Lyrics

[Hook] There hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down See there hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down [Verse 1] Language gets lost in the crowd these days Anguish hits often aloud so we pray My wingspan is spread, I'm in the clouds to stay Lord spray sun-rays accenting like clear blue sky I hear the wind whip as a dove flew by She looked me dead in my eye for what felt like a lifetime I dabbled in trying to find the guideline to existing Twisting finite reality into a timeline worth listing I've gone into performance without a mask on While you're adorned with the ornaments of a rap song The dove with love whispered passion in my ears, asking that my art always has lasting compassion so here we… Stand, one face to another I'm handing ear-mints to your spirit 'til you hear this bassline that smothers I've been walking too long, I need to sit down Two songs away from the day I can sit down and make my kids smile Two songs away from plummeting over the edge Holding my head, stay straight for the road ahead Life and death can't be simultaneous so don't speak when I comment Write breath instantaneous with the speed of a comet [Hook] There hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down See there hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down See there hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down See there hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down [Verse 2] Walking stick rotten, tryna keep an upright stance But I keep rocking, gotta see the smiles on the fans I've blossomed centerstage with a mic in my hand Colossal energy display [?] toxins in man It's shocking the way to expand horizons and bring sound waves Can't unravel the babble served to compile slaves Each day I lay to sleep and see that dove I hear her teach me, thinking "Love, you're almost home" Alone and fragile, gotta get a handle on my basket of dreams Before this candle burns out and my casket screams I need things tangible, the manual didn't mention this road My soul bleeds for artists who aren't whole They plant seeds of delusion in illusion I can't believe they're using my art to kill The lives of the alive and open-minded I hope science can't find a cure I'm too ill, I need to be home so I can sit still [Hook] There hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down See there hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down See there hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down See there hasn't been a day of home in a while now I've been walking too long, I need to sit down
