Where did my passion go?
Hold in, now kill me slow
Pretend like I don't know
I don't know, I don't know
Just say I'm here to stay,
My thoughts been in the way
My thoughts been in the way
of everything I try to make

I tried to play the ruler with a heavy hand
Now it's over and I think I got a change of plans
Staying sobers only harder when I'm in the trance
Laying lower hoping that I'll never have to meet demands
Spending days in my room
Counting cracks up on the ceiling and I'm thinking I'm soon
And She says I'm acting different now I'm thinking it's true
I don't even bring the writtens out, just step in the booth, uh
Now every motion that I'm going through
Got no emotion I been searching for to hold on to
And I know I'm talking older news
But lately all I find myself is burned out when I talk to you
How'd it lead me this way?
Where I wrestle everyday with a pen and a page
Where I struggle to think on if I'm leaving a stage
or is it really my fate and I'm just living astray, yeah

Where did my passion go?
Hold in, now kill me slow
Pretend like I don't know
I don't know, I don't know
Just say I'm here to stay
My thoughts been in the way
My thoughts been in the way
Of everything I try to make

Got a beautiful girl but I been flirting with death
All this shit I fought to gain for respect, but I guess
It feels so hard to obtain, it's always easier said
I'm always looking for change but now it comes around less, uh
I guess I'm lost in the movement
It just took me off in lucid, now I'm chasing illusions
Been so focused on a deal forgot about the influence
And how I wanted you to heal when you feel all of the music
Somewhere along I guess I lost the path or strayed
I was writing a song and it was much beyond a page
Looking back on them high school days
Jotting raps, seems to me the ink is starting to fade
What makes me different than them?
All the people who had tried now forgetting to pen
All the people who had strived to create from the sin
But they just let it all die, to never touch it again, come on
