about

I was sad when I wrote this, really sad. But I feel empowered when I listen to it, really empowered.

lyrics

This is my ego death
Will I ever be under the public eye and scrutinized
Will they cast me away and crucify me for my past decisions
Or put me to death and euthanize my mind
Cause they had only seen it as suit for lies
And mutiny, and rebellious thoughts, I'm too benign
They'll probably cover it up and call it a suicide

This is my ego death
I told you this is my ego death
This is my ego death

What would you think of me if I told you I needed weed
To complete me
It's numbing like it's morphine
And of course I've sniffed the tranquilizers for the horsies
I think it's finally time to divorce these ideations in my head
What would you think of me if I told you I'd rather be dead
What would you think of me if I told you I think I'm a coward
And even though I'm empowered
I'm really fucking scared
Cause all the people in power are really fucking dead
They spirits is nonexistent
They soul is in a shed
Locked away, it ain't been fed
And even when the doctor say to me get out my head
And live present in the environment
I'll still tend to tread
Back into these shallow waters from which I swam
Since before there was ever a man to walk the land
Since before the heavens was in the skies
They was underwater, and the darkness led
Shit, before the concept of time began
I'm not ya man if you can't stop and stand
When you hear me spit these bars
We splitting like Ibaka, man
I had to carry em away
Far to the hill, son
I got the power surge to charge em up
So I can heal one
Of these motherfuckers tryna drain up my energy
Willing to supply life to those who which are killing me
Understanding karma and the light I have to give away
Knowing that my ego dies to reincarnate anyway
Shit

This is my ego death
I told you this is my ego death
I don't give a fuck what happens from here on out
I could give a motherfuck about some clout
This is my ego death

This is my ego death
I told you this is my ego death
I don't give a fuck what happens from here on out
I could give a motherfuck about some clout
This is my ego death

This is my ego death
This is my ego death
This is my ego death
This is my ego death
This is my ego death
