Lyrics:
Yo I feel like my mind is wasting away 
I can't even remember what I did yesterday 
I know I had some haze I blazed the whole day the rest is a daze 
Am I digging  my own way into an early grave. 
Yeah they say that life is a test
But I find myself thinking my life is a mess 
I get So vexed i guess I can't handle the stress 
Repressing the aggression with weed and cigarettes and 
Writing bars to to deal with depression.
Cos music is my method of expression 
Life is a blessing they reckon but I ain't buying what they're selling 
And I ain't believing they're telling, but I tell ya breverin
The hard ways the only way I learn my lesson.
But wait 
I got this feeling that I'm waiting to break 
Make a mistake, unravel and snap, hit the brakes 
'N I don't think that I'm mistaken when I say I'm forsaken by god 
But Fate will come whether you embrace it or not.
I mean is this rap thing gonna break or make a man of me 
Or did I become a man when I became a dad at eighteen 
So many questions man i dunno its driving me crazy 
But there goes my angel she came here and saved me.
And maybe I don't know where the dark trails lay lead 
I guess maybe I'm not supposed to know what may be 
I'll say it again see
So many questions man it's driving me crazy, crazy, crazy 
(Hook)
Sometimes I question my sanity 
Sometimes I get a reply
I feel like I'm losing mind 
All I wanna do is get high
Say goodbye wipe my eyes and leave  my sins behind
I pray to god but I ain't ever get a reply
Or maybe I did but I didn't hear what he said 
I have no direction I don't know what's next
I could go off the rails I might end up dead
If I don't stop following these dark trails inside my head 
Yo these dark trails are like my home 
Paths that I walk alone in my dome when I'm in my own zone 
Smoke a bowl and I get zoned out of the ozone 
Write down my emotions and let go on a microphone.
And I don't wanna die alone
But sometimes I'm just happier left on my own
I prayed to god but I guess he wasn't home 
So I guess I just gotta carry on going strong
Pretend nothing's wrong.
But It ain't just, it ain't fair
I put faith in a god he didn't even care 
Was he listening was he even there
I feel alone man I feel scared 
He won't answer my prayers.
I don't think that I came prepared 
I'm broke and ain't been repaired 
It's gone quiet out there so I let the music blare 
I lie back in the chair Light up a zoot and then pretend I don't fucking care.
But I'm still scarred got heartache 
Can't get to sleep and when I do I can't wake
I smoked weed nearly everyday for 5 years straight 
I got this feeling that I just can't shake 
I keep making the same mistakes.
Always shoulder the weight even if it's more than I can take 
Get baked to erase the pain 
Follow the dark trails inside my brain 
I maybe be crazy but I will maintain, maintain maintain.
