The Sloth Lurks

Deep within the mind begins to produce sin and thrive
And deep within the answers that you seek they do lie
But deep within no one can fix it's only you inside

To end a hiatus is renewing a lease, on a childhood dream
It's growing from the past and staying true to your genes
All the hope that you had that started up in your teens
All the thoughts that you had, plots, visions, and schemes
And most of all asking yourself if you still believe
That you can go ahead, form it out, and make it an actuality
Getting out the maze is the part that's challenging
It's so easy to get used to dark
When you lose track of how many days it's been since you encountered a spark
Just be aware and be smart, make sure you never lose heart
Cause you gotta be ready when that door open apart
You need to run to the exit, need to dash and just dart
But you'll only have the chance if you don't pass at the start
So let's get off our ass and get to making our mark
Yeah we young right now but that don't mean that we can't move smart
We don't got time for none of that (ugh, ugh)
Relaxing, but I can't even blame you used to be on that shit too
Until I figured out that I really wanted to be that dude
So I had to up the ante and double dose all my cool
Start having too many thoughts of ways that I could improve
And I'm like shit if I got them then why don't I just go and do
Fullmetal Alchemist thought me a lesson when I viewed
One day when I was bored thinking about how sins rule
In the background and pose a threat to every who
I ranked all mine in order from bottom to pinnacle
And realized sloth was the one that had me most subdued
Still haven't figured out a way to slain and wear its mane
But once I do, I promise this shit will not ever be the same
Too many time I realized, can't be lazy in this game
When you got opportunities to put them boys to shame
And fuck the listens and plays that don't match up into a pay
Well worth the amount of time I sat inside my notes page
Worrying about who's not tuned in
Is a disservice to those who encourage my improvement
Support my movements and deal with my exuberance
So please treat me just like Prince
And know that I am focused on my art like the word artist itself
