track #2 from the BLACK JAZZ EP by RLK WATKINS


RLK WATKINS - THE BEAST HAS ARRIVED

alright jon plays guitar on the second half of the song

always in a daze
take me home
always run away
take me home
no I’m not okay
take me home
please stay go away
take me home
heart break won’t shake
all alone
erase my face 
for your own good

better off alone
it’s good to know yourself
sing a song
pick your head up off your shoulders
maybe go outside 
and see the sunrise
take some time to think
know what you’re thinking
make sense of all 
which makes you feel like shit
throw it all away
crumble like paper
and before you do
think you should know better
don’t stay inside
and miss the good weather
don’t run and hide
you’re not so clever
whatever

take me home

it takes time
don't go following the line
it's in your mind
creativity is kind

how could you be so dumb and not see
you can be anything you wanna be
forget the pressures of society
finally free

in a bind
what you hurrying to find
it takes pride
don't go worrying this time

free your mind
creativity is kind
yeah it's alright
don't go following the line

how could you be so dumb and not see
you can be anything you wanna be
forget the pressures of society
finally free

u can be anything

how can you program me to stay
you can't get over me this way
weight on my shoulders I can't take
we're getting old and it's too late
you can't control everyone's fate

weight // fate

stating  my opinion
this  wasn’t my decision 
i’d take it all back
if I could
yeah she’s the got the vision
they’ll make the incision 
and I’ll be laying low now for good

no more conversations
if life is what you make 
don’t wanna be misunderstood 
no more vacations
if life is what you make it
then ’ll be laying low now for good

there’s a silver string 
keep on pulling
can’t remember things
when they’re foolin
there’s a part of me 
in the ocean
still feel my body on the shore
i’m not okay anymore
i’m not okay

if I take my life
will I reside here 
in this dark

with my head and my heart
still beating
still believing

u can be anything
