nomo

[Chorus]
I ask myself why I am so tired
When I got eight hours of sleep yeah
Lost all motivation
When success is chasing me yeah

[Verse 1]
I dropped a pretty penny
They say the sea got plenty
I was busy chasing dreams like the fountain's empty
Then I got sidetracked
My youth caught in the the past
Cos all this time lapsed as "I was leaving my mark"
I guess there's negativity to this hope of mine
Putting S on my chest when the sun don't shine
(Don't let your dark-) days define
But the dark is sharing hues with these cloudy skies
Is this heightened pessimism?
Or just lack of magnesium?
Went from fighting inhibitions
To just feeling delirium
Got no motion to emotions
(Lockdown) Yeah I'm feeling numb
Like salt and pepper be my only seasoning
Feels like greater means only lead to lesser ends
The love that I bled that you bread to pretend
Keep these thoughts in my head? (might be detrimental)
Pen to the page, now I sing on instrumentals

[Chorus]
I ask myself why I am so tired (so tired)
When I got eight hours of sleep yeah (sleep)
Lost all motivation (ah-uh-uh-uh)
When success is chasing me yeah

[Verse 2]
Think I need a second
Rest my head for sixty
Now I'm daring to be squaring cos the weather's misty
Can't win a war like this
Crisis existential
Ponder outcomes of actions of low potential
And then I miss my moment (I'm pressing it) (Quick time events)
Like I wasn't chosen ("But in this life I'm blessed")
Wonder why I'm frozen (Stuck on what, where and how)
"Why am I to move?" (When my feet have failed me now)
The reality of the situation
Could it really be me adding complications?
I've got to fight myself just to figure out
Use my phone a friend when my foe is about
When the real me starts to wane
Can't be joking with the pain
Undermine what does frustrate
Or succumb to playing games
(Oh I)
Start to feel myself motivate
And until the dark nights return
I still got things I can't explain, so

[Outro]
I ask myself why I am so tired
When I got eight hours of sleep
