lyrics

I don’t know where to begin so let’s start here
coming thru the fog I'm just tryna get my thoughts clear
finally caught a glimpse of how and what I lost where
Kevin Finnerty afterlife hotel with the concierge
unfamiliar names but the faces kinda ring a bell
nostalgic stink of hell one-bed single-cell
couple Bubbs and a Stringer Bell
this is no four seasons more like a weed eater sale
spend forever tryna do it all in one take
like waiting for the perfect drop, searching for a drum break
pump fake
wide awake, up late
tryna make a loaf of bread from a crumb’s wage
on Sundays all shadows in the sunspace
take the beast by the horns tryna see if something shake
now everything anew,
believe me, if I said it, everything is true
did some things i regret worth forgetting too
it’s a wild game like unbelievable yeti proof
the abominable end times of inkline
facing fears kinda be like that when I pen lines
ink spill like blood carrying enzymes
tryna digest the past instead of bend time
(mmm, this is fine)
dirty fingernails picked nails out the coffin
roll away the stone at the tomb I was tossed in
I was judged they were cursing, scoffing
holding up finger crosses to be cautious

quick to pass judgment
slow to sense self
hard to lose it all
when there’s nothing else left
born again in a photo album on a shelf
duck hope well in a battle with mySelf
by the time i hit the bottom I’d forgotten my own depth
aprilsnakeface come alive, enter stealth
get it how it comes with the info I intercept
not a single thing's been the same ever since I left
quick to pass judgment
slow to sense self
hard to lose it all
when there’s nothing else left
born again in a photo album on a shelf
duck hope well in a battle with...
everybody else but myself
might as well have been in hell when in jail
swore to ____ that I’d never tell
still got mail that I got in 7-cell
but that’s a story for another verse
right now I’m watching family empty out my mother’s hearse
acoustic version of amazing grace unrehearsed
never seen a corpse smile and peacefully return to dirt
since then swallowed whole by the universe
power in numbers but you decide what you are worth
the story of every fallen one balled all in one
still tryna pinpoint where it all begun
we’re all one in the mud judged by the throne
that ain’t the kinda hill I’m trying to die on
tomorrow might be gone and have to fly alone
just above the radars like, right inside the zone
