I can't sleep without drugs I toss and turn too much Bad dreams and such disrupt my peace So tired that I can't function Hallucinations chanting something Every line is louder every hour I think they have a message Reciting some passage Lighting the back of my eyelids With a match The muscles in neck get so tense That they crush my head and break the silence With my own screams of agony It happens more frequently, recently After years of remission Why the sudden resurrection? My cross to bear comes from nowhere With no warning And it'll chase me til they're over my casket mourning It wants to see how much I can take before I break And take my life to end the sleepless nights But I'm not the forfeiting type Can't fight the enemy inside me but I can bleed the motherfucker out And pass out
Carrying my cross inside me It drives me Heavy on my mind Cure it all with rhymes I'll be
As quickly as it hits me it leaves me Euphoria beyond description Like a heroin prescription I survived it again, but not without damages Whatever it is, it'll revive and get me again The question is when How quickly can I mend and recover Til I smother myself under the covers Keep the blood flow low to my head Explode and see red I'm going to bed Like a fish outta water So helpless kinda sorta like a Medical disorder Middle of school in the fourth quarter they took me out on a stretcher Popping my chest with electric shocks To keep my heart from stop beating Two hours later I'm alive and eating Still breathing Til the new pills kick in Knock me down so bad I'd rather have it out with death and win At leas
