[Verse 1]
"Oh my god
I can't believe this shit
I can't believe this shit"
His mind spoke, within itself
Comin' out of a hell to grab life by the sack, he fell back
Upon his bed, not on his tendency to leak red
Not everybody be gettin' taken under-wing
By the hero they had as a kid
All he did was drop 19
All he wrote was this self-hate rap (rap)
Over trap, mixed with hip-hop, pop, and every genre (rah)
He taught himself to make
The work had gained some attention
After months of him droppin' it
Low in his gut like helium risin' up
Surprising him, cause never did he
Feel it was so cement, sure, he hoped it then
But now his whole hometown bump Dayme
Broke for not much longer
These kids wanna peep more
He so hype they adore and this corridor that he
Steady, steppin' into it's already, getting
Inches from being sealed, no returnin' to outside
This what he craved, though (uh)
Now he tour-bound, bankrolls
But his brain a bit depraved
Fuckin' the women, livin' the villain till he done shows
The masses waitin' and impatient for the next one
He need a break but they adamant
So reluctantly, he wrote

[Chorus]
The sun goes up and the sun goes down
I drown myself in all the sounds
All I do I do it, all for you
Every day I'm at my desk
At my desk I'm like the rest
All I do I wanna, do with you
[Verse 2]
2 years went, no, it ain't slow down
Wanna hit the breaks and take ten but not allowed
Feenin' for home, back on the road
Missed fam calls but he ballin', bigger than Kong
Coke and strong alcohol blurry the phone
His mentor reached out like "all you got you givin' up
Go live it up but breath a bit, you gon' blow your top"
"Wait, dude, fuck you
You jealous of me cause folks sayin' I'm way better
You old ass news, get a blues clue, my oil untapped
Like some virgin rap, dick
Dust, is all you collect
I ain't some artist you finna collect for a check"
So, with that bridge lit, the sound took a dive
Those who came before fame were miles away from his mind
A place called denial
A race to the next zero, bite the newest style
He knew it too but damn
He couldn't turn around
Like he stranded on, Zombie Island
Too scared to move, too full of fear
Trapped in the sand, attached to a brand
Takin' the handouts, circles of yes-men
No one to help him grow, old fans
Claimin' he sold out, new ones hate the old jams
Crippling anxiety holds tight, he so in need
Nobodies helpin', they want him to write
So he writes

[Verse 3]
6 years since the drop
For so long at the top
Adored fans but no fam
Could've sworn he wanted to feel so damn depressed
We stopped speakin', like, all together
My brother, it felt like his soul got robbed
Locked in a box he fell in
He could not exit his house
Xanax and E bound
No letters, the writing had ceased
Brought in a team, ain't even producin' a beat
This veteran flop
Simply the cover of books another made
This dug deep and the time was catchin' up
So, I wrote him a short note, little come down attempt
And tucked it in a box atop a CD and sent it out
A few weeks later, he opened it up
Reality hit him, tears, droppin' his cup
His hands reached down, lifted it up
His first release
A smile smacked onto his face
On the case, a note
It went "I know it all happened a bit rapidly
But recall how alive the craft made you feel?
Like back on hoover, when it was us 2
Now, who are you?"—he stopped
This struck a cord, he started to squirm
He knew all tracks but remembering hurt
So he took the box, let the contents drop into the fireplace
Grabbed a glass and just walked away
[Chorus]
The sun goes up and the sun goes down
I drown myself in all the sounds
All I do I do it, all for you
Every day I'm at my desk
At my desk I'm like the rest
All I do I wanna, do with you
[Post-Chorus]
Everyday, everyday
Everyday, everyday
Everyday, everyday
Every day, yeah
Everyday, everyday
Everyday, everyday
Everyday, everyday
Every day, yeah
Everyday (every), everyday (every)
Everyday (every), everyday (every)
Everyday (every), everyday (every)
Every day, yeah
