The Apex

I was on the corner with the basics
Drinking through the morning
'Til I'm sure that I could make it through the dayshift
Everything was sweet 'til I tasted
Life at its peaks no retreat so I faced it
Hoping I'd awake to see my family and maybe
If I make it through the night reunite in the matrix
Take a light make it shine through the hatred
The vines that we bind up our minds with are shapeless
The mindset's tasteless, bullshit society is faceless
Look into a mirror full of mazes
Our minds are infectеd with the crazes
Shopping for the latеst
The whole world's nothing but a spaceship
And we are all prisoners of conscience so face it
The end is so near I could turn 'round and chase it
Burnt out stapled to the truth can't erase it
Fables in a notebook struggle with the same threat
But are we ready for a break yet?
Running 'round hollow for a paycheck
Rather go wallow in a grave kept warm by the brave yet
Hangry in the same breath
Carbonise my print when I take steps

This is for the breakers and breaknecks
Lookin' to the sky when you're lookin' for your apex
Wondering if anything is ever really safe let's pray
It's not another freedom they take next

This is for the breakers and breaknecks
Lookin' to the sky when you're lookin' for your apex
Wondering if anything is ever really safe let's pray
It's not another freedom they take next

I take steps in this state vexed
Tripping on the androids at war with the bait heads
Manifesting in a corner store rain check
High life coming down quicker than a plane wreck
I am just a little more sane yet
Wilder with the cane stepping Vader get their frame checked
This is my pain and preordained stress I harness
And change into an art in a range less
Painful to obtain so it's painless
Governors retain debts
Crooks that I know are on the same flex
The looks a man gets when he takes steps
In his own shoes is a fuse that remains wet
I ain't tryna change the whole world man
I makeshift, just another glitch in the matrix
Just another brick in the window of your hatred
But all of us alive have gotta stand up and take it
Before I bow down I'll be taken
Trust me, this is not just entertainment
Or something that I do for the money that I'm making
I wrestle with the beast I am real life forsaken
I'm vacant, nothing here pretty it's adjacent
My name is a synonym for pain and sedation
I am short changed with the same dedication that I came with
But I stayed real to my strain so I claimed it
Took back my own and rearranged it
Stood up to the devil that I know before it faded
It faded I'm jaded and blaming all the same shit I'm chasing it's crazy
Before I bow down I'll be taken

This is for the breakers and breaknecks
Lookin' to the sky when you're lookin' for your apex
Wondering if anything is ever really safe let's pray
It's not another freedom they take next

This is for the breakers and breaknecks
Lookin' to the sky when you're lookin' for your apex
Wondering if anything is ever really safe let's pray
It's not another freedom they take next
