Fashionably Late

Please accept my apology I’m a little too euphoric to be thinking logically How should I organize this happiness modestly? What a day, I’ll tell you chronologically Follow me, as I paint the day Pave the way for maydays to fade away Today was a great day I’m like Ice Cube without the drugs, cops or AKs I woke up on the right side of the bed And I kept dreaming till no wrong was left on the right side of my head Fist bumped my dad, Gave a kiss to my mama Nothing like nutella, cartoons and pajamas The sun ignites my hunger for life a wonderful sight My Facebook status had a hundred likes Hit up Nicky C’s, wrote a verse to reverse lies Man the flow dispersed fire, got it on the first try Hit up the homies and we laughing, relaxing Slapping some classics and freestyle rapping Open in the breeze and I’m feeling fantastic Coasting in the trees, I’m not even asthmatic I laughed so hard I cried Its like the clock grew wings and dipped into the light sky the way time flies The sun is going down, no wait The sun never goes down, the earth rotates So technically it’s always shining, the energy is always blinding, the melody is always climbing, no schedule or boring timing, just red and gold on the horizon, let it go and close those eyelids Arrived to the party, fashionably late Saw this girl across the room I gravitated Not to be cornier but her pupils and corneas had me captivated The euphoria, imagination fascinated Felt like we laughed for ages Had the hands of time faster pacing, (yes) Part 2 (Dark) I woke up on the wrong side of the bed Chasing out all the right that was left there on the wrong side of my head My eyelids like magnets, I only slept for 5 hours I rolled out of bed, hopped into my shower Throw on my hood and I walk into the misty dusk What do you know? I missed the bus and then I kicked the dust Walk into class late, my teacher thinks I’m careless and pathetic Underestimating the situation, barely empathetic She gave me a tardy, and told me I was hopeless I sat down and started zoning and dozing and losing focus The clock moving fast as molasses, trapped in this class My teacher asked for an answer and I bashfully passed When people lie or try to impress, I’m sick of it But that’s ridiculous, I was just a hypocrite The flaws in my self are what I despise in others A reflection of the side I try to hide under the covers The traffic screaming at me, immersing me in loneliness My pristine neighborhood becoming so monotonous I’m hungry so I look into the fridge and jesus All we got are those god-damn spinach quishes Doing homework but I’m resting my pen, because my girl is texting again Oh no she said we’d be better as friends But even my friends are accusing me of lies So I laugh it off until it’s bruising me inside So I’m smiling in discretion as I’m piling my aggression Take a giant and suppress it, through denial and repression Maybe if I could just edit what I spoke Log on to facebook some fool is taking credit for my jokes Procrastinating, my mind swimming with eventuallys Exasperating, my parents had the nerve to lecture me Alex, you have to do the dishes, study for the SAT’s But how’s a test gonna measure my identity? It’s like the elements are working together against me Spilling liquid out of my cup until it’s half empty I console myself, trying to be reminded of the pleasant I rewind it but can't find it cuz I’m blinded by the present My asthmatic throat is coughing and burning I’m yawning and yearning for sleep but I’m tossing and turning The darkness and doom is immune to the moon and clouds Feeling microscopic as my room is zooming out My dreams and reality are mending and blending Someone tell me when this nightmare is ending..
