Hard to Sleep

There's hunger in my breath

I did much more for less

These dreams don't give me rest

My heart beats out my chest

I'm anxious with my thoughts

And patient with my steps

They act like it's a game

I'm placing all my bets

I don't call it quits

When it comes to giving up you should get a scholarship

I don't got a problem with it just gotta acknowledge it

Sometimes I even have a hard time facing all this shit

They got us running in circles

I've jumped all the hurdles

The doubts yeah I've heard those

Mistakes we've reversed those

Luck's universal

I'm swinging for the fences

Happy with first though

This life is full of angles

You're dead if you don't work those

I'm clocked in

Trying and failing then succeeding shit is top ten

I know sometimes it feels like there's no options

They got ways to bring you down you better watch them

It's hard to sleep when trying to live

There's hunger in my breath

I did much more for less

These dreams don't give me rest

My heart beats out my chest

I'm anxious with my thoughts

And patient with my steps

They act like it's a game

I'm placing all my bets

We're not at all that different

Tell me what you're gonna do with all that wishing

Running from your fears how you call that living

Tendencies of focusing on all that isn't

But what's the use in wasting it with all that's given

We all make mistakes yeah we all lack vision

But I can see the past I won't fall back in it

Running for my life

Hard to sleep when it's dark

In a tunnel there's a light

I don't do this for you

I don't do this for them

I do this for me

I'm just selfish I guess

Every verse that I write like a letter to a friend

Asking if they love me and they'll be there in the end
