trapped

fuck dude, its been one hell of a ride
caught my self thinkin bout what would happen if I died
I put this shit down on paper to try and rearrange it
tryna make some sense out these thoughts, tryna exchange it
I hate when you put your faith and trust into something
and then it totally lets you down
I'm not very hopeful, I'm expecting worse for next time around
its the same old shit, the ups and the downs
spin in enough circles, end up on the ground
tired of waiting for the next catastrophe
all that karma is just gonna come back to me
sick of wondering "when will it all end?"
it's gone on for too long, gonna be too hard to mend
this lifestyle is addictive, don't know what I got myself into
wish I could turn back time and get out before it became an issue
now I'm trapped, no way out
this life is hell, without a doubt
tryna show them what I'm about
tryna gain more than what I'm without
but how you gonna add if you can't count?
can't jump from the bottom straight to the top
gotta move slow, up one notch
can't start running til you learn to walk.
wanna be an icon, come on, get with it
wanna live a life that's idealistic
don't know if that'll happen, gotta be realistic
waiting on a miracle that'll never come
this game is work, not all fun
every time I try and focus on myself,
I get caught up in the drama of someone else
whenever shit is going good and I think i can relax
something happens and i get stabbed in the back.
