They say live in the moment but this moment ain't good
Dreams of the future are the only thing that keep you alive in the hood
And I ain't in the hood, more like a hoodie
Just bend your head down and study
While the world outside goes all topsy turvy
Nothing says the future will be better than the present
But the present isn't a present, more like something I resent
Been so long meeting anyone, don't remember the scents
Don't remember their voice, don't remember their face
Never felt anyone, so don't know how it feels
Life is so evil, it takes and it steals
Peace of mind I only get in my sleep
I search for something, I don't know what
If only I could find someone like me, that seems a good start.
