lyrics

I can’t take anymore
This is my confession
Pardon my aggression
This depression, regression, repression
Has been killing my expression
My obsession with progression has been leaving me with the impression that there is no time for decompression
Pardon my alliteration
But this aggravation
That I want to bring me to liberation
Maybe it deserves some reconsideration
Due to the isolation
The commiseration
The frustration
The desperation
I apologize for the non-cooperation
That has been causing so much exasperation
I apologize
For my absence
The avoidance
I am just trying
To be someone
To be something

My narrow concept of jealousy will kill me
I just want a legacy
People to remember me
Rejecting mediocrity
Impact
Affect
I just want to
Be something
That inspires you
So this is my
Last attempt
To start a fire
If it
Doesn’t
Catch on
I don’t know
What will happen
To my dreams
In my mind
I know that
Everything
That I have
Is all that
I could have
Asked for
But my dreams eat my heart away
I’m sorry
To all of
Those who I
Love with all
Of my heart
If I have
Made you feel less important
I am solving this puzzle
I’m trying
To slow things
Down, even though
Everything
Seems to be
Coming so
Quickly through my brain
I’m too overwhelmed to stop
