Temporary

I be by myself most nights,

Screen glowing at my bed side,

Writing like I got somewhere else to be,

It just ain’t at the right place tonight.

But I hope this is temporary,

I Hope I ain’t here forever.

Right now this platform’s what Ive got,

So I’m writing songs up trying to give it a shot Maybe one travels further than me,

Maybe it’s this one Im writing tonight

Or the other one coming but not written yet But in my mind and Becomes the reason they remember me

I hope it’s only temporary,

Writing here every night ’cause right now this is all I got. Putting everything into these songs, Hoping one of ’em takes me along to being wealthy

I don’t wanna stay here forever

I’m just using what I got until it gets better.

If this platform gives my name somewhere to start, Then I’ll keep dropping every piece straight from the heart.

It’s temporary,

Yeah that’s what I’m calling this.

Until one song turns into something big

I can’t sleep so I write, time moving another night, Another beat another line, another chance to get it right Two, four, six, eight songs sitting in the drafts Some serious, some are dumb some just made to make me laugh a lot but I’m on a recreating montage so you might hear what I have, I ain’t got a studio it’s just me and my walls, I got whatever’s in my head and this is where I can drop it all So I’m working with the moment I ain’t waiting till it’s perfect

But If I want somebody to listen to what I’m writing then I’ve gotta to give ’em something thats worth hearing for

Everybody wants the top,

Everybody wants the numbers,

Everybody wants the money when the numbers start becoming

Something bigger than expected now they to deeply invested

But I’m still sitting here writing like the first one never left me

Yeah I wanna make money

I ain’t gonna fake that part

But money ain’t creating every lyric coming from the dark. I got multiple scars and only one of ’em gotta hit, Then somebody hears another one, now they going through n liking that they’re listening to my shit, and That’s the plan

I hope it’s only temporary,

Writing here every night ’cause right now this is all I got. Putting everything into these songs, Hoping one of ’em takes me to the top not saying I deserve it Not saying fame is guaranteed

I’m just hoping all this writing

Turns into somewhere I wanna be

Temporary,

Yeah that’s what I’m calling this,

Until someone hollers out my name real loud, Until I’m going somewhere different For the cheering crowd

So the writing won’t stop until I’ve made it there

Ive written heartbreak,

Written love,

Written when my head wasn’t clear stuck in the mud, Written when I’d had enough.

Written about people leaving,

About wanting somebody near me,

About memories I still didn’t think I cared for, about everything changing through the years I’ve learned from the last one making another song before I’m finished with the draft one. Cuz this became somewhere I could put my overcrowded brain thoughts and I hope its only temporary
