Mayday by Bukshot Lyrics
[Verse 1: Bukshot]
Think so deep, they don't understand me
Gotta get it now but I don't have a plan B
No escape route, gotta feed my family
What you know about nothing in the pantry?
A-a-any moment I'm about to break (I'm about to break)
I can feel the pressure only so much I can take
I can feel the sweat and tears are running down my face
Blood on my shirt and I gotta get straight (get straight)
Think about the gun in the closet (closet)
Thoughts running through my head like a faucet (faucet)
Mentally I'm feeling like a mosh-pit (mosh-it)
I can see the news now "Rapper done lost it" (lost it)
It's an end game looking for the win game
Time flies by spinning like a wind vane
Like a freight-train I can feel the disdain (mayday)
Can anybody help me out with this pain?
[Chorus: ¡Mayday!]
I feel the walls are closing in (walls are closing in)
I feel the sunlight's done shining (done shining)
And I can't find, I love my friends (I love my friends)
The pain is oh so, so blinding (so blinding)
We get old (we get old)
And we grow (and we grow)
There's darkness in my mind-state
You should know (you should know)
How it goes (how it goes)
I'm hoping someone finds me (finds me)
[Verse 2: Bukshot]
Checking out the news on TV, telling nothing but lies and deceiving
Can't believe my eyes tell me what I'm seeing
Living in a word I don't wanna be in
Showing airplanes taking out buildings (ooh)
Quicker judges, re-electing villains
Greedy politics racking up millions
Taking food out the mouths of our children
Wa-wa-wa-watching you best play God
Straight to the middle-east wage Jihad (Jihad)
Why they wanna start a war so far? (so far)
Got enough trouble in our own backyard (backyard)
All lies backed by the media
Wanna protest, they not hearing ya
Dig deep, watch 'em get rid of ya (mayday)
Here we go, next stop; Syria
[Chorus: ¡Mayday!]
I feel the walls are closing in (walls are closing in)
I feel the sunlight's done shining (done shining)
And I can't find, I love my friends (I love my friends)
The pain is oh so, so blinding (so blinding)
We get old (we get old)
And we grow (and we grow)
There's darkness in my mind-state
You should know (you should know)
How it goes (how it goes)
I'm hoping someone finds me (finds me)
[Verse 3: Bukshot]
Up late but I can't stop thinking
Mind's like quicksand can't stop sinking
Do anything to shake this feeling
Screws came loose and my hole keep leaking
Bl-bl-bl-blood on my hands and conscience (conscience)
Memories still keep my nauseous (nauseous)
Bad dreams, nightmares and darkness
Fuck my ego, tryna be honest
In a room playing chess with the Devil (Devil)
But the winner doesn't get a shiny medal
Life or death so the game is not level
Might as well cheat (huh) always been a rebel (rebel)
In deep, I don't think I can win this
No sleep, blood cruising like Christmas
Six more feet and I'm going out of business (mayday)
Anybody, can I get a witness?
[Chorus: ¡Mayday!]
I feel the walls are closing in (walls are closing in)
I feel the sunlight's done shining (done shining)
And I can't find, I love my friends (I love my friends)
The pain is oh so, so blinding (so blinding)
We get old (we get old)
And we grow (and we grow)
There's darkness in my mind-state
You should know (you should know)
How it goes (how it goes)
I'm hoping someone finds me (finds me)
Think so deep, they don't understand me
Gotta get it now but I don't have a plan B
No escape route, gotta feed my family
What you know about nothing in the pantry?
