It's five forty-three I was wondering, uh, what the latest is I wish I didn't use my friends as therapists I wish I didn't waste so much time being scared of it I wish my authenticity didn't get me embarrassed I wish I wasn't mocked by friends, teachers, and grandparents For every other thought and desire I wish they would admit that they had conspired To make me look like a liar So I don't have to take the heat for every time that they promised me water And then doused me in fire Call that a bait and a switch Just throw my hate in a ditch Or a grave or a pit Wherever my body lands, so that I can stay with it And it'll stay with me, locked inside of my bones The ones I wish I'd never jumped when nobody was home Man I wish I wasn't proud of my inevitability I wish that I could say what's been killing me I wish the family name wasn't held as a responsibility I wish that she was into me physically Not just for the laughs and the good conversation Being funny's great till you got no one to hang with So now I'm hoping and I'm praying that somebody understands What it's like to have acquaintances who all have friends Man I hope that I can pay my dad back For every semester that I threw in the trash After I had moved the tassel that was on my grad cap When I was wishing they would diss me so that I could clap back I wonder if they'll miss me when I'm dead and gone Who should I give the rights to for all these second-rate songs? Third kid, Golden Child, should have gotten it right I'm just tryna survive, but I should be living for the light, yeah Broke out the chamber but I'm still hearing the echoes No catch me in the shadows holding on when I should let go Can't wait to say "good morning" but I never say "good night" Sign off with "peace" but I never stand and fight, no It's oxymoronic, I'm tryna move on it It's parasitic, bubonic, I might just die to resolve it But we scrapped that album, so I suppose I should keep living But I don't want this life of sleeping, working, and sinning If the Lord don't forgive me, I'm a still try my best But what is my "best" when I can never get some rest? No the rest of me is in shambles, like I'm walking in a bramble And I can't heal myself with a pen or a piano, nah Trust me I've tried, on the sea catching rides It comes and goes in waves, SHM on the tides And I'd adjust the sails, but I'm trapped in all these currents I keep fighting the urge to light it all up and burn it If I'm already breaking down, what more could I lose? I guess my hope, I suppose my fuse, yeah I'm sorry, you really weren't meant to see this No, I don't know how to redeem this
