Lyrics:

I'm an egomaniac and I don't even hide it
Checking concert vids I attended to see if I'm in
Even the tiniest clip of absolute insignificance
Then I turn to all my friends and be like: "You see that shit?"
I ripped it with my hands in the air
And I'll assault your face with some bass if you don't seem to care
Can't stop staring at this pale monster behind the mirror
Then I'll leave the bathroom in a stank with an air
Of unfound self-entitlement, just because I write a bit
I claim to be a poet even though I know I can't rhyme for shit
Hypocrite at best, joke of the town at worst
I'd like to check your new videos out, but first
I'm gonna listen to that wack shit I posted to Youtube
Hype my track, send it to you like it was something smooth
I'll get in a groove and pretend to be deep
But I haven't written decent lines since Rusty Chain and the link
Missin's the substances I used to be lickin'
Used to get a good trip off DXM and booze and now I'm hittin'
Nothing except the pen syringe into sheet veins
Honestly, the lack of drugs is making my music plain
I'm still gonna make tracks and give it a go
'Cus I'm an egotistical asshole, now I know
That the meaningful thoughts oozing from my frontal lobes
Only erupt when my confidence hits deep lows
Which is easy to do strung out on chemical abuse
Trading brain cells and age for that creative juice
At this point my liver's blue, detoxing slower than glue
Goodbye beer shits, hello constipated poo
Haven't slept in far too long
All my songs sound even worse now that the buzz is gone
I'm twitching at night at the return of ADD
Seeing in three replaced with cold sweats and too much energy
Its 1:33, can't sleep, I'm scatterbrained
Hold onto thoughts like Asher Roth did a career, which is to say
I can't. The intention of this jam
Originally planned to show the egomaniac that I am
But this damn detox lets me plot my thoughts
About as well as Michael J. Fox connects the dots
(Pop Pop!) That's the sound when my body dropped
From sleep deprivation mixed with suicidal thoughts
I used to think I was raw, but that was the cocaine
Should have cut it with realistic expectations of my fame
Or lack of. A real man would sack up
But I fucking hate sobriety, I should pack up
Forget about getting my stacks up and move
Somewhere tropical where I can sip booze under the moon
Maybe pick up a habit or two
But I know I'm stuck in my room, sober and talking to you

  • You're an inspiration, truly man. I've found so much good music through you, and now you're getting in the game and putting out your own stuff that I can enjoy. Makes me wanna go make some of my own music, which I've been seriously thinking about doing lately. We'll see.

  • @SkylarrL Do it! Making music has been the most satisfying venture that I've had the pleasure of doing in my 23 years.
