Lyrics:


This life goes fast
Let tonight go slow
Unknown paths
All these winding roads
We gon’ fight to the death
Out on tightening ropes
Rat race, cat chase
They're recycling souls
Ain’t a thing gon’ last
Once this time grab hold
Stamp it at the recap
Watch it unravel
Shaking at the kneecap
But now you’re unshackled
Are you brave enough to be there
When things go cold
Or you only seeing my cup
When it overflows
Or you only needed my love
When it didn’t show
Strip me of my sunlight
How am I supposed to grow
Fast pass, damn, I can’t go at it alone

And I would but this
Dark cloud overhead
It follows everywhere I go
Dark signs, but I won’t listen
Won’t be what I manifest
Heart eyes keep me lifted
Imma shine, be the light
Through this darkness
I’m always trying to fight against
In the twilight, you tried to clear it off
It’s like you opened up the board
Refused to play the turn
I’m in the grave-shift, up late working
Feel my fate lurking
Mages burning sage
To eliminate the page-turning
Storybook rhymes in my head
Throw myself a raft in my age
Making sure these thoughts
Stay surfaced, cave lurking
Not a phase, hop up in the radio waves
Because we on the way
I can’t even see you off
I can only see you in the dark
And now I can’t even see with my heart
All this blood on my hand
While you bleed yours
I don’t really understand
Why you need more
Tryin’ to stick to the plan
Tryin’ to keep course
It’s lookin’ different on the map
But I’ll see it soon
I’m hydraulic with the peer pressure
I won’t fall in when things settle in

This life goes fast
Let tonight go slow
Unknown paths
All these winding roads
We gon’ fight to the death
Out on tightening ropes
Rat race, cat chase
They're recycling souls
Ain’t a thing gon’ last
Once this time grab hold
Stamp it at the recap
Watch it unravel
Shaking at the kneecap
But now you’re unshackled
Are you brave enough to be there
When things go cold
Or you only seeing my cup
When it overflows
Or you only needed my love
When it didn’t show
Strip me of my sunlight
How am I supposed to grow
Fast pass, damn, I can’t go at it alone
