Stump - Smokescreen Lyrics

Stump

Yea

Back once again

Listen up

Listen up yea

Yo

Woah
Just tryna get my head level
Just tryna get a drink or several
Just tryna get rid of devil
Just tryna put foot on pedal
And ride the f*ck out of here

Shed a tear for the loved ones
And lost one
Trying to realise what's gone
Swear my mind a ticking time bomb
Thing is
Am I wrong

Million dollar question
Beckons
So work on recollection
All these drugged up dogs detecting
What doesn't need a mention
Let alone a sentence
Can you see me through your lenses
2020

Swear we all on a mission
Some known
Some aren't
Some close
Some far
Don't bark
I plead
If you plan to succeed with greed
You're planting a seed called failure

Not much more I can tell you
Abused from the truth that looms on your shoulder
Try to hold composure
Please don't say I told you so
Feeling low
Feeling slow
Don't know how to cope
Caught up in the ropes
So I blow smoke to ease the pain
Thing is the same smoke makes me feel insane

Open your eyes
The fear and the lies
That lay in my mind
Exercise the right
To make me feel alright
Cos when times getting messy
Got to clean it up with wipes

Packing on the weight still tight with my rhyming
Got a lot of battles I be fighting
Now I'm realising
I'm barely on time and
Really just finding my paces

No familiar faces in these crowds I be facing
Yet every single time my heart beat still be racing
From the dreams that I chasing
Seem out of reach
So I leap for what's embracing
These moments in the making

You can bet my hands are shaking
Scared of what's ahead
Just got to tell myself that it's all in my head
And if I want to be the best
Then I'm going to be the worst
Cos all is a cycle like our times that spent on earth

Not much more I can tell you
Abused from the truth that looms on your shoulder
Try to hold composure
Please don't say I told you so
Feeling low
Feeling slow
Don't know how to cope
Caught up in the ropes
So I blow smoke to ease the pain
Thing is the same smoke makes me feel insane
