Want It All - Peter James

I just… want success…

I just… want the power…

I just want the money…

I just want it all…

My room’s a tomb

Can’t move

Buried in stress, self produced

— Success visualized, without sleeping

Synthetic energy, medicine stops the bleeding

Stops the dreaming

— Cleaning wounds

Sunrise, sunsets.

Stars and moon

Time counting backwards, when credit card’s decline

Money motivating, with that failure on mind

Sometimes I… ask why… should I try…

Why should I… give my life — to see my demise…

Tell me why… Tell me why…

Tell me why when I try, I’m in the wrong state of mind

I’m fallin behind, rewind and press play

Takin' every shot, reload, let it spray

Take another shot, medicine for the day

With my grim prognosis, all I can is

I just want success, I just want the power, I just want the money,

I just want it all every waking hour.

Taste the blood in my mouth

All-out

Reality breaks down with doubt

Broken clocks, watches stop

Windows sealed shut, metal doors are locked

Ink appears to be — the key, still we can’t agree

No solution when soul recedes

Money ain’t free, neither are dreams

Double overtime, to increase the CREAM

Reach the dream, preach the dream.

Drink

Preach the dream, teach the dream.

Drink

Think.

Feel like it’s harder to speak

Perception fading, my mind is…

Weak.

Feel the same this week

It’s plain to see, I ain’t all that I aim to be

Lies getting bigger, rooms getting smaller

I hope before it kills me, it makes me stronger.
