I walked through the sprinklers because I was focused on something bigger a beautiful subject, you're the matter floating in all of the empty spaces in between every beat that your heart dances, play a song for me.
& I'll forgive you, even if you're not sorry.
but I think you were upset with me, because I spend most of my time in a daze and I was too stuck on trying to get you to explain to me who doesn't have a fucking drug problem these days.
but you were too stuck in your ways.
& if we treated it like my mind was heavy
& if I prayed how long would it take for my hands to be holy.
breathe psalms into my palms
speak fire into the void that we all ignore, tell me that the shore is just over the horizon.
& that we all might be ok.
But I'm constantly changing & hurting myself, realizing that we're not fine and that the society that we want to see on fire has been inside of us the whole time & in my mind
it's like a perfect painting, brought together by you & me
but drawn over & crossed out repeatedly
this is for us.
drinking to drown out another day until Friday
but I'm not scared anymore, because I think I understand
I have a 40oz in both hands & my backpack is full of everything I couldn't carry
yeah, man its really fucking scary, but you just got to pave right on through or else this won't ever mean anything to you.
That feel'n that one of us is lying, even if its just me laying down to rest.
& that feeling, that you feel deep down inside your chest
you gotta exhale.
