lyrics

Let me put it lightly, just leave me to my plight
No matter how rude it sounds, believe me it’s polite
Even if I might vanish into the shadows like thieves in the night
Still manage with these shackles
With damage from the apple after Eve takes a bite
No crown in this story though it’s like Steven when I write
Preserve my history after grieving when I die
Don’t let them change it up like my achievements is a lie
Though the truth that is their failures ain’t a weakness in my eyes
Hope you’re keeping this in mind in case you’re peeping this and blind
Why does the mountain always steepen when I climb
Why does my value seem to cheapen as I grind
Why bother asking knowing damn well seek and I will find
If the world is your oyster, what’s the clam shell?
I’d like my therapist’s (beep) to be my last meal
Before I depart like DiCaprio holding his hands still

Drove all night, knee handling the van’s wheel
I was planning out my will
Call some family while I’m on this side of the tracks
If no one calls me back, Morty please hug my father for me
Soon as the train passes I’mma cross over
Soon as the train passes I’mma cross over
Soon as the train passes I’mma cross over
Soon as the train passes I’mma cross over

Lost loner with chronic wanderlust
Build a bond of trust with whom is kind enough to be fond of us
Future in my eyes like Elon Musk
Paper chase dawn to dusk
Before that I was just another face on the bus
Tapping my foot to instrumentals in my headphones
Instant mental notes, still getting bars in dead zones
Print it in my memory like vehicle dwelling bed foam
Every road led to Rome, none can get me home
The closer to the light, the larger you shadow and darker your world
That rabbit hole, imagine how much farther it burrows
Driven from South Florida to North California just to park there and chill
Whose down to go visit Arthur in Vero
Arc of a hero, prepared for the worst
I’ve learned main characters become caricatures
Crawled out the rabbit hole with a dirty shirt
Still see karats when I smirk
Cheek to Cheek when the meek inherit the Earth

Drove all night, bug splatter on the windshield had me in my feels
Call some family while I’m on this side of the tracks
If no one call me back, Morty I love you and I’m sorry

Out here tagging ARTY being the death of the party
Light Deps in a cigar leaf, have I slept? Hardly
Not like full of your heart I mean
Hardly like H-A-R-D-L-Y
Though hearts do spell bind, who knows the hell why

This train is taking forever and just got a lot slower
Soon as this train passes I’mma cross over
Soon as this train passes I’mma cross over
