{Hook}

So much on my mind I just can’t recline 

Blastin' holes in the night 'til she bled sunshine

Breathe in inhale vapors from bright stars that shine

Breathe out peace grows in my mind tonight

Heard the bass ride out like an ancient mating call

I can't take it all, I can feel the zen leaking

Chest heavin', against the flesh of the evenin'

The sigh before we die like the last train leavin

{Verse 1 - AlexandreTheGreat}

I tap into my inner essence, keep it kicking and gripping,

but I don’t fall out with the booth like MJ did with Scottie Pippen,

I’m mic tripping, I’m rap living, fact checking every step they take till my career is  nothing but check living,

So check it spitting hardcore rhymes like Wu Tang did best protect your neck

Before you lose your deck, I ain’t the one to project, cause I’m the one that’s the threat, 

It’s me and Wej and the careers we wreck. Like Ralph, I won’t stop still Im dripped in Lauren, 

but also moving like I’m Curtis when he finds his Lauren 

It’s a matter of time before the tables have turned and we reminisce from the papers we earned

I’m in my essence of peace, the sound check is my feast 

I wanna roll in ps, but also roll in peace, 

I manifest my destiny as you truly see gather up my energy meditate with the trees

{Hook}

So much on my mind I just can’t recline 

Blastin' holes in the night 'til she bled sunshine

Breathe in inhale vapors from bright stars that shine

Breathe out peace grows in my mind tonight

Heard the bass ride out like an ancient mating call

I can't take it all, I can feel the zen leaking

Chest heavin', against the flesh of the evenin'

The sigh before we die like the last train leavin

{Verse 2 - Jack Ganzo}

Glass smashing 

That’s what I’d force

If my thoughts allow me to pour out my defensive thorns

My stress scale increases drastically 

My problem is my demonic shoulder masters me 

Medically hidden in a self bettering factory

I’d take the help but I lash out lavishly 

Retract the hands reaching out to me and then blame it on my salary 

In full control yet asking ‘how could this happen to me’

Wish a shrug could stop it

Finding difficulty targeting a topic

What if I lived out a comic?

A short conclusion cus I’m giving up before I’ve even featured on it

Fuck the world is my ringtone, feeling powerless

Movie living and it isn’t glamorous

Can’t be zen cus meditation causes interruptions

My eye curtain made me think I can’t function 

Tryna walk elegantly but it’s just egg shells 

Beneath my feet, walking without a thought never ends well

Is realism something my mind can take 

Or will it hit me when I’m writing and I’m feeling fake 

Watch check to see what time I’m on 

The devil’s clock or a stomp to make me think I’ve flopped 

But that’s wrong cus I know immediate listens result in half cocks

{Hook}

So much on my mind I just can’t recline 

Blastin' holes in the night 'til she bled sunshine

Breathe in inhale vapors from bright stars that shine

Breathe out peace grows in my mind tonight

Heard the bass ride out like an ancient mating call

I can't take it all, I can feel the zen leaking

Chest heavin', against the flesh of the evenin'

The sigh before we die like the last train leavin

{Verse 3 - Awej}

Legs crossed head locked on pent up emotions

When love’s in a potion I send up to the Odin 

The trees breathe and we see them stuck in their motion

Never envious eat sleep repeat cos we need 

The belief to be boys like beastie and head spin like TT

I’m friendly on mps I bend beats I’m an mc 

I stand out a hand grenade in a mine field

I stand today A candidate in a cycle

Orange attire with the head shaved and in silence

Stopping to buy the next wave that I rely on

The x-rays gimmie the best ways to end pain

I stand cool with the drums like a sensei with a djembe

The zen way is my end game

I cleaned the mirror cos distortion is reality

Now I see it clearer

Mindful power is a bright sight to behold like the Eiffel Tower

Now I see it nearer

How are we in fear of perceptions of ourselves?

It takes over like injections of our wealth

Respect I haven’t felt til the LEDs were powered well

Maybe I still haven’t but I’m taking the wheel crashing

This a counselling session just in time 

For the battles in question tell me how has it lessened?

Since the frowns and the stressing to the wows and the head spins

I’m allowed to accept it’s a now or a never not a cloud or a wetter just a crown with your head up

This an alphabet stretcher the journey to the ancestors in heaven

That stand next to your friends and plans get to just ending 

Your trust seems to just dwindle plus dreams are a thimble

Away from dust needles in haystacks 

Until beats are in playback and silk sheets what your brain stays laying at 

Can’t vacate or forget I tame rhythms LA based like rain man

{Hook}

So much on my mind I just can’t recline 

Blastin' holes in the night 'til she bled sunshine

Breathe in inhale vapors from bright stars that shine

Breathe out peace grows in my mind tonight

Heard the bass ride out like an ancient mating call

I can't take it all, I can feel the zen leaking

Chest heavin', against the flesh of the evenin'

The sigh before we die like the last train leavin
