Ekho the Ethereal - Shattering Perspective

I got people asking what I'm writing for 
And to no surprise, this is what I'm out here dying for
I'm a mouse shoving his lil prick in a lion's paw
I only just got here, so what are you crying for
Now it's such a nice place everyone wants to move Bris
But I remember it 20 years back when it was all shit
Now I ain't a gangster, and I don't move bits
But I grew up on the streets so I know how that cold hits
Yeah, I live a life that's got you posh kids all pondering
You wanna talk about it but I leave wondering
This area's off-limits but I still wandered in
And went n fucked that bitch from the conjuring
Some lil prick thinks he can smack up my girl mate like he had suttin to prove
My boy went on a hunt cuz he's a cunt with nothing to do
When he finally found him, he beat him till he was black and blue
Checkered his face, King to F4, you're fucking move

Cuz I seen it I've been to hell and back
Exited through the gift shop and robbed the whole gaff
I see people sitting pretty and I want in on that
My futures golden, and you know I'm taking that
Cuz I seen it I've been to hell and back
Exited through the gift shop and robbed the whole gaff
I see people sitting pretty and I want in on that
My future golden, so you know I'm taking that
 

We can't see eye to eye 
If you lived that silver life
While I sat and watched people die
And sleeping with demons in the night
I'm piss poor and I can't afford the pot to piss in 
I'm fresh out the door with my dick still dripping
And if you met me back when my sanity went missing 
Then you probably got high off the fumes coming out of my kitchen
I'm out here drifting living that  driven busybody life
I'm rolling in on a ocean breeze I'm all itching like
To set down a legacy to keep my twitch alive 
And hope that one day I can make all that paper light
If you want me gone then pull the trigger fam 
If you wanna kidnap me, You're gonna need a bigger van
Cuz I'm bringing my whole past, 
A freshly licked arse, half bag of glass
Bruv, I'm 5'7 I can never be the bigger man
And life has gotten mad still
A sociopathic ex and she's set to kill
I only told her I don't love you like is this twat real?
She went insane and I caught the blame talk about a bad deal

So I'm Reppin my ends, south of the river in beddy
I see   it all coming, I gotta keep it steady
A suitcase full of jam, peanut butter, and jelly
I'm here, nowhere and everywhere, and you ain't ready

Hell n Back

Ekho the Ethereal - Come With Me (Prod. Yung Nab)

If only you could listen
You continue to grow distant
Because of something deep missing
Caught between real and dispotision
Angels weep disappointed tears, 
Lost in a mist of fears
The void is close, forever near
Another beginning to a blood soaked year
The soilders were selected at random
A sea of drowned voices sing the anthem
Those below bicker and throw tantrums
Cuz their held to their own ransoms
Theres a part of you that feels out of sync
You're not as vacant as you may think
You're never alone, you must visualise the link
Cuz Death is my other half 
And she refills my ink
We've see pain too much to hide
I know how it feels to be dead yet somehow alive
Yearning for another life
Belonging to the other side
Remember it's human nature 
To naturally survive

So I write 
The sound of a melody pure 
Played from a memory born
Away from the pain so sore
Such is my Lullaby at Dawn
The sound of a melody pure 
Played from a memory born
Away from the pain so sore
Such is my Lullaby at Dawn

My lungs filled, I speak with fire
My mind over electrified and wired
I cannot lay to dream yet I am so tried
Others fall pray to sadness I use it to inspire
Because I have become what I fear
I must protect those I hold dear
And for myself I do not shed a tear
When I'm stood in a cold bathroom staring in the mirr-
-Or
Do I scream make this year yours
Or do I try to stay sincere
I claw at my arms and throat try make it clear
I ain't me or you, it's just "we're"
Because It's weird
Because it's us
We turned on each other poised by lust
Our skulls have begun to age and rust
Till a morning spring wind turns us to dust
They say you die twice
Once when you're soul leaves for the light
And once more, on a cold December night 
When your name is mentioned for the last time
But you remain immortalised in the hearts
Of those that you saved from falling apart
You burdened yourself so you gave them a head start 
A broken mind to me is a work of art
You, the most important person, do not hang your head in sorrow
Being proud isn't arrogant, nor does it make you hollow
Do not feel ashamed to ask for help or borrow
So take my hand, my dear friend, and I'll take you to tomorrow

So I'll write
The sound of a melody pure 
Played from a memory born
Away from the pain so sore
Such is my Lullaby at Dawn
The sound of a melody pure 
Played from a memory born
Away from the pain so sore
Such is my Lullaby at Dawn
