Don't Damage Yourself - Verb T

Feels like I can’t wake up, still I’ve gotta fight

Living out scenes from my nightmares horror-like

Quarantine, hobble 'cause I’ve got 'em weak

Stabbing at my veins trying to find what is wrong with me

Heart torn as I’m sitting in isolation

Fight is fading, energy dulled by the medication

Looking for inspiration, an impatient patient

Losing my lust for picture painting

When the facts are so ugly why frame it?

I try tame it, but undeniable pain and physical got me

Losing my conscience as I sit in the lobby distant and foggy

IV after IV blurred my thinking

A first then a second then a third opinion

But how am I supposed to take it in when I can barely say to him I feel shit

tryna regain my faith again?

Start to wake up, fight returns to me

Friends, loved ones and their kind words to me

It’s like a dodged a bullet and rehabilitated now I’ve gotta pay attention

No more living bacon, or in a way that is harmful

Gotta lead by example

To activate the positive energy it inflates love

No more hate struck, channel aggression and keep my face up

Slow down before you damage yourself

Why you love all the things that are bad for your health?

Gotta take care and manage it well

You ain’t indestructible with your arrogant self
