If I kill it I feel like that’d be too nice of me
Just because I suffered doesn’t mean that I think they should too
But I’m only human, who knows what I’ll do?
(You know what I’ll do, you know what I’m going through)
I’m the prince
I pulled it out the stone, therefore I exist
I’m sorry for the texts that I miss
I’m sorry for the friendships that I miss
I was busy, I was trying not to kill

What’s the problem? let us know
Contradictions aren’t allowed we can not let no body go
Brightest stories ever written in the darkest ink I own
I could end the suffering but that might hit too close to home
I mean it’s true
What’s my problems to someone I never knew
It’s old to me, but all for them, I’ll make it new
I’ve heard the tales bout the grounds I’m stepping through
There's nothing special bout my life but just for now it’ll have to do

If I kill it I feel like that’d be too nice of me
Just because I suffered doesn’t mean that I think they should too
But I’m only human, who knows what I’ll do?
(You know what I’ll do, you know what I’m going through)
I’m the prince
I pulled it out the stone, therefore I exist
I’m sorry for the texts that I miss
I’m sorry for the friendships that I miss
I was busy, I was trying not to kill

Who sits atop it isolated?
Who sits as cold as life, who makes decisions this impatient?
There’s lots of notes that I’ve played perhaps it’s time I face it
Who’s this, I’m asking? the one I’ve alienated...
The stage is set, it hurts to partake in truth
I’m mourning for someone I never knew
Round of applause this one is all for you
I became the prince that they needed me to 

I’m the prince
I pulled it out the stone, therefore I exist
I’m sorry for the texts that I miss
I’m sorry for the friendships that I miss
I was busy, I was trying not to kill
If I kill it I feel like that’d be too nice of me
Just because I suffered doesn’t mean that I think they should too
But I’m only human, who knows what I’ll do?
(You know what I’ll do, you know what I’m going through)
I’m the prince

It’s said, you get exactly what you want most
Well I guess I got exactly what I asked for
Old thoughts but I’m stepping in the new door
Wish that I knew more
But I can’t hide, it’s closing again
Cold outside, It’s winter again

I wish that I could relate to the things that you say, or pretend anyway
I’ve been losing my way, which is harsh but it’s true
Don’t lose yourself doing whatever you do
Be careful with your wish, cause that thing just might exist
We’re playing with truth and dare and the truth is you might miss
The snow has been coming down and the doors are all closed
The windows are all froze
See life through the peep hole

It’s said, you get exactly what you want most
Well I guess I got exactly what I asked for
Old thoughts but I’m stepping in the new door
Wish that I knew more
But I can’t hide, it’s closing again
Cold outside, It’s winter again
 
It’s all talk and no use
It’s encroaching its way through the vines
One light, it’s all blue
How can this change more than my mood?
Warm blood but my hands are too cold
And the knight gets too old, even older
But it’s never over

It’s said, you get exactly what you want most
Well I guess I got exactly what I asked for
Old thoughts but I’m stepping in the new door
Wish that I knew more
But I can’t hide, it’s closing again
Cold outside, It’s winter again

Once in a life time? I like my chances
Prorsum always, knights and lances
Wait till you're dead to start giving it up
There is no after, we’re living up it
Once in a life time? I like my chances
Prorsum always, knights and lances
Wait till you're dead to start giving it up
There is no after, we’re living up it

Are you stupid or what? I’ll make an assumption
Turn my whole life into a private function
Real life moments seeing this stuff
You get what you want If you need it enough
I’ve decided my story will be about victory
Step on a devil that don’t mean shit to me
Kill all pretenders I’ll try something new
The flames so hot that it’s actually blue
One story about victory
One small man and his will to win
One nobody and his chance
One nobody that you’ve never met
One somebody you can’t forget
One nobody who changed himself so in a way everything’s changed

Once in a life time? I like my chances
Prorsum always, knights and lances
Wait till you're dead to start giving it up
There is no after, we’re living up it
Once in a life time? I like my chances
Prorsum always, knights and lances
Wait till you're dead to start giving it up
There is no after, we’re living up it

Real grove shit what’s up goes down
No ig, I’m I.G. right now
Tapped with the roots that’s under the ground
So I keep my head high when I’m walking around
No words needed we knock on wood
The world's everything that you wish you would
Wait too long and you’ll wish you could
Never did what’s good, I just did what I should
They said live your life and wait till you're dead
Get judged after everything’s been said
Long ass story's gonna get read
But I’m here right now judge that instead
Never been you but I’m getting the gist
Black fletching go past like mist
If I send an arrow it never gets missed
How’s chivalry dead if we exist?

Once in a life time? I like my chances
Prorsum always, knights and lances
Wait till you're dead to start giving it up
There is no after, we’re living up it
Once in a life time? I like my chances
Prorsum always, knights and lances
Wait till you're dead to start giving it up
There is no after, we’re living up it

[We're alive right now, we're living it up
We're alive right now, we're living it up
We're alive right now... we're, we're]

And the winner’s me you dummy
Live or live, I made a choice
Fog is thick, the lights are dim, all I followed was a voice
There’s a sorrow to these stones
There’s a story to this gate
There’s a reason I am who I am and they think it’s too late

Another sorry soul contemplating doing what I do
Let me be the first to tell you just be careful what you choose
When the difficulty happens I saw how quick they all froze
Don’t you call yourself a stepper if you ain’t planted a rose
In the grey damp alley where the feeling's always near
Where the candles and the stale air are all that you can hear
If you see the same puddle it means that you’re getting close
It was feeling like I don’t exist that I loved the most
Detective Dion on the case, I’ll be the first to solve it all
Took my book and all my ink but I’m still writing on the wall
Rust and mist, it tried to turn my life into a living gaol
Me and Shin were back to back and it was us against the Vael

And the winner’s us you dummy
Live or live, we made a choice
Fog is thick, the lights are dim, all we followed was a voice
There’s a sorrow to these stones
There’s a story to this gate
There’s a reason I am who I am and they think it’s too late

You’re feeling sorry for yourself and I feel sorry for you too
But in this life it's not about what you feel, it’s about what you do
If I tell you all the secrets you become one of my kin
Can you see the gate within the puddle? yeah we’re jumping in
My whole life’s a contradiction, I should be the one that’s dead
I was too stuck in my head, I couldn’t get outta my bed
Yon of Vael, rain or hail, I’m the one who made it out
Couldn’t let my story be defeat that’s what living's about
The nights when it felt like the only option was to wait and hide
Even when you live your life and all it felt like was you lied
Not to live would go against the codes that I chose to abide
All my tombstone's gonna say is “Here lies Dion” And “He tried.”

And the winner’s me you dummy
Live or live, I made a choice
Fog is thick, the lights are dim, all I followed was a voice
There’s a sorrow to these stones
There’s a story to this gate
There’s a reason I am who I am and they think it’s too late

On the ships, wearing sails
Tried to change our course but it was to no avail
They almost OD’d… I O3’d
The building has been built, the procession must proceed
It's inevitable I mean
High battlements? You should see the stakes
They wanna go to war? well we’ll meet em at the gates
I’ve given everything I guess this is what it takes
The heraldry has one tree and its fended off the snakes

Simplest life, that’s all that I lead
I’ll never see the shade but I still will sow the seed
The ending draws near can’t you smell it on the breeze
Acceptance is a burden that I’ve learnt I want to need
The hours turn to weeks, the strong become the weak
We’re at the town square and they’ve come to see me speak
Tree roots, engraved into my palms
They know me everywhere I go it’s like my coat of arms

On the ships, wearing sails
Tried to change our course but it was to no avail
They almost OD’d… I O3’d
The building has been built, the procession must proceed
It's inevitable I mean
High battlements? You should see the stakes
They wanna go to war? well we’ll meet em at the gates
I’ve given everything I guess this is what it takes
The heraldry has one tree and its fended off the snakes

Just take a breath, who knows what happens next
I promise to protect you till there’s metal in my chest
Till where that fight happened has been washed away by rain
Created from the ground, so in the ground I shall remain
I’m from a place where the paintings never dry
The doves are bringing peace but the Crows will never lie
I'd rather die knowing that the grapes have become soured
The truth is there is nothing much worse than a coward

On the ships, wearing sails
Tried to change our course but it was to no avail
They almost OD’d… I O3’d
The building has been built, the procession must proceed
It's inevitable I mean
High battlements? You should see the stakes
They wanna go to war? well we’ll meet em at the gates
I’ve given everything I guess this is what it takes
The heraldry has one tree and it’s fended off the snakes

I don’t want your roses, I’ve been tending to my garden
Keep on begging for a reason, but you need to beg my pardon
All this sacrilege I witness, it’s no wonder I’m astounded
All this deviation from it, don’t you know where it was founded ?
I don’t want your roses, I grow my own in the garden
Keep on begging for a reason, but you need to beg my pardon
All this being scared for nothing, may as well be for scared for something
All this hoarding and protecting time to open up and give and give and...

Put the destination first and that’s all you’ll ever get
This was all just an idea but that’s so easy to forget
All the hate gets weeded out and through the Grove you’ll grow the truth
Ofc I still rock my TNs I can’t forget bout my roots
Back when we had no money to even catch the train
I got opal on me now tell them coppers check my chain
There’s no therapy for us but we've been working all the same
There’s no respite here for us so we’ve walking through the rain

I don’t want your roses, I’ve been tending to my garden
Keep on begging for a reason, but you need to beg my pardon
All this sacrilege I witness, it’s no wonder I’m astounded
All this deviation from it, don’t you know where it was founded ?
I don’t want your roses, I grow my own in the garden
Keep on begging for a reason, but you need to beg my pardon
All this being scared for nothing, may as well be for scared for something
All this hoarding and protecting time to open up and give and give and...

You’ve been looking for the path and didn’t realise you were on it
They asked who was on the track and didn’t realise we were on it
Im like if the fountain’s to the east then I’m what’s left of it
That one hill looks beautiful but would you put your death on it ?
Would you put your life on it? Intertwine your life with it?
Quick decisions to be made happens in less than a minute
Do you really have to ask me? You know me.. the sacrificer
I’ve been looking at my life, I think I’ve earnt the title Lifer 

I don’t want your roses, I’ve been tending to my garden
Keep on begging for a reason, but you need to beg my pardon
All this sacrilege I witness, it’s no wonder I’m astounded
All this deviation from it, don’t you know where it was founded ?
I don’t want your roses, I grow my own in the garden
Keep on begging for a reason, but you need to beg my pardon
All this being scared for nothing, may as well be for scared for something

There’s nothing new under the sun that hasn’t already been said
There’s nothing wrong in the acceptance that you’ve already been dead
“How heavy is it? how heavy is it?” don’t act like you forget
You can smile with the rest, let the truths be said in jest
There’s nothing new about disdain, but novelty still has its place
New Vael with the wedding gown and it’s still covering my face
New truth isn’t really new, but I won’t tell if you don’t either
Nothing disrespectful either, they’re still following the leader
I’ve been offered this and that, but none of that was that appealing
When they ask how long until I tour? I’m like “I know the feeling...”
I don’t worry bout the end or the feeling of the scythe
That’s not death knocking at the door my Crow, that’s probably life
Nothing new about a death but mine or yours might carry weight
Some say they can change their lives, and others say they’re bound to fate
Either way I like illusions, so I’ll stand here at the gate
So I’ll stand here in indifference just in case it opens up
“Nothing new under the sun”… but all I’m seeing is the moon
It’s one a.m. right now for me, and for Crow it’s probably noon
Something strange did happen too, I saw the Fountain in the West
I’m not saying I saw it first, I’m just saying I saw it best
How? How could there not be one single thing that’s new?
Wear the Vael, tell me if that’s something someone else can do?
Check your heart, is there something you still think you can go through?
There’s your proof, that there’s something yet to do
That there’s something new for you
Yesterday there was a tragedy I guess
No more Vael only Vaeled, Only I could do the rest
Can’t end what’s already ended but I did my best
Who would love and who would die? I was down to take the test
Feel the pull, it’s the middle of the sun
It’s like being someone’s son
It’s experiencing fun
It’s that never there whisper that keeps beating like a drum
It’s that secret that you’re in on, even if there isn’t one
It’s the sacred, it’s the sense the you belong even with trees  
There’s a feeling on the breeze, that you feel and no one sees
It’s still winning even when it feels like everything should fail
It’s a moment (never pale), I call going through the Vael

Can’t, can’t sleep
All I pray for is the end of the week
All I need is for you not to speak
In this tunnel that I’ll never get to leave
Can’t, can’t sleep
Have you ever felt the cold therein
It’s a battle that I just can’t win
Another long day I put it in the bin

You can run and run away
But you take that with you anyway
You’ll forget and wait and wait and wait
But it all comes back and it all comes back no matter what
Close my eyes
But it finds its way to my mind
Hear the rain drops falling outside
Until it’s finally…(Shh) goodnight

Can’t, can’t sleep
All I pray for is the end of the week
All I need is for you not to speak
In this tunnel that I’ll never get to leave
Can’t, can’t sleep
Have you ever felt the cold therein
It’s a battle that I just can’t win
Another long day I put it in the bin

The sky’s sinking in, it spins in a spiral
Attempts at avoiding the things that are vital
The heart in my chest almost jumps out my ribs
There’s so much to forget I forgot to forgive
It’s torture
It’s easier to walk on water
Send the shadow over me if you might
All I wait for is… goodnight

Can’t, can’t sleep
All I pray for is the end of the week
All I need is for you not to speak
In this tunnel that I’ll never get to leave
Can’t, can’t sleep
Have you ever felt the cold therein
It’s a battle that I just can’t win
Another long day I put it in the bin

And The Winner Is... (prod. Shinjin)
