Origin Storey - Starving Artist

{Verse 1: Origin Storey}
I’m a starving artist
Drowning in thirst
Questioning if I can even draw
From my brain my hand draws
In the tone and style of God
Turn my emotions off
Until there’s a turn on
But in this vegetative state
Turn up the bass
To end up in grave
Planting flowers
On the 14th hour
Of the 7th day
Don’t act invisible
Because you are divisible
I’ll hit the mark to
Show nothing’s invincible
Sick of people asking me
Why you need your master’s degree?
Cuz grandma’s planted under a tree
I mean she got hers
So I must flourish
Proven that I've
Got a purpose
I kept honest and earnest
So personally
I earned this
Death comes any day
So excuse my urgency
I carry my family legacy
I can tell you right now
No one is ahead of me
Focused on identity
Learn how to move on
Am I really conversing with God
I need to confirm this ain’t a facade
But then next year I lose my aunt
How long will this go on?
Time can tell but what if I'm wrong
Don’t let vertigo kill momma
Pops might go cuz the alcohol
I can’t count my mistakes
Because my heart aches
And my spirit quakes
While I suffocate
I'm locked away with snakes
But I know what it takes
So it might okay
No, I won't waste away
While I lose my grace
Damn
