[Verse 1] |
|
They say a man is immature until his son is in his hands |
|
And his fields start to die, no sun upon his land |
|
You could stand under the cloud and never understand |
|
There's a big man crying, he never learned to laugh |
|
When I die I'm gonna sit up in my casket |
|
Hug my family like it's the last time I'll have it |
|
You know I'm trying not to take this gratitude for granted |
|
I know I got a heart that could be harder than some granite |
|
This graphite in the hand it's getting drastic, crafting |
|
Something that if you didn't know what I could do you'd call it magic |
|
My blood is lavender, they call me a romantic |
|
As hopeless as I am, love paralysed |
|
Stranded in this quicksand you call a place to camp in |
|
My homies smoking **** beside a fireplace inside a log cabin |
|
I guess that's all you can get as a marionette |
|
I'm high strung all over which juggling act I gotta follow next |
|
You don't believe me but I cease up when the breezes |
|
From the coast touch up over 30,000 in coach |
|
Little Nemo when the clock strikes twelve upon the bedpost |
|
Fly as Icarus so in my memory they press the wax to 12" so they can drop it |
|
So ironic like my generation representing city populace |
|
Raise the roof or point to me I stay on top of this |
|
I'm 40,000 leagues under, stuck in the sarcophagus |
|
Coughing ominous articles under waterfalls |
|
Prisms caught my eye, it was love at first optical |
|
Bottomless homages to life, these people die for it |
|
But I'mma hit on all these ******* in the sky for it |
|
Sharper than a sliver of light in a broken soul |
|
They cut into my skin like faces on a totem pole |
|
I swear to God I saw my dead friends in the sand dunes |
|
The faces blew away in the wind, I knew they had to |
|
[Hook] |
|
It's called never giving up |
|
When all the pieces in the background are crumbling to dust |
|
My clock is mumbling the months |
|
While the Earth's blood boils up under the crust |
|
(Repeat x2) |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
I'm losing altitude |
|
You're losing trust because they count on you |
|
Everybody wants to be the ??? dude... |
