Apparently getting wasted and recording myself singing in my room is a regular thing I do now. Rap is over this awesome beat my brother Shade made: https://soundcloud.com/mzshaidu/waves

Lyrics:
Livelihood ain't got much to do with it
Happiness bobs and weaves like a bouey at sea
I concede that it helps to be free
but the feelings of entrapment are real
I can only feel what I'm made to feel
I can only be as much as what I am
Call me what you will, review me as you see fit
I'll admit to any accusation
This vacation took a bitter turn, into better art
The truth in my heart is that I want to get a better start
I don't have much in the way of confidant
But there's no affront to the way that lyrics flow by font

Twenty beers may not yet be enough
Twenty waves might take me too far out
I don't wanna drown, but I wanna float here forever
Don't take me off the tether

Maybe I'm posing, or maybe I'm chosen
Maybe this ocean is truly frozen
I don't feel movement but I've travelled far
I don't feel motivated here at the start
I can't take the steps you advise
I can't take accurate account of life
I'm here deep off the trench off the shore
I barely know where I am anymore
You said swim, don't float along forever
I said please don't take me off the tether
I only truly fear sinking
I can't deal with the thinking
I only truly fear sinking
I can't deal with the thinking
I only truly fear sinking
I can't deal with the thinking
