[Hook]
Stop the press, everything's a mess

You can look alive, but you are not at rest
Ideas are flowing through your head
A million miles an hour, while lying in your bed

A lucid life you never thought you'd lead
Are you working everyday, are you working just to bleed?
I know, I know, I know, I know


[Verse 1]
I'll never understand how or why you think the way you do

I can't comprehend the fact that you think I should bow to you
You judge as if you're heaven sent, did you forget you're human too?
Your opinion is irrelevant, much like your twisted point of view

I've been through some bull%#@!, been degraded and hated on
They told me I was full of it, never made it guess I played it wrong
But I'ma keep on doin' it, ain't no way I'll ever stop

Go and try to ruin it, but I'ma make it to the top.
That's the only route I see, that's where I am bound to be
And if you ever doubted me, don't try to get %#@! out of me

You can pick your friends, but you cannot pick your enemies
Keep up my defence, cause I know they're both jealous of me
Full of positivity, born to be a prodigy

Beyond the best that I can be, not caring what you thought of me
That's the way I choose to be, I'm sorry, but I had to leave
I'm following my destiny, until the day I cease to breathe

Stop the press, everything's a mess

You can look alive, but you are not at rest
Ideas are flowing through your head
A million miles an hour, while lying in your bed

A lucid life you never thought you'd lead
Are you working everyday, are you working just to bleed?
I know, I know, I know, I know


[Verse 2]
Its chilling in my spine, to know the end result of life is death

With that thought in mind, I begin to cherish every single breath
No more wasting time, I'ma fight to be the very best
One of a kind, I'ma shine and rise above the rest

You hate me cause I'm disparate, I think you're all the same
So I just grin and bear it, cause I know I put you all to shame
Don't act like I'm transparent, and ignore the things I say

We all know it's apparent, that someday you'll know my name
Worked hard so I deserve this, and because I know it's worth it
The thought still makes me nervous, but I'm positive I've earned this.

I possess intelligence, excellence and elegance
The evidence is relevant to the presence of my prevalence
I'm doing this for me, cause who else has had my back?

When no one else believed, I just made another track
I made myself a promise that I'll keep until the day I die
Without an ounce of conscience, I really only look alive

You can look alive, but you are not at rest

A lucid life you never thought you'd lead
Are you working everyday, are you working just to bleed?
I know, I know, I know, I know
