Reality Check

Losing track of who I am and who I wanna be Don't deserve any success, I'm just a wannabe The only checks that I'ma get are from rеality Teetering on the edgе of my own mortality Gray hairs growing in, and I'm only eighteen Slowly falling apart, like an overworked machine I'm chasing after some hopes that have already been dashed So I grasp the aftertaste from a time already passed And pretend that it's good enough, I pretend that I'm good enough That any of the shit that I make is fuckin' good enough My memory is hazy, am I depressed or lazy? Even though I don't like it, I think I'll always hate me I'm not allowed to make any mistakes Lose track of who I am, but I just can't hit the brakes Reorient myself until I'm on the way to being great Swamped by expectations, like I'm sinking in the Everglades People say I'm fire now, guess that's why I'm burning out Started doubting my bounds and now I'm down for the count And the box that I got out of's back to closing around me Hyperventilating, losing the air that surrounds me, yeah Losing track of who I am and who I wanna be Don't deserve any success, I'm just a wannabe The only checks that I'ma get are from reality Teetering on the edge of my own mortality I threw a project together in the span of three weeks A way of venting out my feelings that I don't wish to repeat I wrote over some Bill and Rav beats, and I wrote them all for me I didn't think about an audience who'd play it on repeat Huh, shit... bars are weak, just like my confidence I'm connecting my self esteem to my lyrical competence I'm tryna be too perfect, something that I can't achieve I start to worry now that I've lost my chance to grieve Like I did on that Christmas Eve, and then for those five months after Dreaming of a day where I could once again hear her laughter Forty minutes on the clock, hopin' to feel her embrace I can't see her anymore, but I still feel the side of her face I always search for something so that she can be replaced But those ghosts always end up filling that empty space I keep on breathing, almost as if just to spite her But if I don't feel alive, am I really a survivor? Losing track of who I am and who I wanna be Don't deserve any success, I'm just a wannabe The only checks that I'ma get are from reality Teetering on the edge of my own mortality
