(I'm not alright) [Verse 1: Simple] You're not supposed to let the sun go down on beats So props to anyone who don't show teeth I'm here to borrow all the words that a photo speaks And if you listened you would know those things But listen, I'ma let you know what dodos think A six-legged brontosaurus with a coat all mink You try flipping up your collar, but your boat all sink You sitting in the bathtub, cold cuts, no blood to drink And I've been stuck and think about the past three days Last three things I did to steer me in the passing lane Most times it's just luck that leads me to success Most times it leaves me just as much stress So don't multiply your chance of defeat Pick your phone up and answer the ring Rolling up the ramp where Tantalus stands And the brink of getting the rock to the top So he stop just to celebrate the feat [Chorus: Iame] You probably never seen me this way These aren't things that normal people display I've lost a few days to this beast in my skull With no sleep and it shows I keep composure with a bigger dose I'm not alright You probably never seen me this way These aren't things that normal people display I've lost a few days to this beast in my skull With no sleep and it shows I keep composure with a bigger dose I'm not alright [Verse 2: Gold] Level-headed 'til my left brain's right Life's a chess game in one L-shape I'ma take what's mine Shadow jouster, I tightrope my high hopes fine You and I know the bouncer, but we're still in line Find your way through hell's gates from the one-way sign A trail of cellmates will stalemate time Sharpie my existence on the inside of your eye So you'll never forget the vision in which beauty lies "I'm ugly" a soul says to a two-way mirror And the only thing to fear is fear itself Unplug me off the wall 'cause doomsday's near All in all, I don't trust me when I need my help It must be (I'm not alright) [Verse 3: Iame] This has all the makings of a wreck Right down to the faulty wiring And all you firing off of the mouth Saying "help me out" All you firing your pieces Only Iame trying to find out where peace fits It's making me sick I'm not quite a drunken master More like a walking disaster Shadow-boxing assassin Shadow hills target practice Consist of me and bullet with my name on it The rest is history Ready for a bias spin on it I've been wanting to change But I'm too caught up in these things I'm just marking the days off this calendar Like I can't wait to get out of here Man, I can't wait (can't wait) [Chorus: Iame] You probably never seen me this way These aren't things that normal people display I've lost a few days to this beast in my skull With no sleep and it shows I keep composure with a bigger dose I'm not alright You probably never seen me this way These aren't things that normal people display I've lost a few days to this beast in my skull With no sleep and it shows I keep composure with a bigger dose I'm not alright [Verse 4: Mo-b] What you know about being afraid? We fall in line, apologise, 'til our souls are [...] Yo, the devil's got a [...], a crooked smile 'cause his better half ain't shown his face in quite a while What you know about a holy crusade? Just sit and die, while I wonder how the story could change Just sit and sigh, signified by a glorious case of passing time Yo, I've never felt the need to explain, just passing by Asking why your most high resides at a mountain top Yo I'd rather walk with god, seven trumpets to finale With a pitchfork [...] tugging at my sleeve Best believe there's more to the score than the ink and tally What you know about being afraid? I'm not alright What you know about being afraid? I'm not alright What you know about being afraid? I'm not alright
