Endless hours spent that's how it went. The grind was worth it.
Knowing every now and then he found a gem described as *perfect*

lyrics

Lyrics:

I stay up late when it’s night to escape, most
Of these folks ain’t the type to relate though
I don’t really want a line of that yayo
But they insist every time that I say no
And when I drink, well I get a bit reckless
Liquor loves to get up in my head like a temptress
So I bike to the park where the bench is
Writin' rhymes in the dark cause I’m restless
Hear the breeze in the leaves as they’re rustlin'
And people on the street always fiendin' for somethin'
I'm pedalin' fast 'til I'm wheezin' and puffin'
Headin' down a dirt road, breathin' the dust in
Head rockin' to the beat and I'm hummin'
Livin' life on the eve of destruction
80 Proof booze and I'm eagerly chuggin'
But any sign of RCMP and I'm duckin'
I hate my phone but I need it to function
Ringers always off but I feel when its rumblin'
I'll hit you back in a minute, I chat then
I always leave ya hangin' in a similar fashion
Sorry but I'm just a loner, if you didn't know
Its probably cause I'm never I'm sober when I hit up shows
Most the time I chill at home, focused in a zone
Where I sit alone, so devoted to my little poems
Life is short, gotta stop and take a look around
And severe ties with the ones that wanna put you down
Fuck the rumours that they write on the walls
United we stand but divided we fall
Right now I'm like a monkey in a zoo exhibit
With a new fitted, actin' like a human in it
This is dedicated to the self-medicated
Feelin' lost in their life and never knew what they were doin' with it

Who's Up?
I been at it since the daylight fled
With my headphones glued to my brain-fried head
So, you can hit me with a late night text
If you ain't sayin' shit, I'm a save my breath

Who's Up?
I been at it since the daylight fled.
Just chillin' at the crib where I lay my head
So, you can hit me with a late night text
And I might hit you back if I ain't quite dead, yo

I was always told, start with a joke though
Everybody looks hard to approach, so
I'll break the ice and bum a dart when I'm solo
Sneakin' liquor into bars cause I'm so broke
Always tryin' to get a bang for my buck
But, when I'm paid I'm throwin' in change in your cup, cause
It's never easy when your down on your luck
And every penny counts when you're scroungin' it up
Been there, done that, fell into the mud flat
On my face and then I made another comeback
Life hits hard, never just a couple love taps
So you better toughen up and chuck a punch back
Every scars got a story for a friend
No guts, no glory, never sorry in the end
I'm a warrior that traded in my sword for a pen
Never use a Micheal Jordan just to warm up a bench
I'm wide awake cause the city never sleeps
All alone while I watch netflix and then I eat
So bored that I'm spinnin' in my seat
Guess I'll try again tomorrow when I rinse and then repeat
Life sucks but I love its great and I'm just lookin' for some others to hit up when its late
Cause, time flies but the brain wont stop
So I take another walk around the same old block
And If music was a drug and you could pop it or sniff it
Then I'd be lookin' at my phone goin' off every minute
They'd wanna holler and kick it, but I'd be locked in a room
With a bottle of Guinness and a palm full of shrooms
Awkward at life, I'm a nocturnal oddball
Lookin' at my phone like a doctor that's on call
This is dedicated to the ones that never made it
Everybody's devastated that you're gone for the long haul

Who's Up?
I been at it since the daylight fled
With my headphones glued to my brain-fried head
So, you can hit me with a late night text
If you ain't sayin' shit, I'm a save my breath

Who's Up?
I been at it since the daylight fled.
Just chillin' at the crib where I lay my head
So, you can hit me with a late night text
And I might hit you back if I ain't quite dead
