Chorus
A rush to the eyes
I keep saying that multiple times
The surge of blood through my veins
Gives me a migraine from the pains
Verse 1
I got a migraine like I was banging pots and pans
At my desk with crumpled up paper flying away from the fan
One side to the next
It landed by the smooth complexity of my guitar
I see the vision from a far
Characteristics of the chords
One after the other calling to me
Saying Jake sing, bring out your pain, brain, and the notes of grain
When I sang those notes my books came alive
As if things were able to write themselves in time
The feeling I felt brought the chill to my spine
I just hope that fruit falls from the vine
Verse 2
From verse to verse my mind needs to align
Yet I feel brought up on the shore of a deserted island
Cuz the eyes I got are being blurred
Family is acting like strangers
Friends looking for figures
I'm just curious if I got fingers
At that time I couldn't seem to wipe those tears
But my lady looked me in the eyes and wiped them away
Saying I've done nothing wrong
and that I'm a man that is so strong
It means a lot yet I question
With my throat in congestion
That am I really so great
I truly try, even though people make those words fly
Sadness raining down from the sky
It's seek then I'll find
As I drink my glass of water without taste
Chorus
A rush to the eyes
I keep saying that multiple times
The surge of blood through my veins
Gives me a migraine from the pains
Verse 3
I'm still trying to find the answers
Feels like every year I don't have a home
Keep walking and moving along the East coast side
Going with the law we abide by
Skateboard on my back
making a city rap
tryna not make this line flat
Blasting the old school boom bap
Origins of the soul
Oh look wait I got to pay more toll
My pockets began to unfold
Losing part of what I work for
Verse 4
God is who I work for
I'm just struggling to see right
and trying to even sleep at night
All I'm accustumed to is the unkind lonliness
My girlfriend reminds me I got her in the middle of this
My eyes invisibly watery
Hoping I keep strong for everybody
Looking for true happiness inside me
Lord, I'm calling up for you
Hear these words I say
The smile I want to convey
Praying for a full day
Chorus
A rush to the eyes
I keep saying that multiple times
The surge of blood through my veins
Gives me a migraine from the pains
