Gut (feat. Hannah Harleen)

Onward, upward, only one direction So why's it so hard for me to stay on track? A good friend told me I should only follow my gut But it's difficult when everyone around you relaxed Everyone around is fallin' outta touch with their heart And according to the numbers on the single you're whack Got your ego tellin' you to quit the gimmick you suck But your heart is screaming that you're only living for rap And your head is trying to figure out who's tellin' the truth And do it without havin' another mental collapse And your friends are askin' why you're never hitting 'em back And the truth is that you love 'em and you missin' em bad But your gut is tellin' you they tend to get in the way So you push em to the side if they ain't pushin' ya tracks By the time you wanna kick it everyone'll be gone All because your gut is telling you to follow a path Come back and I run away Come back and I run away Don't know how I've gone astray Don't know why I've gone astray Feel the pain of longer days I can feel the longer days I know that I wanna stay Tell myself I ought to stay Nonetheless I run away Come back and I run away Don't know how I've gone astray Don't know why I've gone astray Feel the pain of longer days I can feel the longer days I know that I wanna stay Tell myself I ought to stay Nonetheless I run away Read The Alchemist Said I'm down for this Never knew it was so lonely and so mountainous Know my destiny Now I'm doubtin' it Never would've thought that I would be around for this Get the alcohol Get the 'phetamines I don't wanna feel a thing if I'm about to quit And just then I got a call from my best friend Sayin' that my song saved his life, and he's proud as shit You gotta trust me This is what you live for This is what you must be Then I put the phone down I was gonna come clean Tell him that I'm quitting but now its bigger than just me Now if I ever stop, i got blood up on my hands All because I decided to follow one dream And I wouldn't have it any other way Listen closer to the message that the feeling in ya gut brings Come back and I run away Come back and I run away Don't know how I've gone astray Don't know why I've gone astray Feel the pain of longer days I can feel the longer days I know that I wanna stay Tell myself I ought to stay Nonetheless I run away Come back and I run away Don't know how I've gone astray Don't know why I've gone astray Feel the pain of longer days I can feel the longer days I know that I wanna stay Tell myself I ought to stay Nonetheless I run away Your heart is screaming out loud Telling you what you already know Don't get lost in the crowd What lies within you is glitter and gold Glitter and gold, glitter and gold
