Slick Little - DARK MODE

I hold my breath to escape
Close my eyes and contemplate a glimpse at a dark fate
When I go in dark mode, my mind dims just for a second - right before I let go
Why am I laying in a half filled bathtub, inches away from filling the rest up with red suds
Contemplating the worst because I give up, tired and winded and I just can't get enough
Rest, Shit, should take a second to breathe
But man, All I can think about are these palpable things
Slowly following me, criticizing every move
The world of support, but feel alone when I follow through
Spending my days focusing on my presence
But I just can't, I just can't live in the present
What do you do if you can't live in the present
Past and the future controlling my mental state, I'm left with

I'm left with a lot to think about

The rain falls, we ain't controlling it
Just as sure as the sun keeps on burning shit
And I'm trying as best I can to remember that
But the smallest little thing and then I'm turning back
And I never really wanted much
Just enough to make a living and live it up
I wanna live well and end well
Am I destined for greatness? kinda hard to tell
But, different times request different methods
Severed from the rest because I come with a message
I'm Following footsteps, and paying in dividends
But success is expensive and comes with no reprimands
Gifted soul, but having trouble feeling whole
A fine tuned machine but getting harder to control
The tides of time slowly wash away
And leaves us in this moment in our present day

Lemme take a second so I can re-evaluate
Spark the tree of knowledge, now my words are assimilating
Slowly, but increasing momentum
Feel your world shake from foot to your septum
Snap of the synapse, the cerebellum reflects it
Now your body's moving as if it's possessed and
For a brief moment in time, you feel yourself realign
Then it all goes back into the same shit

I hold my breath to escape
Close my eyes and contemplate a glimpse at a dark fate
When I go in dark mode, my mind dims just for a second - right before I let go
Why am I laying in a half filled bathtub, inches away from filling the rest up with red suds
Always Thinking about the worst because I give up, tired and winded and I just can't get Enough
Of a break, fuck I'm tired for God's sake
Wanna give it all away cause I have more than I could take
And I'm feeling it fade, the day to day becomes monotonous
In every single way, the bitterness turns to Callousness
Maybe I am finally at the end of my tunnel
No lights in sight, no words for rebuttal
No care to give, few reasons left to live
Can all end in an instant, but it is what it is...
I guess it is what it is...
