Being Sick
Feeling hot & cold at the same time
I never get sick! So I gotta ask why?!
Gotta headache & a runny nose
I have the chills & im fully clothed
This cough & cold sweats are keeping me up at night
Praying & hoping I don't lose this fight
I just knew something wasn't right
I kept coughing & didn't have an appetite
Stomach is growling but I don't wanna eat
I just wanna lay in the bed and turn up the heat
Taking short breaths & my heart is beating fast
Stomach is hurting & im hoping it's just gas
Got a nasty taste on my tongue
And this weird feeling in my lungs
When I coughed, a lil blood came outta my mouth
Time to get on Google & figure this out
Looked up my symptoms & couldn't believe it
Everything fell under pneumonia, then I said aw shit
This is serious! Could be fatal
Why did my symptoms fall under this label?!
Staring at the blood in the sink
Backtracking my steps & trying really hard to think
Ran a fever of 103
Gotta take some medicine & drink some hot tea
Hoping these meds turn this thing around
And that it brings my high temperature down
The Grim Reaper was waiting for me to go to sleep
But you were the angel in the room protecting me
I never get sick! So I gotta ask why?!
Gotta headache & a runny nose
I have the chills & im fully clothed
This cough & cold sweats are keeping me up at night
Praying & hoping I don't lose this fight

Stomach is growling but I don't wanna eat
I just wanna lay in the bed and turn up the heat
Taking short breaths & my heart is beating fast
Stomach is hurting & im hoping it's just gas
Got a nasty taste on my tongue
