Work In Progress

[Verse 1]
I'm sittin' and listenin' to thoughts in my head
And I'm pickin' a livin', but now it's gone and it fled
Makin' songs, but instead feelin' off of the thread
I'm forgettin' 'bout gettin' my mind lost in my bed
And I'm off the top of my head
Thinkin' so many things that I'd forgotten I'd said
Rememberin' all of the better things that I had wanted
But lost in the palm of regret
And I'm calm, but upset
Lookin' out the window, seein' a life gone past me
Feelin' so off of it, lookin' so confident
When I hear the drop of a rap beat
Tryin' to make it to the top as an athlete
But it all comes to a stop when they ask me
"Are you okay?" Yeah
I just really don't know what to say when it has me
And life is a story of tragedy
'Cause, what is a war without casualties?
And what is the core of reality?
So many questions, what more than they're askin' me?
And what do I say in response?
Just another day in my thoughts
We got a whole world, but we stay in a box
Go pay your dues, don't be afraid of the cost
Yeah

[Chorus]
Lookin' out the window, seein' a life gone past me
I got everything to make me happy
And I'm starin' at the mirror
And I'll take it in right now, because the world is so much clearer to me
And I can feel your energy
From millions of miles away
And I'm sittin' in my room
And I'm just lookin' for somethin' to say

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And I've been sittin' in my room, I've been sittin' in my room
I'm just lookin' for somethin' to say

[Verse 2]
I'm tryna find somethin' to do with my life
I look at you, and I'm like
"Damn", I am ahead of my game
Do what I can to go get with the fame
And I'm still in the process
Feelin' I'm killin' it, really, I'm still makin' progress
In fact, I'm beginnin'
I'm spittin' my lyrics to get recognition and comments
Uh
Sometimes, it requires a lack of sleep
Researchin' for the track or beat
I just keep workin' when it matters least
And when it matters most, I gotta have the growth
I gotta go all out when I rap to show off
I gotta prove myself
Wanna inspire people? Gotta move yourself
Pursue the wealth
I'm gonna do this shit, and I'ma do it well
I've been through a hell, and now I'm movin' on
Got so many things to improve upon
I'm just tryin' to do what I can
I really don't care if I'm losin' a fan, I'm just usin' my plan
I'm pursuin' the glam, I'm removin' the spam
I really hope that you understand
Uh

[Chorus]
Lookin' out the window, seein' a life gone past me
I got everything to make me happy
And I'm starin' at the mirror
And I'll take it in right now, because the world is so much clearer to me
And I can feel your energy
From millions of miles away
And I'm sittin' in my room
And I'm just lookin' for somethin' to say

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And I've been sittin' in my room, I've been sittin' in my room
I'm just lookin' for somethin' to say
