Poetical rhymage.
I'm just one member of Northern Lights and this is my first ever mix tape release. I'm hoping by the next one i'll be using all my own beats but I am quite happy with some of what I got and I enjoy doing me so it's all good.
Lyrics
As I look down upon myself I see that I have died,
But a case of murder, most foul in daylight that shit’s strictly for sore eyes
The rage fights me from somewhere inside
Deeply holding my head in the fire.
I loved you
I loved you, (I loved you)
I loved you (I Loved You)
I loved you, (I LOVED YOU)
You betrayed me, daily, now stand away and free the hatred that builds in my stomach and now I’m foaming like I’m rabid,
Just another woman,
With a female’s behaviour.
We were lovers, something we could never comprehend, what did that mean, we’d study each other until the bitter end?
Until I sift shit through my pen and decipher my own feelings
Through coded outbursts of emotion now my ghost’s crawled out the ocean
And lays before me sprawled in submissive positions
All you gestures cut short by aggressive questions with no impressive lessons
The test is measured and expanded by selective pressures
Well….. I selected better.
But I am left to rotate in limbo coming up shorter than the lesser.
You’re focus was selfish with motives relentlessly helping me fester
What have you gained? Why did you sometimes act that way?
So submissive of my existence,
Leaving sunshine grey, and as I stand here in this instant,
The horizon starts to fade
And the pastel backdrop collapses, my dream’s prophecy acts out
But you daren’t follow me, deep down I always knew you wouldn’t
This is a game of survival and I wanted you to float
But in the process of teaching you to swim I drifted from the coast
And drowned, then found my ghost a part of me you never met
And on being reunited with myself, life passes by
And the water fills, a little deeper with the answers in my eyes.
You dropped a question in a letter, a bottle in an ocean and a tear spilled from me
You dropped a question in a letter, a bottle in an ocean and displaced this misery
Why… could we never fully connect, I gave you my life, mind and body but you buried them quick.
And now… everyone sits, but my body sinks as my soul becomes the heaviest bit
I’m left to think left here to drink.
The rest faded in a second with one expressive blink.
Jaded my heart, after parading it half way round the world with a whirlwind of distinct
Irrelevant torment and now I’m sore from the waters augmentation life’s least resourceful pressure, pain and alienation.
The water undoes me and washes out the ink, and I’ve forgotten how to dream
Lost the patterns of my sleep, and liquid waters down my screams
And I become the oceans breeze,
Trapped to dance amongst the sea,
to me there is nothing left to be.
As I spiral to the depths I forgot what I did see
You’re spirit enveloped me, prolonged the ecstasy
Now I’m amongst a thousand beings that walked this path yesterday.
And in time I’ll find myself again but for now I’ve washed away.
You dropped a question in a letter, a bottle in an ocean and a tear spilled from me
You dropped a question in a letter, a bottle in an ocean and displaced this misery
