Shifting Stones

idk yet

I'm feeling so hollow
Like the pity I swallow
Like darkness is inches away
And I'm breathing in sorrow

And I'm done with this fight
And I'm done hiding it
I've had a poison in my veins
And I'm done riding

That's me being frozen
To hell with corrosion
I'm done being broken
By my own erosion
I'm so done giving up
To these phantom voices
I've had a serpent in my skull
And he's eating my choices
I've had a serpent in my skull
And he's eating my choices

I'm sick of feeling whips crackling my spine
I'm sick of feeling drained like I'm bleeding time
It's like I've got a cage and I'm locked inside
Man, I'm screaming, but I can't even find the light

I'm done sinking, oh, can I break it or not?
How many of them fake smiles do I got?
How many more nights will I waste in my head
Full of rage at myself like I'm racing to dead

Well, this is me ripping myself from the grave
This is a key for a prisoner's cage
This is my war to reclaim what I made
I'm coming for blood like my anger's a blade
Yeah, I'm just a monster in chains
I'm like a spark in the dark trying to break from the pain
I've been given these scars of mine
And if that's not enough, man, then what kind of life is mine?

That's me being frozen
To hell with corrosion
I'm done being broken
By my own erosion
I'm so done giving up
To these phantom voices
I've had a serpent in my skull
And he's eating my choices
I've had a serpent in my skull
And he's eating my choices

I see the serpent now as clear as bone and teeth
I see it crawling through my thoughts
Feeding on what I could fear to keep me beneath
I see the serpent now as clear as you and me
Maybe it's a lie to be free
But I see truth
So let's get venom off these fangs
Alright!

That's me being frozen
To hell with corrosion
I'm done being broken
By my own erosion
I'm so done giving up
To these phantom voices
I've had a serpent in my skull
And he's eating my choices
I've had a serpent in my skull
And he's eating my choices

Serpent In My Skull

We never looked away
Oh, we never looked away
We never looked away
Oh, we never looked away

I see the world through a flickerin’ screen
Lord, each headline's another bad dream
“Man down in Memphis,” “Flood took the town”
“Fire in the hills, burned the whole place down”
Oh, that’s how they sell it
Trouble on the rise
It ain’t no fun 
'Til someone dies

I'm watchin' the world burn, sittin' on the sideline
Safe in my chair while the stories unwind
Watchin' the world burn, watchin' the flames climb
Lord, it’s the way that we’ve been made to survive

We never looked away
Oh, we never looked away
We never looked away

They’re sellin’ us sorrow, we buy it in spades
Gotta feed that hunger 'fore it fades away
Blood hits the dirt, tears hit the sky
Mama holds her baby, whisperin', "Why?"
Still I keep watchin’
Something ain’t whole
A hunger for horror
Food for the soul

Watchin' the world burn, hands in my lap
Feeding on fear ‘til we fall through the cracks
Watchin’ the world burn, screen like a lifeline
Lord, it's the only way we know to survive

We never looked away
Oh, we never looked away
We never looked away
Oh, we never looked away
We never looked away

Bullets through the churchyard, drums on the wind
We wear pretty faces, but the wild seeps in
Turn your eyes, but the smoke fills your lungs
We’re wolves in the shadows, waitin’ for the sun

Waitin’ for the sun
Waitin’ for the sun
Waitin’ for the sun

Watchin' the world burn, can't look away
Safe in my chair as the skies go gray
Watchin’ the world burn, no tears left to cry
Lord, it’s the only way we’ve learned to survive

We never looked away
Oh, we never looked away
We never looked away
Oh, we never looked away

Never Looked Away

I’ve been running through the dust and heat
Chased by the memory of defeat
Worn down and incomplete
But I still hear the rustle in the trees
Telling me how to believe
In something I can’t see

‘Cause I’ve been feeling bruised up
Shut in, soul rough, weighed by guilt
Just tryna find a clear road, deep breath
No script, just what's left
Pushing through the pain, new dawn, new step
No rest, no rest, no rest

I’m just holding on to pieces in a storm that
Broke me wide and raw
Broke me wide and raw
Broke me wide and raw
I’m just holding on to pieces in a storm

Truth bleeds in rooms where light won’t fall
Hunger shows its teeth behind these walls
But I won’t let them crawl
I built my will from a stubborn head
Said all the prayers I never said
To stand where angels bled
To stand where angels bled

My life is cut from the marrow, not a borrowed frame
Dodged the arrows in the tarot, every card aflame
Made a gospel from the gravel, rose above the shame
Every step’s a cipher—puzzle in the pouring rain

Caught between the myth and the chemical
Felt time split like a syllable
Stacked doubts in a tower of silence so cynical
But I cracked codes in the quiet, now I’m biblical

‘Cause I’ve been feeling closed in
Past spent, boxed in, chasing peace
Just tryna find a clean start, no mask
New spark, break glass
Moving from the fallout, new dawn, new path
At last, at last, at last

I’m just holding on to pieces in a storm that
Broke me wide and raw
Broke me wide and raw
Broke me wide and raw
I’m just holding on to pieces in a storm

We fight, we fall, we rise again
From smoke and stone, we find our wind
The cost was deep, the road was long
But now we breathe, we're strong




Wide And Raw

I’ve been a smudge on plastered stone
I've been the fracture, been the bone
I've tried to be the man you needed me to be
But I cracked, I veered, slipped off that track
Left you waiting when I swore I'd come back
I'm searching for a version of myself that's free
I lied. I tried. I broke my word.
I disappeared. Asked to be heard.
I ran. I stayed. I lost the thread.
I'm still here. Still not dead.

And if I've hurt you, if I've let you down
Know I'm still here, trying to figure this shit out

Like a stone that's trying to float
Like a match that sparks but won't ignite
I've been dragged around by every wind
But I'm still reaching for what feels like light
And for what I done I can't attone
But I swear I'm going to find my way
Find my way back
Find my way back home

I stood outside your life before
A crown misplaced on ground I can't restore
I've played both sides of the coin that life could flip
The higher that I climb, the more I slip
The fall feels harder every time
I chased the end and overlooked the trip.

Yeah, I've been living in the gray space, chasing grace in the wrong place
Trying to find my own face in a crowd full of mistakes
I was running from the truth, call it youth, call it ruthless
Now I'm rooted in the proof that I'm human, not a blueprint
See, I built these walls myself, yeah, the architect of my own hell
Stored my pain up on a shelf where the stories never tell themselves
I was lost inside the noise, making choices with no voice
Now I'm poised to rejoin, rediscover what's destroyed
They say freedom ain't free, but the devil came for me
I'm the lock, I'm the key, I'm the bird, I'm the wire, I'm the tree
Fast-living, self-imprisoned, tunnel vision was my mission
Now I'm switching my position, making peace with my condition

And if you're listening, if you still care
I'm right here in the wreckage, I'm still there

Like iron asking water for a lift
Like flint that sparks but never splits
I've been blown around with the wind
But I'm still fighting for the hell of it

And for what I done I cant attone
But I swear I'm going to find my way
Find my way back, 
Find my way back home
Find my way back home

Find My Way Back

Half my time is borrowed
Half my time is mine
Half my days are narrow
Half I walk the line
One foot in the gospel
One foot in the weeds
Sometimes I catch the fever
Other times I bleed

In between tethered, and torn at the seam
In between thunder, and burning kerosene
In between saved, and still chasing the dream
In between open sky, and the ghost unseen
In between, yeah

I’ve been raised on silence
I’ve been schooled in storms
Cut my teeth on fences
Slept in open barns
Some nights I’m a firelight
Some nights I’m a fuse
Some days I’m the question
Most days I’m the proof

I’ve walked the wire with desire tryna cauterize doubt,
Fought the choir in the fire when my faith burned out.
I’m the sermon and the serpent when the storms come down
Half a hand and half the iron in a rust-belt town
I keep a tally of every scar like a prisoners wall
See the cracks in every pact, then I buried it all
I’m in the gap between the fact and the shape of my sin
Yeah, I’ve been broke, but being broken’s where real changes begin
So let the dust keep a score of the places I’ve been
Let the wind take the win for every loss I spin
I’m in between the in-between. The heaven and the hell
A little hoarse in the throat, but you can't tell

oh, oh, oh, oh Lord

In between tethered, and torn at the seam
In between thunder, and burning kerosene
In between saved, and still chasing the dream
In between open sky, and the ghost unseen
In between, yeah

Still a little bit in between
Yeah, in between
Still a little bit in between

In Between
