Until the end of time
What fate decides
For the people under the sun 
its will is guide
But yours n mine
Define the smoking gun



Sometimes in the short life we livin’ 
we overlook the little things 
so overwhelmingly overworked 
we only get older, 
Heres the line time for you to get in
And stay in order 
until  our remaining years are over and 
we realize we’ve been overlooking the overload, 
overly stressed too early 
Is stress overflowing over our chest 
we overlook so many little things 
we been too busy to stop n smell the flowers we just run em over 
the overkill of humanity can you smell the odour?
Or am I insane forever?
 i can tell you one thing, forever doesn’t last forever.
One day there will be no more 
we’ll be too old and decrepit, 
stubborn in our ways 
never be able to change our perception 
out of breath forevermore in this deception.
The days come with torn letters to mourn 
when I rest in peace they’ll say a few words 
as i become an omen 
the last thing people will say to me is amen. 
Oh man
I don’t wanna go out like that. 
Woes and damage God damn 

Until the end of time
What fate decides
For the people under the sun 
its will is guide
But yours n mine
Define the smoking gun
Life is the light Earth is the prism 
We are the colour 
that’s why 

we’re called human

Yea yea

is this gods sole plan? 
do we have a soul at all? 
cuz i feel like spirit was broken n stolen 
for us to grow it 
reincarnated a billion years over 
We just dont know it

Until the end of time
What fate decides
For the people under the sun 
its will is guide
But yours n mine
Define the smoking gun
Life is the light Earth is the prism 
We are the colour 
that’s why 

we’re called human

Yea yea

Until the end of time
We’re called humans

Yea yea

when we leave this planet 
and we look at our essence in 3rd person when we can hold it 
through the eyes of chthonic 
making our bed. the threads woven
Can you afford to take ownership 
over all your good deeds, 
misleads, misfortune and misdeeds?  
Paying with our lives to live in a dream, 
yet cant afford the price
The supreme scheme regime 
shouting with our most extreme screams 
in hopes anyone can hear our cries 
To fall on deaf ears for years  
Takes a toll on our self esteem and pride.

Until the end of time
What fate decides
For the people under the sun 
its will is guide
But yours n mine
Define the smoking gun

Life is the light Earth is the prism 
We are the colour 
that’s why 

we’re called human

Yea yea

Been dating destiny all my life. 
Our relationship is more than platonic 
its solid
I’ve learned not to cut corners 
when we square off cuz i always end up going in circles 
For real tho i don’t wanna be over the hill hunched over jumpin hurtles what the fuck is the purpose when every turn you trip or get fucked over like flipped turtles. 
I guess that’s the point to see whose the realist but is it to be honest with morals or survival of the fittest 
Is it playing god for scientists to master the transfer of consciousness or genetically modify matter through eugenics and clone hybrids?
Is time a matter of essence? 
Does it matter like speedometers for reference? or just a matter of preference?
All of these questions nevertheless 
there’s no answer for this i guess 
it’s not for us to ask because once you’ve understood the matrix 
naturally what comes next 
is judgement to pass
 the multiverse  is unbiased it’s just the way it is.

Until the end of time (time time)
We are the colour 
that’s why 

we’re called human

Until the end of time
We are the colour 
that’s why 

we’re called humans

Until the end of time

The Colour
