Oh, I got these things up inside my head
they echo
all this time wasted, keeps my mind racin'
I can hear the music playin' in my head
it echoes
all the sound's pacin'
keeps my mind chasin' echoes
chasin' echoes

makin' my way to an elevated state of mind
where if I ain't writing lyrics, I'm just wastin' time
I understand that all my dreams won't come easily
so workin' round the clock is
the one and only thing that's pleasin' me
and all this food on my plate is causing me to stress
I'm wonderin' if the path I chose is too complex
so what comes next?
people tellin' me to let go
but I just can't stop the echo

another day, another dollar's just what I've been told
but when you livin' like me, the money's rollin' slow
and making music it's supportin' me for right now
but sooner or later I'm gonna have to make my mama proud
constantly checking on the fan page and feedback
and studyin' the industry with labels and contracts
I'm driven solely off the signs of potential
hope it's coming quick
man it's drivin' me mental

oh, I got these things up inside my head
they echo
all this time wasted, keeps my mind racin'
I can hear the music playin' in my head
it echoes
all the sound's pacin'
keeps my mind chasin' echoes
chasin' echoes

got my hands holding up my head
I'm pushing my temples
just stressin' as I lay in my bed
but I know it ain't over now, gotta keep it flowing now
working for my goals even if they tell me "slow it down"
everybody's giving up on the music scene
we're just here to bring some real style to the mainstream
it's gotta turn around real fast, or else I'm losin' hope
computers killed the talent and with that
I don't think that I can cope
I grew up listening to reggae, only good vibes
now, I'm inspired by Beastie Boys and Jurassic 5
anything that get's my brain movin'
I jot it down
listen, I just keep mixing up these delicious sounds
I say it's time to for some new music to come hit your ears
deliverin' the message through the mic I hope it's comin' clear
instead of throwin' in the towel and erasin'
now I realize that I gotta keep on chasin'

oh I got, oh I got, oh I got to keep on chasin'
oh I got, oh I got, oh I got to keep on chasin'
oh I got, oh I got, oh I got to keep on chasin'
I got, oh I got, ooh

oh, I got these things up inside my head
they echo
all this time wasted, keeps my mind racin'
I can hear the music playin' in my head
it echoes
all the sound's pacin'
keeps my mind chasin' echoes
chasin' echoes
