lyrics

Sir name is lamb but I’m counting sheep, tryna chase a dream but you’ll never see me sound asleep, the mountains steep, the slope is what I’m tryna climb, I take another step every time I go and write a rhyme, it’s Everest cus I feel I’ll never conquer it, and then I think of Edmund and I think of his accomplishment, honest it is motivation knowing I can show the nation, faces they’ll be proud to know I’m bout to blow I’m bound for greatness, see I’m a dick that wasn’t cockiness, I know I have a talent I was pointing out the obvious, working full time and a sickness they have set me back, I’m making up for it by putting everything in every rap, so my aunties time is limited, it opened up my eyes, this is life and I’m living it, while I’m still alive I’ll get the pieces to the puzzle and I’ll put my dreams together that were broken in the struggle

Getting asked the question, what’s wrong with ya, tryna chase a dream but I’m faced with this insomnia, can barely fall asleep got the blankets pulled right over me, pillow on my cheek still my bodies saying no to sleep, thinking I’m the only one, tryna take a shot in the dark without a loaded gun, my flaws they have noticed some, pouring out my heart in my lyrics they have quoted none, got an album in development, a voice inside my head is telling me there ain’t no selling it, I’m starting to agree you a see a song I drop for free, it gets some views with it’s release and then it comes to a stand still, I’m wanting them to stan dilz but they can’t stand dilz, dumped from a height dropped straight into a land fill, it’s more than I can handle, this weight is on my shoulders feel I’m walking with an anvil

When it comes to life only thing that I am sure of’s death, Tryna chase a dream but I’m slowly getting short of breath, inhale on a asthma pump, when I hold the mic on the stage it’s with a fractured thumb, that’s my personal life, alone in this world only person alive, reflection of my pain with these words that I write, in attempt to soar free like a bird when it flies, coming from New Zealand where the hip hop scene is non existent, sometimes wanna quit but I’m knowing it’s the wrong decision, I’ll lose respect if i diss scribe, could also make a name see confusions what I describe, went to sleep and had a dream now I’m trying to pursue it, I just don’t know how to do it, guess I’ll go and take some sleeping pills, force myself to dream now the fans all are screaming Dilz
