humility

atlas

it's getting harder to practice humility

due time comes popularity spikes

and i confuse my lungs

'cause the air in my life is too pure

i'm done tryna carry the sights that i see

through aerial flights on the path to

the future where my head space lacks

but my tattoo's show

clearly that my skin is too thick

to be punctured by any toothpick

you flick at me

my mind has a shattered screen

that plays scary movies

the classic scenes

like a psycho bathroom slasher scene

and shows

digital previews of magazines and i

cannot seem to relax anymore

always stressed out

ideas fleshed out

my regrets drowned

and i am an accomplice

still i don't ever feel accomplished

i buy ikea furniture 'cause finishing assembly

makes me feel like i accomplished something

other than whimpering in silence

when the eerie atmosphere of night can get to me

and make me wish that i were still in infancy

i buy ikea furniture 'cause finishing assembly

makes me feel like i accomplished something

other than whimpering in silence

when the eerie atmosphere of night can get to me

and make me wish i still had my humility

it's killing me

it's getting easier to practice humility

new lines come to my mind when writing

i don't just strike twice

i ride the lighting

and drop compliments on the eyes of my kin

to show that my love is infinity

and i'm done with inventing these ugly obscenities

replace the hate with

hugs from the kid in me

and shine till it looks like the sun tried to fit in me

something is interesting about me right?

it's appreciation of art

no

it's how he writes

it's all this

this love

these beautiful words

that i cannot seem to produce when the music is curbed

so this isn't rap

it's not hip-hop

not poetry

it's just me trying to express how explosively

i react

with these cats

in my life

frequently

so

thank you for existing

i'll be here if you're needing me
