lyrics

[Hook]
Could have been something bigger than myself.
But I got selfish. I got selfish.
Didn't know I could offer up my help.
And now we're helpless. Now we're helpless.
Now I pray I can find a way to melt.
And spill my essence. Until I'm breathless.

[Verse 1]
Captured by my vices.
So enamored with the glamour of a fabricated vibrance.
I'm past the point of lapsing know my actions made it like this.
Now I'm adamant to black out, rather shadow it than fight it.
Don't ask me how my life is. I'm coping with a demon.
Nothing I can do but keep on flowing with the sequence.
Steady running crawling hiding praying hoping to release it.
Because every bit of light I had was broken into pieces.
Holdin on to reason. Though I'm losing my bounds.
The only human that I'm being is one stupid and proud.
I got my view in the clouds but still my shoes on the ground there's no more moving around so what excuse I got now?
And if there ain't an excuse, you can bet that I'mma make one.
Tampering the path I'm on, so blind to what my fate does.
Crumbling from pressure of my choices piling weight up.
Not too jaded with my maker guess I'll face them when that day comes.

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
Prisoner inside my own creation.
Trying to escape it through the microphone and pages.
Fighting with the thought that I could die alone and vacant.
My mind can only take so much now I have grown impatient.
Fly in hopes of breaking out this cage that I'm confined in.
No fault except my own for this situation I'm fighting.
I know if there's a lock then there's a key and Imma find it.
Gotta keep on crawling walking running reaching jumping climbing.
Keeping vices at a distance, I know just what it takes.
Advice that I live daily, you ain't broken cuz you break.
It's all about resilience keep on flowing through the waves.
Never waiver on this path keep on holding on to faith.
There ain't nowhere to escape, that's a blind assumption.
There's hope to start a new way if there's room for climbing jumping.
Reaching running walking crawling I won't fucking die for nothing.
I know I can't be everything, but I'm truly fine with something.

[Hook]
