To be lost
So untold
Nobody knows
What the future holds
Of what is left, of what we know
So get lost, and get going

Raise your hands to the sky
For the reason is to fly

From dust to horizon
Where the sun meets Jah ocean
From dust to horizon
We got that magical potion

Breath it in so deep
You gotta search for the answers in between
Between those golden lines
Of what is right
And what is wrong
It's a picture painted in this song

For the reason is, reason is, reason is to fly (repeat)

Magical Potion

Are you kidding me? You never meant for me to be the one they see,  
Up in court, on the stand, put the spotlight all on me.  
Every word you speak is twisted, you’ve been running all the schemes,  
I was holding back the fire, now I’m burning through your dreams.
Heartless, cruel, manipulator, every breath another lie,  
Play the victim for the crowd, when you’re poison in disguise.  
I was quiet, I was patient, now I’m tearing down your stage,  
All that gaslight that you fed me turned to gasoline and rage.
Pre‑Chorus (half‑sung)
You’re not a man, just a wannabe,  
Hiding behind every mask they see.  
All of your stories, all your power,  
Fall apart when you face the mirror, coward.
Chorus (dance hook)
I was blind, now I see you in the strobe light,  
Every bruise, every scar in the blacklight.  
All your games, all the guilt that you put on me,  
I’m dancing on your lies, this is my testimony.
I was blind, now I see you in the strobe light,  
Hands up, let it burn through the midnight.  
All your games, all the chains that you put on me,  
I’m breaking on the drop, this is my testimony.
Verse 2 (rap)
You’re dumber than you look, and your boy’s just a clone of your worst,  
Two minutes in the dark, that’s your peak, that’s your curse.  
Get aggressive when I’m asking you to call me, say my name,  
You’re so fragile at your core, but you’re fronting like you’re flame.
I hate your roommate, he a bitch, thinks he some kind of star,  
You, your ex, all your drama just revolving ’round a scar.  
Two wannabe kids that your families won’t claim,  
Makes sense I never want you, never taking on your name.
Pre‑Chorus 2 (half‑sung)
You’re not a man, just a pretender to me,  
All of your threats sound small when I’m free.  
Every lie you wrapped around my mouth,  
Fades out when the beat drops and I call you out.
Breakdown (spoken / melodic)
You’re like a houseboy for the shadows, selling bits of soul for touch,  
I had no choices when you threw me down, when your hands became too much.  
I was begging, I was pleading , watching you shrink where you stood,  
You’re ugly inside and out, and I’m done pretending you’re good.
Drop (instrumental + chant)
(Beat hits, bass & synth lead)  
Chant:  
“You’re not a man” – hey!  
“I’m done with you” – hey!  
“You’re not a man” – hey!  
“I’m done with you” – hey!
Outro (melodic)
I don’t even know why I ever liked you, why the mystery pulled me so deep,  
By the time I saw the truth in your face, it was too late to keep.  
Now the lights are all upon you and the crowd can finally see,  
You can’t hurt me anymore… I’m free
