Cloud 9 Lyrics by Michael Kraun

Downtime

2019

[Chorus: AWAL]
When I'm feeling low
I fill up my cup
Till it overflows
And I fight my demons
When I win I’ll know
Hopefulness is all I need to let it go
Now I’m losing my mind this time
Trying to focus on my life
Take back what’s mine
Look ahead until I reach the finish line
‘Cause my dreams the only thing that’s on my mind

[Verse 1: Michael Kraun]
Too many shows, not enough good shit to watch
Too many assholes not enough good people - stop
All this madness I can’t handle, it’s like this planet forgot
Human race turned into animals, now this planet will rot
But my hands in my pockets
No cameras in my optics, please
Cautiously, my thoughts are deep
I can’t manage a conversation, so don’t talk to me
Unless you wanna hear me rant about the thought police
Your talk is cheap
Be honest, between y’all and me
These characters bout to make you lose it all for one tweet?
Like poof, man, there’s goes your business
When did freedom of speech become so expensive?
Sell your soul for a mention, but we don’t mention it
Corporations need your buzz to feed off your relevance
Ain’t no need to question why I’m overzealous with it
We’re an offensive generation that gets so offended, I mean

[Chorus: AWAL]
When I'm feeling low
I fill up my cup
Till it overflows
And I fight my demons
When I win I’ll know
Hopefulness is all I need to let it go
Now I’m losing my mind this time
Trying to focus on my life
Take back what’s mine
Look ahead until I reach the finish line
‘Cause my dreams the only thing that’s on my mind

[Verse 2: Michael Kraun]
Young kid from the borough, my mind buried in rhymes
I’m an underground king who was buried alive
On a journey for mine, keep it thorough in any era
This one or the next one, my mission I never question
I slide through with haikus, lyrical swine flu
In front of a mirror, it takes a miracle to find you
Behind the visions of villains who once denied you
And misidentified you, who ridiculed and shit on you
Cause you did things they wished they‘d do
If they ever had the wherewithal to try to
Hence why they try you
Got you thinking how you ever let that shit define you
Got you thinking if you put your mind to it
Yeah, you might do it
Ain’t no limit when ambition is inside your chest
And yes, let me remind you
Ain’t no ceiling you can’t shatter
And if your passion is your ladder
Ain’t no height you can’t climb to

[Chorus: AWAL]
When I'm feeling low
I fill up my cup
Till it overflows
And I fight my demons
When I win I’ll know
Hopefulness is all I need to let it go
Now I’m losing my mind this time
Trying to focus on my life
Take back what’s mine
Look ahead until I reach the finish line
‘Cause my dreams the only thing that’s on my mind

[Bridge: Michael Kraun & AWAL]
I don’t want your negativity
Thinking about me
I’m stress free
All I really want is positivity
Moving on I’m doing it for me

[Chorus]
When I'm feeling low
I fill up my cup
Till it overflows
And I fight my demons
When I win I’ll know
Hopefulness is all I need to let it go
Now I’m losing my mind this time
Trying to focus on my life
Take back what’s mine
Look ahead until I reach the finish line
‘Cause my dreams the only thing that’s on my mind
