about

One of the 3 bonus tracks for the project and the last one I recorded and wrote. I thought about what I had just been through (a failed attempt at dating, losing a "friend", the depression and loneliness) and I literally just started writing everything that came to my mind. No policing my thoughts, just straight up and down mental vomit. At the end of this, I decided to show that I was a different person after 10 tracks of pain and destitution. After the pain, learn the lesson. Impart your lessons learned into your brothers and sisters.

lyrics

Pardon me
let me sweep up these eggshells that I’ll no longer walk on around you
since you decided to play pussy, I might as well pound you
ground you into after thoughts not needed for discussion
once my head hit the floor, I was more than certain that I’d have a concussion
I wish I could see the hell you’re living in right now
but the minimal glimpse I was God-given what just enough know-how
know how not to make the same mistake twice
know how to protect my magic and stop fuckin around with my life
sometimes it’s easy to pretend to be unaffected by
but when that lava starts to boil and erupt no one can be protected by
their own force fields
always digging in the wounds that have yet begin to heal
I just need to make sure I can feel pain
so when it hits me, I’m not caught off guard like that first bump of cocaine
afterwards you’re never the same
how do you handle a wild heart that can nowhere be tame
at times I feel like the warrior of the battlefield
at times I feel like a fuckin loser
looking for the assailant but I’m the abuser
devoured the first round looking for the next meal
they speak of me as if I’m a savage
as if I’m letting the world fall dark when I have the key to light
allowing you to walk around blind when I have the gift of sight
what kind of man would I be?
instead I offer my hand to help you across the shaky bridge
I hand over my last to you when there’s nothing left to give
sacrifice my life as you have so much more to live
all I want is for us to be better than what we know
for yourself, for each other, for ours sisters and brothers
when the wave rise upon them, we are their cover
they say people like me are a thing of mysticism
and you know what?
maybe they’re right
