Numbers

You count and you can try

But I refuse to be monetized

I am coloring with pastel hues

Do they evoke something good in you

Cause art is not a game

But I played so I forgot

What I really wanted to paint

Five six seven eight

I swear Im on my way

Though you would not love me today

Without the numbers telling you

Wish I could self motivate

No I dont mean self medicate

Though you would not appreciate me

Without the numbers telling you

Infinite

Every second relevant

Everything I was meant to be

Hours get devoured

We caught up inside the mystery of

Another silent night

Another silent fight

Please do not disturb

Been gone for a minute

They offended

None of my concern

Reaching for my zenith

Cross the finish

Everything Ive earned

I been bout bout it

Had some doubts

Anxiety I shown

I been busy counting

Streams amounting

Please get off my phone

I my own hubris

Cause art is not a game

But I found myself played

Is it what I wanted to paint

My dreams are all a bit shy

But dont you know they come with a price

Cause theyre the ones holding the brush

But are these colors ever enough

Five six seven eight

I swear Im on my way

Though you would not love me today

Without the numbers telling you

Wish I could self motivate

No I dont mean self medicate

Though you would not appreciate me

Without the numbers telling you

Every second relevant

Every minute history

Everything I was meant to be
