The bottle gets hollow/ my mind starts racing
Don’t know who to follow/ sit can’t keep pacing
Chasing liquor with beer/ And I keep spacing
Out there goes another year/ this time I’m facing
Demons. I still hear the screaming
Dreaming. Then why am I bleeding
Weeping. Looks like I’m not sleeping
Leaving. But that’s so misleading
Shots lets do lots/ black out lets forget
caught by the cops/ back to the regrets
Shot for the top/ jack yelled out a threat
Stop so I thought/ yack no well not yet
Let’s have some more/ pour me another
Trying to forget your face/ and this place
Let’s have some more/ pour me another
Crying cause I can’t erase/ my mistakes
-Hook-Switch-
Sick/ I have this addiction
Pills/ I have no restriction
Trick/ Fall for my fiction
Sick/ I have this addiction
-Verse II- Preformed By- Illuminatic
I can't leave, and I feel myself twisted up.
Alcohol, pills, everything I mix it up.
I sit down, and I'm waiting still for the rush.
It doesn't matter though, no, cause she's not enough.
I can't leave... She pulls me back in.
I can't breath. It's the proof, in that gin.
It's the truth. And then poof, I'm that sick.
Another night, with this bottle I'm stuck with.
Getting colder. I'm not sober.
Fuck everything, it's not over.
It's the way that I think. It's the way that she drinks.
It's the way that I feel when I sink in.
Two shots of this liquor that I'm deep in.
I pour another, with the hopes that I'll leap in.
I got another I could mix in.
Fuck it all, it's my youth that I'm ditch-in.
-Switch-
Sick/ I have this addiction
Pills/ I have no restriction
Sick of falling apart/ bottle after bottle
It’s taking my heart/ always feel so awful
Sick/ I have this addiction
Pills/ I have no restriction
Black out won’t listen/ whiskey sour whistling
Black out and pissing/ thanks to this addiction

Listen.
I’m hiding in the shadows/ I’m keeping my distance
Don’t want to disrupt anything/ or scare anyone
Always fighting this battle/ because I’m so twisted
And I’m still always resisting/ that’s what I have none
Nothing the same difference/ will you just fucking listen
Take a step back/ this hit and just relax
Everyone cheats the system/ cry and say they’re the victim
It’s grey and black/ alone got my own back
I’m out of sight out of mind/ I’m out of my mind
Twisted I’m one of a kind/ always on the grind
I’m out of sight out of mind/ But your all so blind
Twisted I’m one of a kind/ Always in my prime
I’m about to stand my ground/ snatch up that fucking crown
I’ll hold my position/ that’s my fucking mission
About to go round for round/ watch these fucking haters drown
I’m full of ambition/ watch the transition

I can feel my heart cave in/ and my blood get thin
I’m starting to lose wind/ I guess I can’t win
In the background sitting/ I feel it slipping
My pulse keeps skipping/ so is this living
Another fight the other night/ the thunder strikes on sunday night
Shit creek and no paddle/ a back and fourth battle
Out of spite with summer light/ the color bright the lovers right
To much of a hassle/ jump into my capsule
Travel. See all the castles/ break away from the cattle
Embrace. where we will awake/ insane but just for today...cause
Everything burns
And the world still turns
And everything burns
I won’t ever learn
I won’t ever learn
And everything burns
And the world still turns
And everything burns
[Verse Two]{Performed by Illuminatic}
It's still burning. 2nd degree, when she mentions me.
My heart convulses. I'm divulging what was meant to be.
I'm trying to succeed, I'm wired to believe.
That you are the only person that was truly meant for me.
Maybe one day, I'll break the habit. And leave this cage.
Laying on this mattress, thinking back to when we layed.
together. Never been worse, but I've never been better.
ever. Fuck what you thought, but I never say never.
I'm leaving here. Hopefully in one piece.
But before I go, let me say this one thing.
-Bridge-
And everything burns/ I won’t ever learn
I can feel my heart cave in/ and my blood get thin
And everything burns/ I won’t ever learn
Insane but just for today/ okay right where we lay

Intro-
It’s a long walk home/ It’s cold and I’m stoned
Watching the trees bend from the breeze/ and all of the leaves blow
Afraid and alone/ there’s snow my flesh bones
Depressed just another disease/ watch here’s the tornado
-Verse one-
It’s a long walk home/ It’s cold and I’m stoned
Another night with some snow/ watch it all blow
It’s a no parking zone/ I’m told change that tone
But it’s a fact that’s known/ I’m cold like some stone
Heart frozen to the bone/ it’s always saying don’t
I want to paint a picture/ express all my thoughts
I can when I’m alone/ and for you I just won’t
I want to down this pitcher/ guess I’ll have a shot
Looks like the devils about to win/ watch me sin
Spin-puke another gross binge/ all the kids cringe
Looks like the devils got the upper hand/ I’m his fan
Stan-it’s time to expand/ take on this land
I want to paint a picture/ dreams become reality
So light up a swisher/ beam up that morality
It’s cold and I’m stoned/ It’s okay cause I’m home
I’m told I’m alone/ It’s okay on this throne
Hook{Performed by Notebook}
buy another round. write another poem.
you know what? I'm so done
I run like a bloody nose, from insecurities
I used you like a crutch, and I’m weak in the knees
oh no... I run like a bloody nose x3
Oh no....
-verse 2-
Let me get inside your head/ scribble some images
Instances where I was limitless/ burning down old bridges
Let me get inside your head/ describe some villages
Primitive but they invasion it/ traveling distances
And now I’m standing here alone/ outside and I’m cold
A disease infected to the bone/ with a heart of coal
I’m frozen harder then some stone/ rock with not a soul
A man that’s lost all of his hope/ with nothing to hold
Confused and I dug my own hole/ away from the road
Abused and now i can’t let go/ should’ve long ago
Standing with a bloody nose/ everybody knows
Can’t have highs without the lows/ that’s how we all grow
I want to paint a picture/ express all my thoughts
But can’t with this liquor/ depressed with these shots
Downing all of these pitchers/ A mess so we fought
I’m writing down some scriptures/ a test you were caught
-hook-
Verse Three{Performed by Notebook}
why's it hard to let go and not deny it, though I'm frightened by the echo?
so, I stuff it down, fight, and grind the threshold
to my surprise, the higher that it climbs and gets repressed
no hold could tighten up its grip and continue to bind the vice and press lower...
my arms are feeling lifeless; they dangle beside me
siphoning cable to drive a body of pain through an I.V
why me? the pity is killing me quicker than execution
retribution for the death consuming all of my flesh and loose-ends
you win, you win; I'm tapping out and moving on
the last laugh? you can have it, 'cause I'm through with balling fists
all I did was try to be the bigger guy and never quit, but times have changed
wisdom likes to tell me not to get trapped inside your cage
don't swim towards a current full of tidal waves
don't grip a sword and curse the fool igniting pain
it lives to hurt your nerves with grueling mind games
side-frame with the flash on; don't turn your eyes
stay focused. they know this. won't hear or see my evil,
believe or fear those invisible people here that speak through
following the marks that I left in the sand
when I thought that if I walked, they would dread every step,
disconnect, never again poke at me; but sadly,
they attempt when they can; and bring all this past baggage to the forefront
gore, blood, and torn guts sprayed across my door but,
I tell 'em give me more, son. do it 'til you're emptied out
a lack of fear and letting go is my obsession now

-Verse one-Lady Essence
I roll it out, smoke it out,
Or hit the vape pipe
5 am late night
Riding til the day light
I hit the scenic route
Burnin on the meanest truth
Turning on the curb and I'm swerving that's why I lean to you
I'm Undefeated, unseated,
Fly the meanest coupe,
Nah I'm only kidding, catch me spitting on the meanest stoop,
Son I'm blunted, I'm keeping it one hundred,
I'm leaving these bums nothin,
Smoke weed til the Suns coming,
I feel it in my veins though,
Wheelin in my lane slow,
Revealing where the pain goes,
You don't want it, Don't get it,
I let the rain blow,
Watch me when I paint flows,
Colors like the rainbow,
I been higher, since they made my rent higher,
Now I use my pen fire,
To pay for this empire,
This one bedroom apartment,
Where I spark shit,
Write dope rhymes and let em call me an artist
Hook-Switch
My eye’s are dilated/ brains being invaded
Chill cause we faded/ Chill with the hatred
No reason to hate kid/ Don’t know what fame is
But want to be famous/ or at least taste it
-Verse two-Switch
I was about to smash it/ or smash shit
So bitch you better blast it/ that last hit
Forget about the past skit/ we’re passed it
So why’s this only half lit/ this grass spliff
Look it’s going canoeing/ don’t know what your doing
I have that moonshine brewing/ look I’m only human
Full of all the same fluid/ except I’m more fluent
Well I mean I’m more lucid/ so I don’t mind loosing
Clear mind I still shot cupid/ Weed and T.V that’s muted
Because this heart’s been wounded/ Mary jane I’ll consume it
Teach me and I’ll be the student/ one that’s not a nuisance
Laid back with this big sac/ saying this and that
Fade until it’s all black/ slaying the whole pack
Shade with this lonely track/ laying on my back
Made myself this snack/ staying in this shack
Blaze I have the grass/ waiting for that pass
-hook-
-Verse three-Notebook
step into the building and my presence and you can feel it
shit, my necklance ain't a million, but I bet my game'll kill 'em
never waste a second. illin' 'til I exit. give 'em chills and goosebumps
winter-coats can't protect ya' when it's frigid
giving frost-bite. swagger that could make your crew apartheid
do it all night. Runnin' it, no Pharcyde
ya'll hype and nothing more. this is what I call Life
steal your Spotlight. guess it's gonna' be a Dark (k)Night...
Christian Bale. Pin the tail on the donkey and wish him well
My existence is enough to cause a living Hell
Many fail to mimic what I can execute so easily
Made a career out of being me and it's freaking sweet
U MAD? Well, that's too bad.
Newsflash: Nobody gives a fuck about you, man
We blew past that new trash. They're looking like, "who's that?"
Learn some manners 'for you address me or get your cool snatched...

{Notebook}
stuck in my head and I can't get you out. what a nuisance.
really want to lose this constant hand on my mouth
when I try to be quiet and trap down these feelings that're brewing...
brew in my right hand. I'd rather be tipsy than witness you standing against me
in the past, it was iffy, but I can't go back and fix that so I'm drifting
downwards, on downers and bong-hits.
round of applause for this coward is not an option. the laughing stock of town is what I am
lying in my bed and rainy days is always the climate
lightning striking down for my mindless ways...
baby, why couldn't it be fixed? wouldn't it be insignificant how things were before?
I should burn for sure but, you holding on might hurt you more
let's turn the course, forget the bridge, and take a flight instead
fly into the sky. I pledge to do things right without the side effects..
of my selfish desires mixed into the pot,
I pledge to not follow trends, but confide my effort time and time again
and if you can't accept me pouring out to you, I understand
I'll walk away from your life and let us be nothing...
damn...
{Switch}
I think about you in my past time
Know I always think about the last time
Try to put the pieces together/ you said forever
Try to put the pieces together/ Now I know better
{Switch}
I was thinking the other day/ thinking what could I say
That could make things right/ take back all those fights
I was thinking it needs to rain/ wash away all this pain
Second chance in life/ swear I’ll do it right
Know that I’m scared inside/ deny have to much pride
Stand up no time to hide/ try to see the upside
Always seem to collide/ why can’t I just provide
Instead I’m just denied/ eye’s teary opened wide
Laying here over thinking things/ look what thinking brings
Sleepless nights starless skies/ stars in her eye’s
Saying I wish I was her king/ wish that was my ring
On her finger apologize/ so traumatized
I was thinking the other day/ thinking I caused this pain
How can I make it right/ when all we do is fight
I was thinking about that may/ when the sky turned grey
There wasn’t any light/ and you held me so tight
{Alex-Ander}
"Hold it tight" eventually means "let it go"
Nothing lasts forever, we should've never said hello
A moment to meet, eternity to say goodbye
"So a heart full of worry is the way I'll die"
Everything will be okay, someday, you got the potential to be alright
You and I didn't connect, you be you, and I'm gonna move on with my life
You said it in a sarcastic tone, you always knew you were better than me
But I guess opposites don't attract 'cause you're on a different level than me
So go ahead, sing your favourite hate songs and picture me
But keep in the back of your head I'm not the only guy with negativity
Maybe someday, I'll choose to be wise and finally go and take your advice
For now, I'll do what I do best and live with this mistake for a life

I can’t keep fighting these demons/ I’m not dreaming
I’m sick to my stomach/ sick I need to vomit
Take me away got my reasons/ and I’m freezing
It’s always a struggle/ with this empty wallet
With these fucking old clothes/ fades and big holes
No vacation I’m losing patience/ and no relations
Bloody from this red rose/ red rose black crows
This location my frustration/ no motivation
I’m falling from the seams/ just follow my screams
I’m breaking at my knees/ Hollow like my dreams
I’m falling from the seams/ just follow my screams
I’m taking what I need/ apollo let me bleed
Drain until I can’t see/ body numb and pain free
Hooked up to this I.V/ but I didn’t agree
To have these tubes in me/ injecting this morphine
Looks like it’s morphing me/ but please just mourn for me
Take me away from the puppet-string stage-crew
Suddenly before I am a cut-up winged angel
Love and faith made in a safe place
where the rain fades and the spirits get another great breakthrough
Hardships and November fog, mist, and dead leaves
Broken skull and I walk with it empty
Thoughts of a less greedy swamp filled with envy
Mornings are heavy for these zombies with red teeth
Sink through for a sweet taste
Kings rule with a mean face
They hate you in your sleep-state
evil's little weak slave
And I'm fiendin' to awake them all
Staying calm & creeping to erase the dark
Light a candle and strike the vandal
Detangle the Matrix and fight the battle..
