The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Busy compensating for the lack
I don't see myself the way you see me, is that bad?
If hell's a state of mind then why is Satan on my back?
I'm sinking through the floor
Solitary nigga at his core
Hollow hearted shallow breathing sitting at the shore
Spirit can you hear me, I don't think I can endure
Will I grow old and mature?
Tore me apart
And punctured fucking holes in my heart
I'm sitting out here soulless, that's all
I thought the world was wonderful I thought
How many defeats can I afford?
Standing on my feet is not so easy anymore
Yes I feel more free and have the courage to explore
But currently I'm beat and bored
Where the hell is everybody at?
Everyone my age is off at college in a class
I'll go unacknowledged watching life behind the glass
I'm never really sure anymore
(To fucking)
Busy compensating for the lack
I don't see myself the way you see me, is that bad?
If hell's a state of mind then why is Satan on my back?
I'm sinking through the floor
Solitary nigga at his core
Hollow hearted shallow breathing sitting at the shore
Spirit can you hear me, I don't think I can endure
Will I grow old and mature?
Shallow breathing sitting at the shore
Spirit can you hear me, I don't think I can endure
Will I grow old and mature?
And mature, mature
