,
The flaws in my self are what I despise in others,
A reflection of the side I try to hide under the covers,
The traffic screaming at me, immersing me in loneliness
My pristine neighborhood becoming so monotonous
I’m hungry so I look into the fridge and jesus,
All we got are those god-damn spinach quishes,
Doing homework but I’m resting my pen, because my girl is texting again,
Oh no she said we’d be better as friends
But even my friends are accusing me of lies,
So I laugh it off until it’s bruising me inside,
So I’m smiling in discretion as I’m piling my aggression,
Take a giant and suppress it, through denial and repression
Maybe if I could just edit what I spoke,
Log on to facebook some fool is taking credit for my jokes,
Procrastinating, my mind swimming with eventuallys,
Exasperating, my parents had the nerve to lecture me,
Alex, you have to do the dishes, study for the SAT’s,
But how’s a test gonna measure my identity?
It’s like the elements are working together against me,
Spilling liquid out of my cup until it’s half empty,
I console myself, trying to be reminded of the pleasant,
I rewind it but cant find it cuz I’m blinded by the present,
My asthmatic throat is coughing and burning,
I’m yawning and yearning for sleep but I’m tossing and turning,
The darkness and doom is immune to the moon and clouds,
Feeling microscopic as my room is zooming out,
My dreams and reality are mending and blending,
Someone tell me when this nightmare is ending..
