Wide Eyed from Ruptured by NahBo

Chorus:
Earth centre me
Bent by the breeze
Tears down my cheeks
The water in me
Becoming steam
You won’t believe
We find our peace
In the rivers

V1:
Start walking, no more talking
Not even goodbye
I nearly died
Eyes lock down the street
I’m frozen where I stand
Quick, turn. Don’t run.
No one understands
I’ve got a past like a Pink Batt
Always on my back
Memories close by when I react
I’ve lost track of the context
What is coming next
Will I mess with the rhyme scheme
The timing, vibing, chime in
Fine dining
Coat my throat with the spirits
Aitu in me push me to spin it, admit it
Thought that I was smart
Thought I knew enough
Thought I was so tough (haha)
Learning never ends
You have gotta work
Even if it hurts (hahaha)

V2:
I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired
Sick of acting like I am required
Sick of all these selfish men who expect to be admired
Talking so much shit and saying nothing
How inspired
I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired
Sick of being told what to desire
Sick of being stuck in a rut
It is dire
Sick of feeling like my fucking mind is on fire
