[Verse 1: Rav] There's something rotten inside me You told me to be better, ain't honestly likely You told me to be more, truth is I cannot be You told me to be smart, kept promising I'm free You told me to be strong and belong, alarmed me That otherwise my life won't be long and lively Do something when I'm gone they don't despise me You told me don't be wrong Forgotten that I'm me? Become something that I'm not Crushed between the four walls, ceiling and the floor boards I can't walk nor see forwards, when I talk my speech Mordor Scrambled thoughts that need order Not in reach, they're lost in deep waters Drawing on sleep exhausts my zeal harder Caught in grief I've honestly authored [Bridge: Rav] I don't wanna swim no more, I wanna fly Looking up at those that do, but I don't identify I feel lonely when I try, my dreams always seem to die I keep falling, I'm so sorry, I'm appalling in your eyes [Chorus: Rav] Show me how to be, I'll show you how to not I will climb the tallest tree and tie the tightest knot Yeah, I'm flawed as hell, I could never love myself As long as I carry this guilt, I will never feel fulfilled Show me how to be, I'll show you how to not I will climb the tallest tree and tie the tightest knot Yeah, I'm flawed as hell, I could never love myself As long as I carry this guilt, I will never feel fulfilled [Verse 2: Rav] Beep, beep, beep, beep-beep, beep Beat, I reach for the screen, I need sleep This sequence is bleak, it reeks, then repeats Week after week, increasing my fatigue, I feel weak Tough to conceive I still bleed When I seem to be proceeding on reflex, deceit That I could feel relief, that I could seek dreams Which, seemingly all my experiences deplete See at the beginning they said that I would be winning What a beautiful thought, but one I no longer believe in Belief feels belittling now, I've been beaten Bested beast, depressed and defeated So rest in peace to me that felt different Guess I failed at living, guess I fell and I guess I'm frail So my failure isn't your fault, just the weather shifted And my feathers withered, uh [Chorus: Rav] Show me how to be, I'll show you how to not I will climb the tallest tree and tie the tightest knot Hell yeah, I'm flawed as hell, I could never love myself As long as I carry this guilt, I will never feel fulfilled Show me how to be, I'll show you how to not I will climb the tallest tree and tie the tightest knot Hell yeah, I'm flawed as hell, I could never love myself As long as I carry this guilt, I will never feel fulfilled R-A-V [Verse 3: Rav] One lonely night, coming home from work to heavy rain Thirty feet from the train cross I cross every day Bar halfway down, I don't hesitate Close both my eyes and for heaven's sake hit me today I just want it all to be erased, disappear with the fear and despair Dissipate, all I've ever done is been afraid All I've ever done been is been this way You claim I ain't broken and you liken my wounds To things that you deal with, with ease, I should too You make me hate me more than I should hate you It's always you, you, you But mama, I'm me I just wanna be And I hope you're okay with that

CornmanRuss Ok now listen very closely here’s how not to be depressed after watching Evangelion. Stop watching KZread or anything else and make friends with others and accept reality. Instead of running away from it because that’s what Evangelion is about.

The last verse always hits me deep down my heart. I love this piece of art.

I've always had a soft spot for atlas, atwood, samsa, and everyone making that lofi rap stuff, then I've transitioned to potsu, elijah who, and people like em. Basically, I love this a lot :)

@Just Here Lovely, never agreed with somebody about lo-fi rap as much as with you, you literally listed all of my favourite ones, that got me into lo-fi. Worth to mention: Try Ben Beal - Sand and Bean Beal - Smile, These two songs that i discovered, were the catalyst, and to this day i listen to them. Else, i dont really listen to other of Ben Beal's songs.

@@denisdao9404 My playlist actually started with some Ben Beal. He was kinda like my catalyst too. I also come back to starRo-Milk because thats my first song on my playlist. I started with majestic sounds and have diversified since then. Really great to see another person with good taste :)

been listening to this song since it came out, every time it hits deep. had an unhealthy relationship with both my family and the people around me growing up, in the way of being neglected and forgotten. hope you guys in the future don't have to go through rough stuff, and if any of you have kids, show them the kindness that's not been shown to us.

Rav x Evangelion is always an amazing combination

i love how the end is Shinji going to his mothers grave, and the last part of the lyrics really hits different with that

ah yes, potsu + neon genesis evangelion, the perfect combo

Damn I didn't think a potsu and rav collab would work, but now I'm pleasantly surprised

don't know what have the summer with Evangelion amv but I love it

THIS IS A HOLY COLLAB I LOVE THEM BOTH SO MUCH

4 minutes of straight perfection

a very good song that i think personally is extremely underrated
