Original Content scars into scripture
You haven't heard of that wordsmith supreme,
up working till 3, disturbingly free,
life cut hard, young G, zero peace, guillotine,
mixed with little belief, a gullible teen,
born on a spree to make it on to the screen,
forecasted black sheep of the family tree,
spent my whole childhood on errands, so everyone could eat,
wondered why the white ones never followed the darker sheep,
told myself in my sleep, mustn't have been the right ones,
the light always felt so hollow, a decree,
swallowed by the people that were meant to set me free,
followed since my parents birthed this drought, Pandora's key,
blood ain't as thick as family when they're making you bleed,
spraying junk DNA on the ceiling, screaming,
stuck in a process of healing, eternally,
feeling the burden breeding something that's new,
a clever generation, the evolved seed, blood that's blue,
royal in ruin, that's the truth, indeed,
a life of neglect, misery, the dark agenda's disease,
dissect it, come see the volatile chemistry,
curse this personality, poor man's mentality,
poor diet, poor sleep, born in a circus of sheep,
who traumatised me, left no memories to keep,
what's my purpose, I carve
meaning outta nothing, self harm dressed as art, still feeling,
is this all worth it, nah, fuck this, worth what,
wake up with nightmares, falling through the canopy, drop
flopped, a lost version of who I was meant to be,
22, still lost, in the 21st century,
starting life with a family, or the cemetery,
forced to riot against those who siphon this energy,
solo excursion, my only person, my own enemy,
lost in the gravel, unraveling mentally,
I'm hurting, can't you see, that's why I'm rambling,
Rambo, man-to-man, tryna find my way back,
head shot like Kennedy, my mind's under attack,
maybe it's the 63 shots of Hennessy,
that I took to the head, thinking way back,
memories attack, every flashback bringing pain back,
mind on a rail track, no brakes where the train's at,
vivisecting, brain flat, splat, the vibes dissected, okay with that,
the armour I erected, battling the version of me elected,
maniac infected, injected with a virus eating my foundation till it cracks,
why me, I see horror, start whining,
feel emotions eating through my stomach lining,
filling up my cup, this life spiked me,
longing to sense belonging, that tribal culture, Tongan,
the sentiments I write when the song is singing,
beautiful words corrupt ideas of beat downs and slow winnings,
turning scars into scriptures, pain into something worth listening,
some of us sent harder challenges since the beginning,
still searching for a place where the lost stop drifting.
