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
