Artist: Eyenine f/ Eyedea Album: Afraid to Dream Song: Cataract Vision Typed by: Hatt's Crib [Verse 1] Start ? the things that make you think about yourself Drop everything that's been a hassle to your mental health Watch carefully and then you'll see I bear an empty shell Carelessly you'll never see apparent calls for help What you believe so fluently that things can never change And you stupidly refuse to see the errors in your ways And I understand that ? plan it's thoroughly deranged But that doesn't mean that you should so scared to break away Well I wonder what's under the cover of darkness Counting the number ? Making an effort to realise all this suffering has to be making some progress Treasure the way ? those places, hated the way that you showed me those faces Breaking the balance of homeostasis, taking my talents and cover them basic Oh face it, well it's inevitable when it's set in the stone when I'm sending my soul Into the hell that I know that my rhetoric won't be ? I'm faceless, this error hasn't made a name because it's caseless I'm sick of all these wasted cases and their makeshift habitats I'll make sense out of rap and take this cataract and make your vision out of wack It's calling, I'm falling a little bit more every day ? running from reapers I wanna be whole ? places of dwelling Well I guess I know one thing about life, everybody said to me that death is suicide And I'm just trying to figure out if what I do is right So Eyedea, why don't you grab the mic and shed a little light? [Verse 2] Well the summer bleeds a foreshadow of what's to come and go, the ? blankets me Braces me, something sweet that I can taste You're my mother, I'm your morphine, let's go make a baby out of two guitars That heavy heart, I'll seem happy when you're looking smoking singing eating fucking One size fits angel coma, you're my favourite stranger And I won't hate you till I know you Somewhere between the garden and the grave I bypassed the machine, I wouldn't have felt its effects anyway Sentiment is the tramp that bored the special hollow Cram it in my ? and leaves a whole lot less to swallow Exercise your right to never buy what you can borrow Carve my sorrys in the sky and hope the sun hides them tomorrow Manufactured disaster, it seems I made my bed No one sees the burn holes until the sleeper wakes up dead Take my hands away, I'll pull the moon down with my wrists Making plans to fake safe is possible is dangerous [Verse 3] Writer's block just might have stopped this song from being finished Cause my mind was stopped from rhymes I've dropped from previous conditions So I listen to the words again envision things I would have said And crossed out many lines that didn't rhyme and left them all for dead I was trapped inside my head and I couldn't get out my pen from my back pocket Guess I lost it, so I wrote these words instead If you would just shut up enough for me to get my point across I'm sure this conflict could be solved without having substantial losses And when I see the rain is coming overhead I stay and function Back inside my mind I try to find the ways to make assumptions Taking something that's been written, mixing it down with high precision And making it sound all nice and vivid imagine it with my direction and vision And eloquence, the decadence, the medicine, the precedence The messages, the sentences, the evidence that I presented to win The reason to fight, the ? on their dream The secret to life, the reason to be, yeah that's all that's shown to me [Verse 4] Well every once in a blue moon I read your mind Heaven ended too soon and stole my pride and left me blind Exercise my morning shakes pretended I was born this way Wearing my Academy Award-winning performance face Snake shedding skin, it's all in my head again Life fetish led me to a dead end I said when but no one was listening Obviously cause they filled it to the brim and are spilling it all over me Crawl, crawl, crawl, crawl in this hole with me I'd fall on my face just to make sure that you notice me Your cold shoulder's always so sobering I'll be understood as long as I don't overthink Walking on thin ice, talking in the form of song Singing in the key of life, I'll lose my voice before too long Head came loose and they screwed it back together wrong Fire behind my eyes, desire died all night long
