don’t even dare to patrol us Nobody can control us, the war on drugs didn’t solve nothing, Just now we gotta roll on our own one, Silencing continuing the suffering, Exceeding all emotions it is troubling, This state of narcosis is induced, By the drowsiness of people in the government
2.
A warm welcome if it’s your first time hearing this, If it’s not, then you’ll hear this on the greatest hits, 2022 gon be the year of Narkosis, If you don’t agree then I want what you’re smoking, Toking, choking on your words, Try to start beef well that’s absurd, Cos your words sound meat free, the digs don’t burn, So cry in the corner while we leave this earth yeah, 76 and 45 percentages I like, One for spirit strength and one for luck on rolling dice Gambling away my student finance tryna chase a dream, it could be hopeless but the chances are alluring me, take a chance on me, while I sign chances team, Our big day is much bigger than a wedding theme, And yes I do smoke weed, Take shrooms and lsd, But that’s nothing to brag about it’s just fun to me, I only walk in three, cos four tet bodies me, But 5 hours a day The sixcess bothers him Known in like 20 streets, That’s 20 more than Keith, “Now who is keith”, I dunno but that’s the point you see? I’m in a, Ocean of emotion, Bragging but feel hopeless, Hide it with some Hennessy and endless magic potion, My mind is not alerted, My strength is no more potent, So I be chilling, but I can’t lie I’m never focused Ocean of emotion, Bragging but feel hopeless, Hide it with some Hennessy and endless magic potion, My mind is not alerted, My strength is no more potent, So I be chilling, but I can’t lie I’m never focused 76 and 45 percentages I like, One for spirit strength and one for luck on rolling dice Gambling away my student finance tryna chase a dream, it could be hopeless but the chances are alluring me, 76 and 45 percentages I like, One for spirit strength and one for luck on rolling dice Gambling away my student finance tryna chase a dream, it could be hopeless but the chances are alluring me,

MAGICIAN 02:25
in the hospital bed healing up before I pull my next trick out the bag, Took a nasty fall last night and can’t feel much but my head still hurts really bad Think I’m a bit concussed and I’m dizzy but I think that’s from the booze I had and now I have to throw a bigger party but my anxiety ain’t glad, Compound fracture, Skull is shattered, From the, Stress of life as we know it, Never show shit, To the people we know around, never frown, keeping strength in the town, come round to my house for a party with the uv, Drenched melancholy dance sway about blood alcohol looking like a phone number Restless slumber Going under Chunder chunder Sick of this shit, Might just quit All the drink, And just start, Popping large pills Every night, Not a fright, But a sight, To behold, Never told, Anyone of My friends, So what then, If I die, What an end, My last trick, Magician’s death

HAVEN'S GATE 03:35
Yeah, yeah Feel like I’m floating on air, Turned religious it’s my new health scare, Pray every day that my life will compare, The gods are around us and watching unfair, Judgement on others from Jesus’ despair, Crossing out people from sins they can’t bear, You go against them and they will mark you for dead, Reincarnated as beings that stare, Into an abyss with no knowing end, Follow the stars it’s humanities trend, Doomsday is coming we’ve got to prepare, Jehovah’s in witness to corrupt affairs, From cults which are growing to spread their despair, Does heaven have gates? These are some questions that led us to go into space and find answers to, When, where, who, how, Did we get here and know that we’re around, Body, skin, bones, face, We can’t be alone questioning our own race, When, where, who, how, Did we get here and know that we’re around, Body, skin, bones, nose, Is there life out there or are we alone? Yeah, yeah Feel like I’m floating on air, Turned religious it’s my new health scare, Pray every day that my life will compare, In gods we believe there’s some comfort in tow, Knowing that in death there’s somewhere to go, Somewhere to breathe, Somewhere we’re free, Reincarnation or heaven beliefs, Where we Strive to succeed and have goals to achieve that will one day reward with ethereal dreams be with loved ones eternally, angels of poetry flourishing vistas and warmth from the all holy, Visions of driven and thickening mental fog all gone away and replaced with a touching enlightenment gorgeous environments envealoped with sunlight and rays from the gods that tried for us. fucking about near heaven gate, Safe haven for the good in place, want to get there but I’m flawed in this state, must be perfect to enter this way, can you break in if you’re fast enough? if you get caught you’ll live eternally rough, maybe by now it might be worth a try, cos I’m not a good person living not a good life

K-HOLES 02:28
I don’t think nice, But I don’t think mean, I’m not chasing bags, just chasing a dream, Be taking some trips, the sky turning green, I Hop on the bus, it moves without me It’s going too far, all I see is beams Just Hurdles to jump, will land on my feet I take some advice, it helps me succeed Got boundaries to push, I’ll see you at three In my rear view, Stay in your lane I got four to move, Never keep safe, always got something to prove, Keep on my side you got nothing to lose Go mainstream or stay niche what did I choose, Come and stay true or spill tea never leaf loose Had some dark times but I’m here the marks still bruise, But now I’m staying at the top and the thrones right screwed. Gimme some lean in a sippy cup K-holing right into a Ford pickup, Whole world spinning but that doesn’t mean me, Riding out solo, Xanax in my beans, Dream team on the radio stream, Off air but the gravities weak, On air and the bitches get weak, Con air plane crash as we speak, Con air plane crash on the dash board, As I drive through heaven gate who’s the landlord, Hash out a plan to make mine what is still yours, Silly getting dizzy in the moment where I step, 50 miles up and yet I feel smaller in death, Still shortness of breath, Am I still there yet? Am I still there yet? Am I still there yet?

Waking up it’s 5pm, Lips are chapped I forgot where I been, Turn the light on THERES clothes everywhere, I think somebody shaved off my hair, All these late nights building up, Head in a rush to call bluffs, Getting out my bed is enough Can’t even stomach washing stuff, In the 6 bed, Beachside bnb, That dirty south salvia, running through my bloodstream, Don’t think twice, bout what I consume if it gets me high you see? Humor the, 24 hour, Drugged up creative in the beachside bnb, In Milton Keynes, With a couple keen friends, love them to no end but I can never see, If they are annoyed with me, Staying up till it’s past 3, Waking up at around 3, Days melt together like they are cheese, but I do stay productive and work out, see, And I make a lot of music when I’m alone, beats, But I also can get quite sad with just me, So I try see people near daily, In the 6 bed, Beachside bnb, That dirty south salvia, running through my bloodstream, Don’t think twice, bout what I consume if it gets me high you see? Humor the, 24 hour, Drugged up creative Beachside bnb, That dirty south salvia, running through my bloodstream, Don’t think twice, bout what I consume if it gets me high you see? Humor the, 24 hour, Drugged up creative The social battery is low, I have nothing else to show, Don’t know how to talk you know, So I just might as well go.

Gimme that, what’s that? Controlled, by a mind hack, Future, looking more bleak, At least I got, a couple snap backs lay awake, barely work a day, staring out the window seeing others getting paid, while I lay in my room, feelings start to stay, Tryna be productive but I’m shit now anyway, where did my passion go? where did my fashion go? pj bottoms in the kitchen fuel my tragic woes, Now I just hide away, Just fucking hide away, Anger morphing into sadness as I melt like snow, Into my bed, Into the ground, Sent a mission, to compound, all emotions, make em drown, Machine elves, name em now, Only job, make me frown, make me frown, make me frown Machine elves, make me frown, make me frown, make me frown stay in my room, my mortal tomb, shedding mortal wounds, morality ensues, elves gone away, today, don’t want to play, dopamine drives me to sleep with a waking eye looking at these walls, Like I don’t know them at all, Noticing new things, Like Where the paper fring-, -es, where the elves can seep in, Where the demons leave scene, Where the people roam free, Gimme that, what’s that? Controlled, by a mind hack, Future, looking more bleak, At least I got, a couple snap backs Gimme that, what’s that? Controlled, by a mind hack, Future, looking more bleak, At least I got, a couple snap backs nto my bed, Into the ground, Sent a mission, to compound, all emotions, make em drown, Machine elves, name em now, Only job, make me frown, make me frown, make me frown Machine elves, make me frown, make me frown, make me frown

CLOUDY 02:45
A moment of peace, In the busy world surrounded in, bleeding cash but there’s no one healing sins razor thin blood pressure in this temperature is dangerous, mindfulness undervalued in the state of things, Keeping mindful of the clock, the days will tick away, Run astray, the white rabbit only leads you half the, way to fame, Stay in lanes, All the 10 hour work days, Sap the life out the creatives who want to play, In the mind of the free, Pen to paper wandering, Down the best of streets and alleys no one’s ever meant to see, kindly wondering, If it’s even all worth it, In the end, it depends, Satisfaction for yourself or teams? In the mind of the free, Pen to paper wandering, Down the best of streets and alleys no one’s ever meant to see, kindly wondering, If it’s even all worth it, In the end, it depends, Satisfaction for yourself or teams? In the mind of the free, Pen to paper wandering, Down the best of streets and alleys no one’s ever meant to see, kindly wondering, If it’s even all worth it, In the end, it depends, Satisfaction for yourself or teams? In the mind of the free, Pen to paper wandering, Down the best of streets and alleys no one’s ever meant to see, kindly wondering, If it’s even all worth it, In the end, it depends, Satisfaction for yourself or teams?

JAMBOREE 01:15
I can’t dream about, anything anymore, But I still try to forget the world that I lived in before, Through Your warmth, your love, a tender snowflake on my tongue, I can’t stand the thought, of ever hurting anyone, But through my isolation, it’s brought upon more than once, Through my silence, my coldness, a harsh breeze brought upon in the winter sun,
11.
Gimme forties in each hand, that’s a fucking foul, With the numbers that I’m doing sun eclipsed for now, Sweat drip off my brow and on my Gucci gown, Try to test me and I’ll fail you like school did now, Gimme forties in each hand, that’s a fucking foul, With the numbers that I’m doing sun eclipsed for now, Sweat drip off my brow and on my Gucci gown, Try to test me and I’ll fail you like school did now, Just threw up in the bathroom, had some lines and feel like a rascal, pray three times for something more helpful, god only knows if he heard my recital the spiteful disciples drag me back in, Sit my ass down floor of the basement, Looking like a scene from intervention, invent a story, nothing I did okay, okay, three bitches, LA, Suzuki, whipping, the roof just, caved in, glass ceilings, breaking, need money, break in, Your main bitch, eyeing, Your side bitch, buying come meet me at 10 to 5, Your Side bitch gon give me the eyes, This binge has me paying the price, anger when I should be nice, All I be eating is rice, but I got the chain it is ice, 2 dozen cars I don’t drive, so all I be getting is rides, Feel like a rollercoaster, My life is a rollercoaster, Emotions on the poster, Coke laid on the coaster, Too lazy to smoke Em, So I just party with them, Seeing the sun rise, Time for another line Gimme forties in each hand, that’s a fucking foul, With the numbers that I’m doing sun eclipsed for now, Sweat drip off my brow and on my Gucci gown, Try to test me and I’ll fail you like school did now, Gimme forties in each hand, that’s a fucking foul, With the numbers that I’m doing sun eclipsed for now, Sweat drip off my brow and on my Gucci gown, Try to test me and I’ll fail you like school did now,

BLOCKHEAD 01:42
Smoke this shit it makes you feel just like a (Blockhead!) Spinning around endlessly, ceiling looks like it’s caving in, Taking a moody walk and then my head just hits the pavement, I Wake up and the room is empty, where’s the door that I came in? Sudden rush of adrenaline, This ain’t somewhere I’ve been, The dreamchasers abyss, These Blockheads looking at me like I know them, Look in their eyes and my piercing gaze alerts them, They tell me, Snap out of it, Snap out of it, Snap out of it, Fade to black in an instant and now I’m, Spinning around endlessly, ceiling looks like it’s caving in, Taking a moody walk and then my head just hits the pavement, I Wake up back at home and wonder what even was happening, Sudden rush of adrenaline, I’m in the house I live, The comfiest of beds, These blockheads are my mates it seems I know them, Look in their eyes and my pleading cries alert them, They tell me, Snap out of it, Snap out of it, Snap out of it, Snap out of it, Snap out of it, Snap out of it, Snap out of it, Snap out of it, Snap out of it,

(Eli) How do I get better? Been two weeks since the ego death entered, Doing yoga to find balance, still not re-centered, Then I hear about a meteor hitting Winchester, Only got 2 months and the mood gets wetter, I’d go to therapy but they ain’t doing much better, So I sit in my room, watch the world go by, Both of my deaths being so intertwined They say a doomsday is coming but it’s already here, The end of all things, that you love shed a tear, While you shed some years right off your life, And panic buy 12 crates of sprite, There’s nothing there after you die, Accept your fate and don’t ask why Maybe that guy with a sign was right, The end is nigh you can see in the bright sky, Fights spilling out, many using crack pipes, Civil unrest growing through our own eyes, They say to have hope that’s a damn lie, All the Feds gone, Guns ring from up top, Shooting to kill, what? Doesn’t really matter cos THERES never gonna be cops, Steal another drop top, Rob another Topshop, Burn it all down brings the flames from hell up, Anarchy is everywhere, The anger’s going everywhere The stores are looking hella scarce The world is going out with flare The Meteors are hard to bear, We don’t look up we do not care It hits in days then nothing left No sins you’ll ever will repent
14.
Silence is another priceless asset, When you’re surrounded by voices your ears will dismiss it, Patience is a concept minds can’t get fit, When you’re on your feet all day you won’t think of it, Silence is another priceless asset, When you’re surrounded by voices your ears will dismiss it, Patience is a concept minds can’t get fit, When you’re on your feet all day you won’t think of it, Finally have some time, to sit around, And think about everything that’s gone down, A journey with no destination only steps, In this little mind of mine Jesus wept, This cluttered mental fog, starts to clear, I can feel the warm embrace is nearly here, The sun never felt so good until today, And it’s not even because I’m getting paid I been, Staring at my walls and thinking something profounds coming, But the only pro I found is that I gotta do shit, Can’t just get away with being overoptimistic, But I also now know that the better days mean getting through it, Into it, Crawl and fight the bad until it, Starts to bleed, The rush of clearing everything, Fly with me, Like Peter Pan my soul is free, Spirited, The clouds are closer than they seem, cleared my mental state, felt like a massive debt, Weighed me down, anchored right into my bed, accept the worst parts, but never sit with it, Now I’m rising to the top and you should deal with it
15.
I pray to god on darker days hoping my granddad’s in heaven, But sometimes I feel his love in a breeze in warmer weather, Forever and ever hoping I can see him one more time, I was 3 right when he died, can’t remember him alive, Whisper softly in my prayers, “do I make you proud?” I always hope he hears but the silence is just too loud, So I look at his old photos to try and know him better, But even in the clearest shots he seems fuzzier than ever, If you’re out there, anywhere, I want you to know I care, I wish a gentle wind wasn’t the only sign you’re there But Now it’s time to make you proud And show you where I’ve come I’ve been trying my best with music It could be a failure to some but, It helps me vent my feelings, Emotions and trauma, And on those darker days a few notes can make me warmer, People seem to love it but I always have my doubts, So I do it for myself and the fans will make me proud, Support me to no end, it makes me feel better, And at the point I’m at I feel more confident than ever So if you’re out there, anywhere, I hope you know this is for you, A memoir to those we’ve lost, and everyone we love too, This is all for everyone who’s loved and cared for me, Stuck through my mental struggle, that can’t have be easy, But I promise I’m getting better, it means the world you love me for being me. Thank you, goodnight.
