[Intro]

I don’t know know recently, people younger than me...
They're getting mature jobs.
They're working at banks, getting paid 50-plus an hour,
while I'm sitting in my room just trying to... I don't know.
I just do it for myself, 'cause I know. I feel like if I wasn't making music,
I'd just have all this shit built up in my head, and I wouldn't be able to get it out.
I wouldn't know who to talk to.
I wouldn't know how to express myself the way I express myself now.
I wouldn't be the person I am, so that's why I keep pushing for it.
I keep pushing for it.
I wanna help people the way other people help me.
I wanna be able to put shit into perspective for people so they can realize it's their life,
and they can do what the fuck they want.
They don't need people to back them,
because all they need to do is back themselves at the end of the day.

[Hook]

Life keeps on goin’ by,
Yet I love wasting time, chasing all these highs.
Caught in the rhythm, lost in these fuckin’ files,
Pink-haired dreams fade, as indifference compiles.
Clock ticking louder, echoes in the night,
Lost in the shadows, searching for the light.
Fading colors of a once-vibrant sky,
Lost in the chaos, wondering why we try.

[Verse 1]

And I’m sorry to everybody,
Yeah, you’ll be grieving soon.
RIP Yung Flash, he’ll be leaving soon.
Sadly, it’s the pills that’s gon’ get me,
But that’s the only thing I love when I feel empty.
While I’m searchin’ for a meaning in a world that’s so wild,
Lost up in the echoes of my own mind’s trial.
Every heartbeat’s a reminder of the pain I hold inside,
A silent scream in a world where I simply abide.
Haunted by the ghosts of my past mistakes,
Chasing shadows of dreams that I know will never awake.
In the darkness, I seek a flicker of light,
Hoping to find a reason to continue the fight.
"I feel like music's the best way for me to express myself,
'Cause I can speak how I feel. Like, I could show people through example-type shit,
So they don't have to try to live it themselves, 'cause..."

[Bridge]

It's just the way I'm sayin' it sounds like my final message, but it's not. Not yet.
'Cause I know I gotta make it first, like for real, for real.
I gotta be able to put people in positions to win before I go.
I need to help people. Like, that is the only purpose of me being on this planet: to help people.
I don't know what else I was put here for. Like, no matter what, even if it's at my own expense.
Like, I wanna really help people. Nobody wants to live like this.
Like, yeah, I have my happy days. I'm happy sometimes.
I crack jokes, but I mean, I feel like I really do that to hide the pain.
To not let people know what's really going on inside.

[Hook]

Life keeps on goin’ by,
Yet I love wasting time, chasing all these highs.
Caught in the rhythm, lost in these fuckin’ files,
Pink-haired dreams fade, as indifference compiles.
Clock ticking louder, echoes in the night,
Lost in the shadows, searching for the light.
Fading colors of a once-vibrant sky,
Lost in the chaos, wondering why we try.
