Every Night
[Verse]
I wear a watch but I couldn't tell the time
I got small numbers in the bank
It's getting hard to pay the rent
I know my job applications are stacking up on they desks
But I'm in college right now so I ought to focus on that
Every night I write these bars for me to vent
I'm not even a rapper but I'm happy to pretend
Even if I put my all in these songs and this passion's so strong
Sometimes this little game I play turns into my scent
Even if I got a couple cents from my tracks
I still carry a lot of sense on my back
And I know this is a dead end street
But the light from the post seems to bе focused on me
I'm in love with thе moon cause she visit me every night
She shine bright like the sun and I'm her black wearing knight
My paper and my pen are my best friends that's why I write
Cause when I look up from the paper there's nobody in sight
I don't fear death, I fear not accomplishing my dreams
My ambition is my fuel or that's what it seems
I doubt if I am what I portray or what I would like to be
But I know what I am not and that's enough for me
You don't know my goals, you don't know the way I think
You don't even know yourself so pour another drink
I reminisce about the time I was down
But those times seem to be catching up to me I can't flee
Every night I write to keep away the bad dreams
I haven't had one since the day of my first release
But this album here, will keep me on my feet you'll see
I wrote this down in blood the veins in my arms are empty
[Outro]
Even if I put my all in these songs and this passion's so strong
Sometimes this little game I play turns into my scent
Even if I got a couple cents from my tracks
I still carry a lot of sense on my back
And I know this is a dead end street
But the light from the post seems to be focused on me
