Dunno about this one...I loved the beat so I just spit something real quick. I guess its about things not being how they first appear
Been making music since late 2005, been doing a lot of the positive vibed stuff lately, things that I feel are actually worth talking about
Lyrics
I guess that nothings what it seems
Looks like I’m living a dream
Time to wake up, and see what I’m seeing
This is me and now I’m ready to leave
Trapped in this masquerade, I’ve packed for days
And I’m saying my goodbye’s you’re last to say it
I shoulda known better than to let a little something
Like you step in my direction fool me but its better than nothing
Bet a couple dollars that I’ll never make it off
The underside of whats right, sound of the cough
Just a symbol that I’m not alright
Just a quick reminder that I’ll need a blanket tonight
Everybodys happy till they come to their senses
Then they realize whats up and hop off the fence
And that’s it…the moment I’ve been fearing
All these years that Ive been wearing masks to cover my face
I’ll admit it in the past I might have made some mistakes
But in a race that doesn’t get you even close to first place
I guess that nothings what it would seem
We’re all a little lost I’m taking one for the team
I guess that nothings what it seems
Looks like I’m living a dream
Time to wake up, and see what I’m seeing
This is me and now I’m ready to leave
Reminiscing on the pictures posted up on the wall
One room, one hall just to trigger it all
I know that every day is different and its all for the best
Nobody’s perfect but at least we try to stick with the rest
Livin a lie for a while, that’s the way of the world
The words are only substitution for the lessons we learn
And I guess it’s more than I could have hoped
I can’t complain too much, life’s been good for the most
It’s the little things I do that seem to mess things up
The little details that don’t wanna let me up
Help me up wipe the slate and see the things ive been missing
From obstruction to my vision to the people I’ve missed
Ive taken risks, but I mostly play it safe
In all the facets of life, I never cheat in the race
I play the part of underdog till I regain my position
I’ll be the victor all this time here I’ve been playing the victim
I guess that nothings what it seems
Looks like I’m living a dream
Time to wake up, and see what I’m seeing
This is me and now I’m ready to leave
Nothings how it appears
From your friends to your peers
Double take every step that you make
Because nobody likes to make a mistake
So many years gone by So many tears gone dry
But I wont stop searching till ive broken my eyes
But its hard to search
When everything you knew has been flipped for the worse
Everything that you told me, I took it for fact
Now I’ll retract my steps, take it back to back
Cuz everything you said was fake, a masquerade
You’re playing games with me but I cant keep playin
I guess that nothings what it seems
Looks like I’m living a dream
Time to wake up, and see what I’m seeing
This is me and now I’m ready to leave
