Rest

(album: Kaizen - 2021)

I take my time to perfect the message
A man on a mission, plotting, sitting in the cut like an antiseptic
I take my time to embrace the blessings
We could've been locked up or dead returning to the essence
I'm in my realest form
Feeling like I've been reborn
Capitalize on what I want while expanding my catalog
My monetized emotions live forever in the record store
These melancholy tones are metronomes, close to Heaven's throne
Can't be scared to fall 'cause if you've never flown, you've never seen the top
Expanding my mind and broaden all the topics that I think about
I've been to places on this Earth, surfaces you read about
"The real will always live forever," legends lie on word of mouth
Trajectories can change or rearrange, we had to turn around
I'm going a million miles an hour moving at the speed of light
The bob and weave, the hype, avoiding that feast, they feeding on your life
To drain you of your energy, I said nah

Yo, suck my dick
I know it wasn't meant to be
Can't stop, we got to make it through the misery (keep going)
Laying low I just maintain
Hard times enough to make you go insane (yes, God)
I want for more than to just exist
To live forever through these records, not concerned with the flesh
Could suffer for a lifetime, that's my eternal test
Upon my last breath, I finally rest
I want for more than to just exist
To live forever through these records, not concerned with the flesh
Could suffer for a lifetime, that's my eternal test
Upon my last breath, I finally rest

I'm outta touch with reality, living inside an exhibit
The Truman Show, the lights'll glow, just know they all artificial
No, it was never 'bout the heart, not when the outcome is fiscal
Go in by a mile or inch, the margin's right in the middle
A silhouette above my head protect my spirit from evil
A lethal injection from needles, tapping in to my cerebrum
Re-adjusting how I move, consumed by what I consume
Reality is pure perspective so it's more on you
Hear the sirens like it's war, the battle's on, it ensues
The more you fight, the more you live
Survive and never give up
I pride myself on my persistence, never the type to play the victim
Never deferred from what I know, the word I feel I'd use irrational
Nowadays they ration their self respect for they record sales
First week projections and press runs with a [?]
Put a bow around the box and to the public they present it
On the backhand, you get a small percentage for your efforts
Remember, it's more 'bout who you know than what you doing
Outta sight, outta mind, your existence in recline
You'll find, it's all a game by the way it's designed
Where you can lose your life for even trying

Yo, suck my dick
I know it wasn't meant to be
Can't stop, we got to make it through the misery (keep going)
Laying low I just maintain
Hard times enough to make you go insane (yes, God)
I want for more than to just exist
To live forever through these records, not concerned with the flesh
Could suffer for a lifetime, that's my eternal test
Upon my last breath, I finally rest
I want for more than to just exist
To live forever through these records, not concerned with the flesh
Could suffer for a lifetime, that's my eternal test
Upon my last breath, I finally rest
