(( I am always being chased by the snakes
Chased by the snakes in my dream
When I am being chased by the snakes
Kinda feels like its reality ))
It feels like I'm running and i’m Picking up everything along the way
And It feels like, I’m gonna crash and burn, then I’m gonna pay
The ultimate price, the biggest sacrifice, That everyone needs
I feel like I’m drowning, its being torn away, From me, my sanity.
Nobody believes me, they say it’s all in my head
I’m suffocating, will I end up dead?
Is there a doctor in the audience who’ll listen to me?
Run a system check, plug me in to machines.
(( I am always being chased by the snakes
Chased by the snakes in my dream
When I am being chased by the snakes
Kinda feels like its reality ))
~~ I think I need pills, I need a shrink
It’s my life, don’t tell me what to think
Tell me why it’s all about you
embarrassed on an outdated taboo ~~
You treat me like a robot, expectation perfection
You tend to ignore my heart and my human complexion
You claim that it’s some sick joke and a form of rebellion
You fight me, while I fight myself, and this murky reflection
Deflection, deflection, this can’t be depression
That would mean you’re not perfect, and I can’t handle it
Rejection, rejection, oh, what’s the obsession?
If it’s not about me, then it’s all about you, is that your confession?
~~ I think I need pills, I need a shrink
It’s my life, don’t tell me what to think
Tell me why it’s all about you
embarrassed on an outdated taboo ~~
[ Heavy heavy, breathing breathing,
Is, this real am I dreaming?
Am I drowning, Who is Screaming?
Why, are the lights so gleaming?
Everybody staring at me
And, I don’t know what to do
Close my eyes just for a second
Cause, cause I just might lose ]
(( I am always being chased by the snakes

[ Heavy heavy, breathing breathing,
Is, this real am I dreaming?
Am I drowning, Who is Screaming?
Why, are the lights so gleaming?
Everybody staring at me
And, I don’t know what to do
Close my eyes just for a second
Cause, cause I just might lose
Losing losing losing, my grip
My, grip on reality
It starts to feel like suffocation
Am, i really breathing?
Logic logic, no more logic
I, can’t think straight any more
Is this blood rushing to my head
Or, more pounding on the door?
Just get a grip, just get your grip
It’s, all inside your brain
You’re doing this for attention
Is, what they’ll always say
I’m on to you, i’m on to you
And, and your silly game
I promise that i’m being good
An, xiety is to blame
Heavy heavy, breathing breathing,
Is, this real am I dreaming?
Am I drowning, Who is Screaming?
Why, are the lights so gleaming?
Everybody staring at me
And, I don’t know what to do
Close my eyes just for a second
Cause, cause I just might lose
Losing losing losing, my grip
My, grip on reality
It starts to feel like suffocation
Am, i really breathing?
Logic logic, no more logic
I, can’t think straight any more
Is this blood rushing to my head
Or, more pounding on the door?]
How I long, I long to be free
Free from my anxiety
No chains or restraints to hold on to me
I wanna live, I wanna breathe
How I dream, I dream to be free
From the nightmare named anxiety
The ruse my brain plays on me
I’ll fight you for eternity
I love this whole album: It just captures a wide range of experiences and affects the listener with a wide range of emotions.
I first liked this album because of the nerdcore elements, but I fell in love when I realized that these verses were true poetry, speaking to a deeper truth and beauty unlike most hip-hop I've heard. "A Poet" exemplifies this with its bittersweet message about how poetry is not valued. This is the first hip-hop tune I've ever shed a tear over.
Take a bow, Mega Ran. platinumazure
This album really captures the feel of the series. The hope that's hidden behind rage, fear, despair. You can sense all of it. EyeQ has a great support cast on this album as well, with none of the featured artists feeling out of place, they all feel as if they are strengthened by their placement here. Definitely glad I picked up a copy of this album as it was well worth twice the price I paid. Looking forward to more amazing things from EyeQ. smugzug
