I had some stuff on my mind last night. 

I’ve lost friends
And lovers
I won’t pretend
Like I’ve got it all
Like I’ve got it all so figured out
I figured out
That I was someone that I thought I wasn’t
I made a mess
And now I’m cleaning it up by the dozen
I get so terrified
That I’ll just end up being nothing 
But there’s a part of me
That knows that all I need is loving
How do you do that?
Cuz I can’t 
Do what I need to do and stick to the plan
So tell me
How do you do that?
Is it wrong?
To wish that I did but know I’ll never belong?
How did I do that?
In my head
I feel like I’m the only one still sad
But you already knew that
And I swear
I’m trying to be better
But it’s always there
How did I do that?
How did I do that?

MUSIC THAT BLEEDS. SCARS THAT SPEAK.

Cryptic Wisdom is the hybrid alt-rap project of Arizona-bred artist David Gonzalez, blending raw intensity with rock melodies and hard-hitting hip-hop lyricism. No genre is off limits. This is music born from pain—battles with sobriety, childhood trauma, heartbreak, and hopelessness—transformed into something powerful.

Vulnerability and grit run through every verse, creating a sound that nods to multiple genres but exists entirely on its own. This isn’t just music. It’s survival with a soundtrack.
