lyrics

I’m cold lyrically I let my mind unfold
I’m bound by restriction and can’t calculate my toll
I’m hollow, transparent like glass bottles
emotionally blind I am drowning in my sorrow
I try to swallow but can’t grasp reality
my eyes are open wide and envision uncertainty
I never pray, for I know that I am my own savior
I’m in this world alone and in control of my behavior,
my words hit like a razor, exposing what is pure
tearing through the tendons and exposing the core
the nerves, the bone,cutting through the marrow
I can’t see the light the the tunnels end is too narrow
numb to sensation, my life is an equation,
I look in the mirror and hate everything I am facing
defacing I who know nothing of who I am
defacing I who know nothing of who I am

I’m numb, but I can feel the rage growing inside
I despise those who idolize, society cries
and I fear that it’s to late to change
rage flows through my veins anger intoxicates my brain
it’s strange, how everything I once knew disappeared
My body’s paralyzed as it is overwhelmed by fear, it’s clear
that in time we will all decay
the only thing remaining will be our eroding frames
I am a character who wishes he could change
I am a character who’s mentally deranged,
pain becomes the only thing that relates
it’s truly a disgrace how I’m stuck in this mind state
I contemplate, if I every turn I take is a dead end
I wish I could turn back I wish I could pretend
satisfaction doesn’t exist without a friend
satisfaction doesn’t exist without a friend

about

The Verbal Surgeon Massachusetts

Unabashedly East Coast, The Surgeon creates music that’s universally enjoyable. This is not snack-pack rap, this is grown man hip hop. Thought provoking, illuminating, honest. The Massachusetts native has a definite East-coast vibe emanating from his soul. He’s an open artist and a lyrical tyrant; The Verbal Surgeon has all the tools to make the game his.
