Into the Abyss

I feel like I've been here before

Real life or dreaming, unsure

When all my travels could all unravel

In a heartbeat or a thought

And if my legacy's abolished

Then whatever we accomplished

Did it for the pedigree, I don't see an enemy

Then to me y'all are potentially accomplice

Cause some men rise above

Some men fight enough

Until there struggling becomes them and are defined as such

Who the fuck then divided us

It's like I'm born every morning, die every evening

War at my door reviving my demons

I'd rather die with my convictions than live a life with no meaning

So I hold court like the king of the mountain hall

Every one everything is accountable

Face the music and embrace the truth of all that makes us human

Then I think I'd be proud of y'all

If I am, all I said I am

And we are, all in together and

From where I stand I'm just trying to get a plan

To build a better man for this Neverland

Maybe a dreamer, make believer, try escape the ether

But the great deceiver lives inside to feed a basic need for

Identity of own, set me in stone near my legacy to grow then I'll never be alone

It's the music that will ferry me to home

I'm not lost, I've been following my own path

Not blind, been looking at my future not past

Ain't done, staring into the abyss daily

Until that man in the mirror ain't me

I'm not lost, I've been following my own path

Not blind, been looking at my future not past

Ain't done, staring into the abyss daily

Until that man in the mirror ain't me

Feel like I've been here before, in the abyss

Looking up to the great expanse

Stars in the sky, stars in my eyes

Won't stop till their stars in my hands

Feel like I landed on Mars

I feel abandoned in fact

They're all on Dancing with Stars

Making fun of artists who actually rap

I lost my confidence

Till I got on my flex

Now can't tell me nothing, city all suffering

Tell God he got a Suffa complex

I'm draped in the belt of Orion

I'm praying the truth rings out

They're saying the loud things quiet

We're saying the quiet things loud

I wanna rock right now

Want every single rapper on the block wiped out

Everybody coming at the Hilltop, lights out

You're running down seconds on the clock, time out

What? Pipe down, we don't care what you think of us

We're the shit and you can't sit with us

You trying to fly by clinging to Icarus

I'm trying to drive by liquor and cigarettes

I'm trying to be a better man

Ask Eddie Vedder man, I'm trying to be Clark

I feel like Letterman, hiding my venom in

A coffee mug with a broken heart

Open bars probably going to kill me

If all this touring don't

From the heart sincerely

All I want really, is to watch my children grow

I'm not lost, I've been following my own path

Not blind, been looking at my future not past

Ain't done, staring into the abyss daily

Until that man in the mirror ain't me

I'm not lost, I've been following my own path

Not blind, been looking at my future not past

Ain't done, staring into the abyss daily

Until that man in the mirror ain't me
