Lyrics

The end of an era

More isolated than ever

So many words up on my mind

Some I forgot, some I'm scared of

My mind is my biggest fear

Fear-mongering hypotheticals getting under my skin

I carved my soul like a pumpkin, now drug guts

Flame lit

I owe it all to music

But music don't owe shit to me

The only thing that fills this void

Besides drugs is making music

Sometimes love, but I

Always find a way to kill the Cupid

What's my plan

No master plan

Been playing day by day from then to now

This benders

Bending me backwards

A surge of waves is crashing down

This guiding hand

I once had is staying dormant

I'm racing forward without an award in

Sight, it's kind of taxing me

I feel like I'm the faculty

Watching not interacting, see, I

Feel kinda shunned

As time's flying past me

Fate's driving in the front

As I sit in the backseat

Hey taxi driver

I think that was my stop

He said no son

You're not as talented as what you always thought

I said what?

Then how did Kanye climb his way up to the top?

Like that one time where he said, "nah, this shit is hot."

I find that many moral codes have some discrepancies

I see that confidence and pride share similarities

Like how your confidence can lead to lustful tendencies

Maybe that's the devil living under us systematically

Teaching the children that the

Seven sins are no tragedy

They happen naturally

But damn, I am not John Doe

I'm really trying to get at that I lost some bravado

I guess this separation left a crack in my ego

And now I'm questioning if my confidence was really too sinful

Is my want for fame in music me thinking I'm better

Hundreds of people deserve it more

But I'm fueled like no other

They say you have to sell your soul to make it past the weather

But when the Devil's at my door, I'll have a nice Barretta

See, morals can be ambiguous

I proved it again

Because fighting evil with evil is redundancy in the end

Don't want to beat a dead horse

But there's confusion inside my head

Because there's right, and there is wrong

But over time, those same lines blended

(They told me to be confident, but egos run the system, too)

Quit tryna' preach to the masses

And start to face the fact that

This whole time, you thought you would get the final laugh

It's kind of saddening, you thought that music was a reckoning

An ancient knowledge that you thought could lead to your betterment

But in your mind, this was a scapegoat

A fleeting dream that was dressed in a raincoat

Protecting you from realizing you are no better

You just want the fame to prove a point to no one ever

Why do you feel so wronged?

Slow down

And let your thoughts reach your emotions

You're run down, get sleep, please eat

And watch the clouds

Just be content with who you are

You don't need fame to be found

I feel lost, I feel lost

That's why

I need reassurance from more than just one guy

I need stadiums that's filled to the brim with people

Singing my songs to feel a sense of worth is that so evil?

I don't know

But what I do know is

I can't end this era off on a low

Okay, I get it

Your minds really matter

I think bout the heavens

And I will get higher

I'll make this shit for fun

It's my renaissance

Picking up the rug

Okay, I get it

Your minds really matter

I think bout the heavens

And I will get higher

I'll make this shit for fun

It's my renaissance

Picking up the rug
