nightmares - l.e.j.r. lyrics

[verse: l.e.j.r]
watching a dream unfold in front of my eyes
what comes next? another, oh right the nightmares
signs i p-ssed awhile ago, kept on warning my drive
drunk on jealousy, greed was spinning my tires
which one? so many are possible now
what if in all these opinions i drown?
close my eyes fill my ears my mouth
pretty soon i’m coughing up lies
these breaths run out
what if i end up in a mansion?
plenty for three
only me myself and i
die as a leaf
fall so far such a pretty family tree
seeing colors that i used to keep
only come back for seasons, sleep in the booth
full of myself, no room left for truth
secrets on secrets, booze on bruises
lose perspective, or gain still misuse it
what if this my last song that i write with all of my heart?
the last beat before i bite, forget where i started
lose my hunger, forget this feeling of starving
pound after pound, don’t care what each dollars costing
what if someday i think i’m bigger than i actually am?
an icon in the mirror, a jaden who can’t
realize his legacy is views, no one understands
what if someday i find my own blood on my hands?
what if they give me the xxl?
but i don’t fit
stacking weight on my shoulders one day i can’t lift
fuse gets shorter and shorter, one day i blow up, it’s over
wanted them closer and closer but then the wave hits
fans instead of family
grammys instead of love
when push comes to shove, i push harder
my x calling, ill never apologize
i bet she just wanted my name on hers am i surprised
a ring on her finger, and suddenly she’s able to file
settles for half, i ain’t blind, i can see it from miles away
paranoid, everyone around me just see my face and think face value
wear a mask in this masquerade
how you trust anyone when i can’t trust myself?
no mirrors only reflection in my awards shelf
circle shrinks till theres no point, hugs became bows
what if one day my brother turns on his local news?
wife and kids watching in the room, ready for school
sees my face headline reads he was last seen in the hollywood area
i’m lost, gone, nothing that’s scarier

all my dreams quickly turn to nightmares
do i really want what i ask for in these prayers?
i could just never wake up
never speak about midnight
be another dreamer hiding out in plain sight
lose it all or never gain it in the first place?
what’s the difference? i wouldn’t leave a tmz trace
only left with what i see in the mirror to blame
imagining a story is perfectly safe
would i rather regret wonder if my nightmares mattered?
or od, end up in a ditch, which story is sadder?
gl-ss is half empty, is it really half full?
is all this still somehow beautiful?
they might never mention me, or just my mistakes
put my heart out on display, bleed out, or leave this in vain
b-tterfly effect, fates a funny thing
this beginning of an end, or a spark the world needs
so the question is
do we risk having nightmares, so we can keep our dreams?
