My shadow creeps up the portals wooden frame My knees shake, advising I brake. My reality becomes obscured Conjure an excuse, quick somethin’ absurd Nothin’s comin’, the chains tiein’ me to home were frontin’, Ropes pulling me into a sea of I know nothin’, I'm pushin’ for peace Slow down feet The pool I'm jumpin’ into, infinity deep I can't sleep, Or eat So I creep, The decisions of past whippin’ me in the back Lashes cuttin’ flesh of black As soon as I cross that threshold no lookin’ back They got a noose hangin’ for my neck I feel its unbearable weight with every single step I can't allow the calloused rope build regret So I allow my mind to prep I'm ready, Ready to break it Ready to break free I’m choosin’ between life and death Between hell or high water I have little to barder The price is set high Everything I owned Taken on the sly So I'm left wonderin’ how and why How can I disappear? And Why can't I stop it? But to be honest I gotta drop it At this point I'm at the brink I'm only left to think I got 10 steps to the beginnin’ and end Bye, bye old friend Time is all but of the essence Seems like it will depend Am I unworthy, don't matter currently Sweatin’ buckets, **** it. I done bit off my fingernails Pulled out my hair Ventured to the farthest reaches, Of my mind Trust me there ain’t much up there But air.
The light of the day catches my eye Sweat forms mixin’ in my cries It reminds me I'm awake, I got somethin’ to feel.
We froze Dead silent Halt, finally. A moment, we stole. We weren't ready to let it all fall Moments of past concentrate on a face It seems I can't forget good ol’days So the next life at this moment can only be brutal I know nothing ‘bout it I know the pain is too much I already can't tout it I prayed to my gods I prayed to all gods. I prayed to anyone willin’ to carry my pain Found out other felt much the same So again I am left standin’
And you can believe and didn't plan it I'm breakin’ out My opportunity is now.
