[Intro] Sometimes I start thinking that everything is sinking And get the feeling that I'm on the brink an' [Hook] Theres nothing left to do or say Everything just falls away But still I lay here with a notebook so don't let it be mistook I'm just trying to send a new look, [Verse 1] But its shook, like a nervous crook, When he breaks a windows Cause he thinks nobody's look-ing But then the alarm rings and its over He'd know that if he's sober, but he's not so he just shrugs it over See I feel lower than that when reality snaps and falls like an avalanche So you call for help but nobody's around to hear your cries So you keep it inside, lie, and say you're fine But your friends are right outside, so you're reaching Running out of time cause they're leaving And it's all your fault you try to talk but they're shunnin' (shunning)
Free runnin', rooftop to rooftop don't stop or your shot, (Gunshot) Falling on the ground is not Enough to make you rot Cause you fought for what's left of the plot Connect dot to dot and who would've thought That you'd find a mine field But don't yield, don't conceal If they've got a problem with you than they can just deal But we're keepin it real and ima' keep going up till I hit the ceil-ing But then the alarm rings and it's over He jumps out the window rolls and lands on his shoulder Sirens wailing and they tell him to lower Himself to the ground, he turns around They've found him and then Dim lights hanging over my bed As rhymes swirl through my head But when it's all said... And done, they're just words that run from the inside- Wide eyes he looks around and realizes he's tied [Hook]
