music in my head

What am I doing
Sitting alone in this room for hours
Lost in thought playing my keyboard
I’m not really even a musician am I now?
I just hear music in my head
They’re an embodiment of my soul
And I need to get them down before I go insane
Or maybe I’m already insane
The truth is I’m just sad all the time
Been like this for a while now
Sometimes I feel nothing at all
I often wonder what the meaning of life is
What is existence, what is consciousness
And is the absence of it really so terrible
What would oblivion feel like
I think it would feel great
The weather outside is gloomy
The rain is communicating my feelings
I smile in photos because I feel obliged to
I’m seeing all sorts of hues
Used to threaten to kill myself when I got angry
My parents thought I was an angsty kid just joking
Learned too many sinful things from tv
Mimicking what I was seeing in the movies
But I have always had something strange living deep inside
I don’t feel alright
Every passing moment doesn’t feel real
I’m at a standstill
Can you give me a hand and help me heal
Can I get a second chance at life
I wanna start over and do it right this time
My future is looking bleak
Losing hope I’m feeling weak
Wind chimes, water falls
I’m running in circles till I fall
I spend my nights lying awake
Wondering what would happen if I died today
Wind chimes, water falls
I’m running in circles till I fall
I spend my nights lying awake
Wondering what would happen if I died today
A routine is the only thing keeping me sane
I have a tendency to overthink about life it’s just a game
Gotta get down everything I wanna say
In case it's the first and last album that I make
Sometimes I watch too many pornographic videos to fill up that void of human connection I so crave
I’m really a nasty piece of work it’s probably best to stay away
I think rappers are modern philosophers
My soul must be corrupted by none other than Lucifer
Mac Miller said it best, the world don’t give a fuck about your loneliness
All my heroes are gone so I don’t know what else to do then just rest
And hope for the best I guess
Wind chimes, water falls
I’m running in circles till I fall
I spend my nights lying awake
Wondering what would happen if I died today
Wind chimes, water falls
I’m running in circles till I fall
I spend my nights lying awake
Wondering what would happen if I died today
So what are you waiting for
I asked you what are you waiting for
Pull the trigger and send me
To
Oblivion

confession

This song is my confession
Lately feeling down has been my obsession
They say life is supposed to teach you some lessons
But all I got is suppressed aggression
Always feeling sad is this depression
I don’t wanna admit I got a problem
Confession
Watching Friends and laughing to more than the laugh track
Drinking cough syrup to relax
I’ll probably die young from an heart attack from all this stress I have
That’s a fact
Train pulling in better step back
Gotta stop myself from jumping onto the tracks
I’m a deranged motherfucker with one too many death wish on a quest to get rich
These days are short and nights are long
I spend all my time writing sad songs
Running this never ending marathon I wonder when the finish line will come along
Been experiencing suicidal tendencies since I was a preteen
Life is a haze I can’t face without my daily intake of caffeine
Am I human or just a machine
Used to wanna be a superhero but now I can’t even save myself
I fantasize about death way too many times a day to be considered sane
These visions in my head keep me entertained
I got lots of friends but they’re more like acquaintances
Please let me finish my sentences
You spend your weekends curled up on the couch watching TV
When you could be living your life but fuck reality
And happiness is something that can’t be measured
Maybe they lied when they said it’ll get better
This song is my confession
Lately feeling down has been my obsession
They say life is supposed to teach you some lessons
But all I got is suppressed aggression
Always feeling sad is this depression
I don’t wanna admit I got a problem
Confession
Loneliness is now a norm it’s not an option
I wonder if they love me or if its for their own conscience
The angels have flew away now there’s no one watching me
Used to believe in God but now I’m not so sure of my sanity
Still I pray to him every night hoping I won’t see the next sunrise
Got too many doubts they’re keeping me confined
All my heroes have died so I guess it’s also my time
Please plug me in the matrix and play out my fantasies
As I get older I realize Madara was right (Fuck you Naruto)
I mean what we think is real is what’s perceived by our minds
How do you know we’re not already in a simulation
Spending every waking hour hallucinating
The past haunts me like a broken record
Wonder if I’ll ever get to see the bigger picture
Numb my pain as I go to sleep
And wake me up once we’ve reached my dreams
This song is my confession
Lately feeling down has been my obsession
They say life is supposed to teach you some lessons
But all I got is suppressed aggression
Always feeling sad is this depression
I don’t wanna admit I got a problem

i am holy ramen

Let's go
I was born from the ashes
In the darkest moment of despair
My story is kind of tragic
But please don’t fret or shed a tear
My name contradicts my identity
I am anything but holy
Didn’t even know rap was in my skillset
But it came to me like a muscle memory
The rhymes I’m spitting are damn intricate
They come from the core of my being
My soul’s kind of fragile and delicate
But I ain’t afraid of bleeding
Not just any alter ego in the long list of names
I will dominate, I will dominate
Do you think that I’m insane
The name’s Ramen
Holy Ramen
I stay slurping
The name’s Ramen
Holy Ramen
I am Holy Ramen
I’m obsessed with finding an outlet for all my unrighteous thoughts
I’m obsessed with getting attention
Do you love me, do you love me
You really should not
I eat some type of noodle every day
I stay true to my nature all the way
Sometimes I like to rap slow
And in other times fast
You got a problem with that
I ain’t tryna conform to any norm
Not about topping charts or being loved by the mass
Imma do my own thing till y’all feel my wrath
Bidding time, planting seeds, forging my own path
The name’s Ramen
Holy Ramen
I stay slurping
The name’s Ramen
Holy Ramen
I am Holy Ramen
Don’t call me KZ if you ain’t my homie
That name’s reserved for the ones that know me
Can’t be my friend if you ain’t a bit crazy
I’ve always wanted to visit Italy
They got spaghetti there that I really like
I don’t discriminate against noodle types
Bout to rap away all of my soul and sanity
Buckle up or you’ll be my next casualty
Engrave my name with ancient calligraphy
I am the fulfilment of the next great prophecy
Look in the mirror who am I
Became something new, hellish divine
The name’s Ramen
Holy Ramen
I stay slurping
The name’s Ramen
Holy Ramen
I am Holy Ramen

possessed

I think that I'm a ticking bomb
Just seconds away from blowing up
Allowed the darkness to consume me
Can't recognize the person that I've become
Sold my soul to the devil to bring some peace
One way ticket to hell but that's just what I need
Put it all on this bet to set me free
If I fail well off the bridge I leap
I'm all about leaving a legacy
Whether good or bad that don't matter
Think I lost my moral compass in this chatter
But how would you know I'm just an actor playing my own character
This movie be winning an Oscar
I keep pretending that I'm a doctor
Trying to cure my own illness
An excuse for my false sense of brilliance
Think I may be a little delusional
But the fuck do you know
Imma be my own hero when the clock strikes zero
I'll be the only one left standing that's a promise
Aren't you a little astonished at how calm I am in this times of crisis
Well that's cause in desperate times comes a monster and it'll haunt ya
I made a deal with her
To be my saviour
To make the world repent for all that it has made me suffer
Corruption
Destruction
This anger is clouding my vision
Slipping into something inhumanly
Driving into endless bouts of lunacy
Corruption
Destruction
This anger is clouding my vision
Slipping into something inhumanly
Driving into endless bouts of lunacy
It's me that you should be thanking
I killed that bitch cause she was weak
She would've stopped you from living and breathing
You're still alive because of me
The world is harsh so you better get cold
Don't need no heart don't need no soul
I can give you all the power that you crave
Show 'em who's boss you're nobody's slave
Cut the ties they just get in the way
It's time that you accept your fate
Don't you feel the rage building inside
Feed on it it'll help you survive
Stop being so naive
They don't love you can't you see
Let go of your stupid beliefs
I'm the one that'll bring you your dreams
I made a deal with you
To be your saviour
To make the world repent for all that it has made you suffer
Corruption
Destruction
This anger is clouding my vision
Slipping into something inhumanly
Driving into endless bouts of lunacy
Corruption
Destruction
This anger is clouding my vision
Slipping into something inhumanly
Driving into endless bouts of lunacy

crush
03:34
|

Your love is all that I'm wishing
I picture you on top of me lips pressed together kissing
I wonder how you look with your clothes off
How does it feel to touch you is your skin soft
Lately, I can't get you out of my head
And I'm feeling something I don't really understand
Got an infatuation I'm addicted
You're my drug
You keep me high
You keep me faded
I don't wanna say that I'm obsessed
But I'm always picturing you all undressed
And when we finally fuck it'll be more than sex
Two souls intertwined isn't that the best
So how bout we lay down on this bed together
All day all night this shit will last forever
I'll be your world and you'll be mine
And together we will never ever run out of time
I wanna know what your lips taste like
Is it sweet like cherry pie
I don't know if this is love or lust
I think I have a crush
Oh I'm mesmerized by your beauty
Made in god's image you are truly a wonder
Don't wanna be subtle about it can I get your number
Around you, it's always summer
Forget the rest they don't compare
You don't gotta worry I ain't going anywhere
Stop denying our attraction
You know that I can give you all the satisfaction
Used to make you laugh
Used to make you smile
Now I wanna make you scream my name in the middle of the night
It'll be our new lifestyle
I'll be your dream I'll be your ecstasy
And you'll be the key to setting my soul free
And maybe one day we can get married or some shit like that
But for now, I just want your body on me
I wanna know what your lips taste like
Is it sweet like cherry pie
I don't know if this is love or lust
I think I have a crush

vanity

Eyes red bloodshot living in a fantasy
Slowly losing the grip of reality
Scrolling over the same feed repeatedly till we’re forced to go to sleep
It’s all just a number’s game at this point
Starting to worth more than the coin
Brand names cover up my insecurities
Can’t afford a condo but can sure afford some Gucci
These likes determine my self-confidence
Bring em in I need that shot of dopamine
More addictive than methamphetamine
But we in denial
Avoiding warnings from the professionals
There ain’t nothing social about this anymore
Individual brands tryna determine their worth
Online persona you stole my friend’s face
But wait aren’t I just doing the same
We all obsessed with the vanity of things
The vanity of things
The vanity of things
Look at my diamond ring
We all obsessed with the vanity of things
The vanity of things
The vanity of things
What does it really mean to be living
Tryna log off but I’m unable to
Another couple thousand dollars spent on designer shoes
Hide my flaws behind some ink and powder
It ain’t self-love no more if it’s taking away my power
And Black Mirror tried to warn us
But we just take it in for entertainment purposes
Do you feel the nervousness
When people don’t give you the notices that you would like
Since when did we all become narcissists
And I fear for my mental health all the time
I wish I could just move to the mountains
Peace out goodbye
But problems gotta be dealt with not just ran away from
Is there hope left for the future our kids will grow up in
Maybe I’m just a pessimist
Speaking from my own guilt acting as my own therapist
I’m tripping
But it gotta be a problem if I’m not the only one feeling it
We all obsessed with the vanity of things
The vanity of things
The vanity of things
Look at my diamond ring
We all obsessed with the vanity of things
The vanity of things
The vanity of things
What does it really mean to be living
Bout to drop some truth bombs
So y'all better listen up
Let's go
North American culture
Obsessed with the vanity
We’re our own celebrity
In our minds flaunting unapologetically
Show the good hide the bad
Vicious cycle driving us mad
Hooked on a wire as the eyes above watch us till we expire
But let’s be honest nothing’s gonna change
New norm nothing strange
I’m just a product of my environment
Belong to a deprived generation with nothing but a constant need for confirmation
I just want a real conversation
Is that really too much to ask
Can you put down your phone and take off your mask
Why you spending your whole net worth on the latest merch
Skipping meals just to say that you got it first
While some people are dying of hunger and thirst
But it’s not you so turn a blind eye and enjoy your life
Though I’m not really the one to talk
I’ve been chained to this lifestyle my soul under lock
Kinda wish there would be some catastrophe
And then we can move back into the wilderness and be free

euphoria
03:19
|

It feels like I’m drowning but underwater I’m breathing fine
It feels like I’m falling but my feet are planted to the sky
Oh oh oh
Searching for euphoria
Oh oh oh
Euphoria
What does it mean what does it mean to be alive
Not sure there’s a reason than to chase the high
I’m tryna find a purpose
But for now I’m consuming substance to get that rush of endorphins
Nowhere left to run guess I gotta face my demons head on
Wouldn’t it be so much fun if all your problems were gone
I’m doing whatever it takes just to feel something
Taking stupid risks for the thrill of it
Like crossing the streets with my eyes closed
My own kind of Russian roulette will the cars beep or just drive through
Leave it up to fate
Still alive so far maybe I’m invincible
Only God knows
Love I need none
Sex for pleasure
Trick my brain into thinking I should live another day
It’s a survival race
I’m the predator and the prey
Take a hold and never let go of that ecstasy
Cause any day you can lose it all to misery
It feels like I’m drowning but underwater I’m breathing fine
It feels like I’m falling but my feet are planted to the sky
Oh oh oh
Searching for euphoria
Oh oh oh
Euphoria
I ain’t gonna die I ain’t gonna die until I find euphoria
Searching high and low all across the globe but all I see is dystopia
When I sleep when I dream I’m in utopia
But as soon as I wake I’m running through a land full of phobias
Seconds turn to minutes turn to hours turn to days
I’m walking around living in a haze
Popping pills to comfort the monster inside
The water looking so blue I wanna take a dive
Getting baptized in Atlantis
Praying for that eternal bliss
Give me your blessing with a kiss
And pull me out of this abyss
Will you come with me will you come with me to find Arcadia
Go on a hunt on a quest to reach Nirvana
Anything to get my spirits elevated I’ll consume I’ll take
It feels like I’m drowning but underwater I’m breathing fine
It feels like I’m falling but my feet are planted to the sky
Oh oh oh
Searching for euphoria
Oh oh oh
Euphoria

letter/farewell
03:42
|

My head is somewhere in the clouds
Feeling so distant now you can scream it out loud
But it’ll still go over my head
My mind’s not present it’s somewhere between life and death
Walking around like bird box
Can’t see no light, too tired to fight
Counting down the seconds on the clock
Waiting for that final drop
If this song is my way of saying farewell
What do I need to say to sum up my life
I’ve been feeling so unwell
Got an urge to fly into that blue sky
Ohh a decade has come and gone
Half my life spent feeling so alone
I’m living on autopilot
Dealing with these voices in my head I’m in need for some silence
This a letter
This a letter
This a letter
In case I go
No need to reply cause I won’t know
This a letter
This a letter
This a letter
In case I go
No need to reply cause I won’t know
Always committing reckless behaviour
Hoping for an accident that’ll send me to my maker
I think I need some uppers
But still the only thing I turn to is that brown liquor
I don’t know what I’m so afraid of
Having trouble holding on and letting go
I’m waiting for a bus
That’ll finally drive me off this crossroad
Money I’m blowing out left and right
Don’t need no savings if I won’t be alive
Self sabotage
I don’t know why I’m still trying so hard can they see through my facade
I’m so good at hiding my pain
I got a reputation to maintain
Pretend it’s comedy when it’s tragedy
Until it’s too hard to sustain
This a letter
This a letter
This a letter
In case I go
No need to reply cause I won’t know
This a letter
This a letter
This a letter
In case I go
No need to reply cause I won’t know
Sitting here writing these poetry
That no one will ever care enough to read
I wonder what they’ll write in my eulogy
Will I even get one I guess we’ll wait and see
Farewell
Farewell

oblivion
04:00

It’s getting late
I’m feeling great
Drunk on this drink
It’s gonna be alright
As long as I don’t come off this high
I’ll be fine
The world’s moving fast
But I’m standing still
I can’t differentiate between what’s fake and what’s real
Got an empty heart
That I can’t fill
I love everyone but myself
Oblivion
Oblivion
Into oblivion I go
Oblivion
Oblivion
Into oblivion I go
My life looks so perfect
From the outside in
Checked off all the boxes on this list
But nothing feels like a win
I guess I’m not cut out
For this life I live
Peace is so hard to find
I don’t need more time
Just let me fade away
Oblivion
Oblivion
Into oblivion I go
Oblivion
Oblivion
Into oblivion I go
Oblivion
Oblivion
Into oblivion I go
Oblivion
Oblivion
Into oblivion I go
Mind over body
I’m being controlled by a higher power I can’t see
I’m no longer in the driver’s seat of my own thoughts and feelings
And what I’m feeling is so illogical but it’s still there you know
My mind is taking me to somewhere beyond this plane of existence
All I can hope for is once I get there this melancholy will disappear
Who knew nothingness could feel this good
Oblivion
