lyrics

Content with his own companionship
Had a job to do, so he couldn’t just abandon it
The process, he learned to be a fan of it
So when the sun does shine, he’ll just stand in it
For a minute, then it’s back to the shadows
Dwelling in the dark, not because he’s sad tho
If he’s at a rap show, rocks his hat mad low
If he’s not rapping at the show, he probly can’t go
Even if he’s supposed to go, he might miss it
Somewhere in the wind like a tornado, twisted
Turned off his phone, he don’t have an assistant
Super human how he could just vanish in an instant

Find him on a stool in a pool of regrets
Tryna keep his cool like a fool in the flesh
Knowing damn well that this world is a mess
And it won’t be too long til there ain’t nothing left
Dueling with the stress of just being alive
And witnessing more than one should see with their eyes
From fires being fed as seas seamlessly rise
He still shoots the gift without receiving a prize
The real gift to get is in the work in itself
So hold your soul like you know it isn’t worth it to sell
The real gift to get is in the work in itself
So hold your soul, cause you know that it’s worth it

The dauntlessness comes from being desperate
Once he wedged his way in, he couldn’t find the exit
So he took a ride on this wonderful head trip
Until the unexpected was all he expected
This life might kill you if you let it
He almost let death befriend em when he met it
Instead he wised up and abandoned where he left it
And now he’s making sure the two of them remain separate
So for now it’s just him and the past that surrounds
Getting so lost in the raps that he found
His body might go into the trash or ground
But the songs will live on way past what is now
That’s what’s keeping him alive
Someplace hidden, where he naturally can thrive
Away from all the looks and the all seeing eyes
Escaping into books and a glass full of rye

What a place…
