Inspiration Island Songtext
von Drapht

D-rapht, D-ra-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-apt
A-a-a-apt

My mecca of motivation is facing destruction
Develop growing hatred, the face of seduction
My patience erupted, now my liberation′s
Abducted, living through this name I've constructed
Not paid, so reluctant, sucked into darkness
A place where I couldn′t give a fuck if your heart's with us
Half your love doesn't even compare
To the energy I get from an enemy′s stare
Is anyone there? I′m short of replies
I'm starved with nothing to feed off in this Lord of the Flies
I′m cornered by tribes of doubt without an escape
I'm screaming and shouting louder to get out of this place
Looking out into space thinking, "How the fuck did this happen?"
I thought I would′ve kept on rapping till my lungs are collapsing
But I'm lacking all inspiration, racking my brain
And want it to be just like how they had it back in the day


Stuck in the timeless thought
Brought up to think my dreams are made
From the future, but of course the suckers were wrong
As I pull on the bong
Bubble my thoughts on a course inspired from a song
′Cause everything I think of stems from the past
Learned from my idols, not from a paid teacher in class
My heroes weren't rock stars or sports celebrities
The truth to be, I look up to my friends and family
I'm thanking everyone who gave me a chance
Or gave me a hand when my head was stuck in the sand
To my mum and my dad for their eternal love
My brothers, cousins, uncles, aunties and my little godson
You′re the reason and drive why I put up with these critics
Take the disses and see very low financial figures
I′m saying thanks, Lay and your family
Without you, I'd probably hang on the streets with the wrong crew

Deep in inertia (Stuck in the cold)
Last asleep, but the first up (Taking its toll)
But we keep moving further (We′ll never fold)
We just roll and we roll and we roll and we roll
But we're deep in inertia (Stuck in the cold)
Last asleep, but the first up (Taking its toll)
But we keep moving further (We′ll never fold)
We just roll and we roll and we roll and we roll


Never gonna quit this biz, it's too far gone
I walk the monumental step like my name was Neil Armstrong
One giant leap for mankind, nothing major
Syllabolik, historically, you′ll find it later
It's time for the peaks now, you feel this deep down
Echoing through your soul, now feel the rebound
Piercing your heart, now open your eyes
Enlight your lightning death when you're showing the light
′Cause I′m spitting these lessons at the stairway to heaven
So the gods can hear my call when I'm no longer present
I got a penchant for dramatics, but never mistake
My lyrics be the cogs turning that will instigate change
Every phrase, every verb, every word, every sound
Every little bit of shit that′s coming out my mouth
So get on down, kid, yeah
Drapht, Downsyde, Layla

Singing da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-dum
Da-da-da-da (Check)
Da-da-da-da

Deep in inertia (Stuck in the cold)
Last asleep, but the first up (Taking its toll)
But we keep moving further (We'll never fold)
We just roll and we roll and we roll and we roll
But we′re deep in inertia (Stuck in the cold)
Last asleep, but the first up (Taking its toll)
But we keep moving further (We'll never fold)
We just roll and we roll and we roll and we roll

The days, we′re all getting older
The nights, it's all getting colder
I need a shoulder to cry on, hear the call of the lion
Lost in Zion, Babylon, Perth city
Stand with me, march with me
Laugh with me and fight with me
Sip a drink from this cup and live forever
Listen to this song, it'll all be better
See, the road we chose ain′t covered in gold
It′s smothered with blood, it ain't covered with love
It′s the wisdom I want 'cause I need a heart
I need to be brave to face the past
I′m inspired by life 'cause these words I write
Are non-fiction, listen to the wisdom
Our actions are all preordained
Once you make a choice, things will never be the same

Welcome to the explanation for the weighted on one
Patience pusher slash voodoo cushion with a half-vacant tongue
Cast in the park of an aardvark′s gums
Wasting spirit like gum bar staff are now lies
More I'm down and tired than a car park
Hated mirrors, the first I slumber and the last up
A dark angel, number one
Steer to the ground and my stark naked soul's unfolding now
So come and fill my gaping holes
I staple peeled feathers to doubt and once blazing coals
Pillaging this stuff for clues and treasures
I′m still missing crucial parts like heartless lepers
Or six-year-old girls who left their piss glass
In African deserts, I′m a split bath searching for my petals
Or a tip to bask in, harping on one string
Far from laughing with inspiration
In fact, I think she's taken my man on a lont
′Cause he's passionately groping her curves as I′m deferred
Hanging for hope, drunk high, caught up in moping
Can't even teach myself the ropes I′m tying in
Now you're coping, revising brings me good reason
When I'm pinched and I′m bleeding
I′m like, "Lay, you're here breathing"
But it′s clearly eating away at chips
And I apologise, I only wish I had some advice for you kids

Deep in inertia (Stuck in the cold)
Last asleep, but the first up (Taking its toll)
But we keep moving further (We'll never fold)
We just roll and we roll and we roll and we roll
But we′re deep in inertia (Stuck in the cold)
Last asleep, but the first up (Taking its toll)
But we keep moving further (We'll never fold)
We just roll and we roll and we roll and we roll
Deep in inertia (Stuck in the cold)
Last asleep, but the first up (Taking its toll)
But we keep moving further (We′ll never fold)
We just roll and we roll and we roll and we roll
But we're deep in inertia (Stuck in the cold)
Last asleep, but the first up (Taking its toll)
But we keep moving further (We'll never fold)
We just roll and we roll and we roll and we roll
