JJCraft31 - DISTRACTED | A song about ADHD

#jjcraft31 #adhd
A bit of a different song than what I normally do, and no one can stop me from doing it. MUA-HA-HA--
Anyway, this was written in inspiration of how my creating process usually goes; I start the project, wait a bit, work a bit, wait a bit, work a bit and so on. And so, my guilty conscience told me to write this song.
DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT ASKING FOR PITY. This is just my life.
My goal for this song is to not only communicate something about me, but that maybe someone else who has ADHD would hear it and be able to relate to me and be blessed by my work here. Being that there are around 22M people with ADHD, my odds aren't too low.
But enough yapping, please enjoy my ADHD song.

LYRICS:
Caught off guard, I’ve lost all my focus,
Everything else, my eye seems to notice.
Mind wanders off, and I can’t make it stop,
And everything else feels louder as a bonus.
Zero in on the job, try to meet demands,
But then, I find I’ve strayed from my plan,
Feeling lost, but at what cost?
I should understand.
I am Distracted,
Gotta get my act together,
Misdirected,
Gotta always redirect,
I’m always so off track,
And I must get back,
But I lack the traction to retract,
Oh, I’m Distracted.
Do you know what it means,
When it feels like your mind is bursting at the seams,
So many thoughts, taking room in my head,
At the time I should be doing other things instead,
Maybe we’d do better if we broke it down,
Attention Deficit-how does that sound?
I go insane, when I’ve got all day,
But my brain would rather play.
Though it doesn’t hurt, it feels like a curse,
When a concept is so simple, but your brain makes it worse.
No thought lasts a minute at max,
And how can I read, if I don’t read the facts?
Put it off for now, I tell myself it’s fine.
But then I always finish when I’m out of time.
Get it all on paper, but I can’t do that till later,
Because I’m a procrastinator.
I am Distracted,
Gotta get my act together,
Misdirected,
Gotta always redirect,
I’m always so off track,
And I must get back,
But I lack the traction to retract,
Procrastinator,
Don’t you do the things right now
You could do later,
It is all it is about,
I have confused myself,
Said I don’t need help,
Something I will never be without,
Time passes by,
Cause I give it the chance,
But it’s scarred with my flaws,
Left it back in the past.
Look to the future,
It’s all here to stay,
It doesn’t define me,
Deep down I can change.
I am Distracted,
Gotta get my act together,
Misdirected,
Gotta always redirect,
I’m always so off track,
And I must get back,
But I lack the traction to retract,
Procrastinator,
Don’t you do the things right now
You could do later,
It is all it is about,
I have confused myself,
Said I don’t need help,
Something I will never be without,
When I’m Distracted.
