Watch Your Step!

Dug a grave where no man will go Bury my thoughts that weigh down my soul If I find myself unaligned Must remember there's much too find Looking I don't see a way out of this tangled mess Yeah I know I got myself here but I could not care less Overcome where you're from, what you've done wrong (What you've done wrong) Take your guilt out of the cage and let it sing a song (Let us hear its song) Passing the moments of life as I know it I adjust the focus to find who controls us It's you and I fighting deciphering what brought us to live this way Teachers were dead when they taught us (They never cared) Stick to the shit you know I've said it's my time to go Hard to see a way out when you're drowning all alone Only finding comfort through the brightness of a phone Thinking how the fuck am I supposed to pay my loans When I ain't even making business that is helping fund my home oh no I'm broke again Still high up though coz I got some friends Strip it back to humble times I'll pray tonight I'm in the forest with two sticks I'm making music in the light Wishing I could have it all now Patience wearing thin sometimes I find it hard to just allow The elements that come and go They show us what we're looking for But not enough so that we have it Greatness can be made attractive Here I sit in my abyss Don't have no job I'm done checking the lists My younger days I don't miss Shit was so sour like a cocaine kiss Constant tests arise Blessings in disguise Feeling life is just a simple case of do or die I cry when I now fantasise Coz in my truth there's lies Is this journey only meant to make me realise That suffering is all around us even when we feel empowered Money is the worry I ain't strong I'm just another coward Fighting for a purpose that I think I have forgotten Tryna hold on to this energy will only see it make me rotten Run up Through the mountains break my troublesome ties You'll see me show up With all the forces that are at my side I'm tryna set the pace for what I know will be a gruesome battle Only way out from the grip of life to kill the snake and steal it's rattle Slow down Gimme that sweet surrender I remember Comedown The balance no one wants to face I feel the problem with existence is it makes us strive for uppers Yet we're so enchanted by this that we suffocate when no-one loves us Say I'm mature for my age I don't mind It's the lessons I've learnt and the demons I hide I conduct all my energy from deep inside If I try to please others I'm crossing the line Coz the only ones we truly know are ourselves Material pedestal break down the shelf Message to my younger self are instructions Do not think that you are unworthy of nothing
