Lyrics

I've been runnin' lookin' for the edge and I'm jumpin'
If we're judgin' then the landin' was especially stunnin'
They're not ready for the drop but still expect that it's comin'
It'll lay you out flat like we're settlin' somethin'
I was cookin' up a storm
The kitchen barely could function
After I finished my dinner I fed the wolves in my stomach
A simple walk in the woods that often led up to consumption
I put my money in the pot
I got my bread in the oven
What?
This is my golden ticket
It's finally in my pocket
My fantasy folded with it
My family holdin' riches
My enemies dead in ditches
I'm plannin' to plead the 5th
You plan to be sewin' stitches
I'm actively in the deep
Detachin' from what I see
And the passage to lead me back is the practice of what I preach
I can show you how to kill the last of a dyin' breed
My casket is all you need
Stop askin' if I'm asleep
I've gone lucid
Walkin' on the inner plane
Followin' my train of thought
Fell across a bigger game
Took a shot, missed, swallowed every ounce of pain
Swimmin' in the hollow where tomorrow never got its name
I bet I've gone insane
Swimmin' in the hollow but I swallowed every ounce of pain
Took a shot, missed, fell across a bigger game
Followin' my train of thought
Walkin' on the inner plane
And the world was on fire
I took a moment to myself to conjure what I desire
I'm lookin' for another hook that I can add to the wire
You can do it by the book or write a book to inspire
I'm alive in the fullest version of the word I'm certain
That you're surfin' on the waves that I'm coercin' into burdens
Serpents start dispersin' from my mouth and it's disturbin'
How I'm workin' out the kinks and you're observant like a virgin
I walk alone against the opposition
I took my throne without a bone to pick or pot to piss in
I call it home inside my zone and when I rock you listen
You couldn't medicate the state of mind in my condition
I wouldn't hesitate to paralyze the wider vision
Terrorize the lives of those who want it and decide to give in
I designed the prison cell in which my mind is livin'
Every structure bar for bar within it's fuckin' monolithic
Yeah it's fuckin' monolithic
I designed the prison cell in which my mind is livin'
Terrorize the lives of those who want it and decide to give in
I wouldn't hesitate to paralyze the wider vision
You couldn't medicate the state of mind in my condition
I call it home inside my zone and when I rock you listen
I took my throne without a bone to pick or pot to piss in
I walk alone against the opposition
I am your competition
