GAMBOY - Keep Dreaming Lyrics

It's killing me, you're willingly drilling me
Still tilting the building I'm building till I collapse
But I'll come back, I'm willing to be real with things still
Cling to things from the past, holding on as long as I can

But I'll slip back in the cracks, as strong as I am, I'm just a man
I attract crap, somehow it seeps through the cracks
And I can't seem to relax, these are the facts
That breed us to crash, I need us to last

Collect the pieces, even from trash to wean us back
Now read this back, then reenact
And see if that's the end where you see us at
Don't leave in fact, if you don't believe

And we don't keep intact, I'll freak and snap
Let me achieve my dream, not right in weeks
It's bad, don't even laugh, if that's the way you're gonna treat me
Guess I'll leave, cause how am I supposed to achieve the dream

If you don't believe, guess I'll go and grieve
Get blown in the breeze, like the leaves in the fall
Climbing the tallest wall in my mind, then I leap and I fall
Just keep your jaw closed, I had raw hope

Let me alone to cope, like it's all dope
Nope, throw me a rope to get out of this pit I sit in
As I'm flipping, can't lift my chin or grin
Pissed with ripped wrists, sick as sick gets

And I keep slipping, it's slick from spitting
Tripping over my sin, sending me spinning
How do I get back to winning, in the beginning
Living like a king, I'd like to think this fight is idling

Despite the rings in our life ripening
Our future incites brightening
At least it was, till recently we reached the fuzz
Like cable went out before the preacher was able to announce

Who he was and what we've done
See the puns creeping up as I'm reaching up to the son
I only believe in one, and we've just begun
Our life lesson, already there's congestion

And oppression doesn't seem like love more like obsession
I got the impression, this will turn to aggression
Like an infection, it will mess with my head
Causing me to question every blessing

Instead of resting, I'm here confessing
This weird collection of memories
I feared were here to test me
Tearing me apart, wearing my heart on my sleeve

It's been here from the start, so I fear we'll depart
Clear the cart, ready to check out
Empty handed, been reprimanded
And damn it, I can't stand it like you planned it out

Down to the last strand, I ran out of rhymes or reasoning
Times for seasoning, my mind's appeasing me
With lines that leach on me
Eating me up inside, beating me till my mind's bleeding

From the inside out, the divine are reaching me
They try teaching me to keep allegiancy
To the one who seeks to reach through me
Speak to these creeps frequently

They really needed me, but she's not seeing or believing me
How am I supposed to achieve what I was made for
Been this way since day four
Been raining pain draining me way more

In ways I can't stay for
Need to change lanes, need I say more
These aren't the things I prayed for
Not what I paid for, or gave myself away for

Can't lay this way and stay awake
Shake away the way you take the cake and eat it too
Must break away, but I needed you
How can I shake at my knees and be a leader too

Can't lead when I speak the truth
And in return get treated rude
It seems to prove, I'm leaving you
Believe everything you see, but refuse to see the truth

I'm the proof, just needed time in the booth
My mind and the loops are the lines and the signs
To the youth the crimes are uncouth, designed to do
Only what time can do

Can't define the mood, the mood defines the spew
That is reaching you, keeping you speechless
Who knew you need it to
Reading through, this has got to be eating you

Shall we have a meeting too
Just so you know, I always believed in you
My speech is easing through the weaknesses I see in you
Keep breathing, this evening we'll see what's new

And see if we agree we're through
If not, then I was just teasing you
Keeping you speechless while I tweak the mood
It ain't meek, it's just bleak and crude

At peak it's food, at least I'm not
Streaking through the streets, freaking nude
Bleeding cheek to cheek from cheating
Getting beaten black and blue

Leaving me
Nah, I'm leaving you
