jay-bird (musician) - insomnia lyrics

[verse 1]
yeah, uh
i’m switching up my genre
metalhead with insomnia
jumping on the tracks
while the train’s coming for ya
paranoia
beating at my brain
making me insane
tryna take the reins
i’m fighting back
cause i have the heart to make it shine
a dream that is in line and a will to intertwine
i put my life inside this rhyme
writing songs all the time
’til the reaper comes and takes my soul
a meaning so divine, uh

i just
i can’t sleep with all these
these thoughts in my head

[verse 2]
yo
i’m stuck inside my house blaring music all about
living in my bas+m+nt ’til it’s time to hit the stages
recording every day, i gotta slave away
this life that i live, it’s a daydream away
sending hooks to h+ll, entranced by a spell
i got a lot to say, no time for a refrain
i hear what the critics say
they want us all to waste away
trash on the radio
where did our culture go?
society wants us to pay
looking for a way
to lead us all astray
politics got us split
got us all in a fit
it’s time to come together
or the nation’s going under, yeah
i got another verse
it’s a blessing and a curse
it might just make things worse
but i won’t end in a he+rs+

[verse 3]
i got another verse
it’s a blessing and a curse
it might just make things worse
but i won’t end in a he+rs+
listen up, we all have love
we all have hope
and we all have dreams
that make life dope
but we’re not all the same
some of us are insane
others have no brain
can i put it more plain?
you’re fighting for a lost cause
screaming out behind bars
staring up at the stars
what i wanna say
is any way is right
and every way is wrong
there’s no right or wrong
just a guess to go along
fighting for a freedom that is long since gone
searching for a reason to come out strong
music is my life
i love it with a strife
it cuts like a knife
opens hearts with a slice
it keeps me up all night
it keeps my thoughts on a never+ending loop
let’s go

[verse 4]
yeah
i’m switching up my genre
metalhead with insomnia
living for my passions
it ain’t too much i’m asking
i spread my thoughts loud to the back of the crowd
’til everybody knows that they are not alone
’til everybody knows that it’s okay to fail
’til everybody knows that we can all prevail
’til everybody knows, when it’s time for show+and+tell
you don’t have to be ashamed of the story that you tell
see, i’m a loser
i don’t have all the answers
a mic, a pen, a couple burned+out friends
a big imagination and desire for creation
that is all that i need to awake my motivation

been chasing this dream since the age of fourteen
to become anyone that i dreamed i could be

[verse 5]
been chasing this dream since the age of fourteen
to become anyone that i dreamed i could be
years later, nothing’s changed
nothing but the aches and pains
nothing but the tears and rains
long nights in these trains
but desire keeps on pushing me
to hit the stage, to show my rage
to turn the page on this book
of fallacies where the aged lose their way
the youth fade away
waiting for another day
to run away from the pain
of being stripped of your zen
[bridge]
and the world just keeps on turning and turning
and i feel like i just have to keep on creating because
without creation, what is our society really worth?
can you tell me that, huh?

[outro]
metalhead with insomnia
up all night with paranoia, uh
metalhead with insomnia
i’m going crazy in this bas+m+nt
d+mn
