Im protected with a shattered shield walkin off the battle field
a wounded fighter, to spark the room up like a lighter
igniters within the writer losing sight upon his fire
an nightly im burnin slowly so, observe it closely
this right here could be the healing part
for this lonely bleeding heart I need to start
excepting these feelings baring my neck when im kneeling
I need a breath but I've been rejected from breathing
bobbin an weavin so I'm leavin theres so much to do
so very much to say to you this is how I pay my dues and walk away
the petty things will block the way but I'm not about to sit back
an let them take away what I built in years
pounds of guilt within my tears
so im rippin open my chest to show you that one fear
is here an its clear that its god
so I sit an spit a story for anybody wit ears to hear
in the short form of a song an then I'm gone...
(Chorus)
See I am half a man, an half an artist
but the only time I'm fallin down is when I laugh the hardest
compacted purity within these tracks like its white snow
Some days I wanna be under the radar an just ride low
Its kept inside so I see the world so dam coldly
livin off the advice that my mom an dad told me
to swallow its hard to follow pray for the happyness tomorrow
cuz today was plain an hollow, but I cant complain an wallow
I just keep the pain in bottled full throttle into this sound of mine
projected through the brownest eyes deeper than surrounding skys
I dont wanna answer phones, take a message I'd rather flow
if you aint pickin up what I'm puttin down then I've got to go
done tryin to find myself, done hiding behind the stealth
once I get up on the shelf Ima start defining wealth
a pictures worth a thousand words but I dont hear no voices talkin
see I made my mind my choice is walkin...
