All of these things messing with my head. The bad influences that keep me up in bed. All of the haters that won't go away. The things I have to deal with everyday. Trying to live my life above the fray. On top of it all is where I try to stay. It hurts just to try to live, I am not sure what else I can give. I say I am down for the struggle, until everybody wants to take double. I wonder what difference I can make? All of the people talking at me, they are all fake. I just want to keep it real, but I am getting even more confused the deeper I go in. The static is getting into my head. Living like this much longer, I will go insane. I need someone to hit the mute button, if only for a day. All I am seeing is sorrow in my life, I cannot find the joy no matter how hard I try. The life I am living was not by my choice,  I get lost with all of the haters, creating all of this background noise.
