Lyrics

[Verse 1] If you diagram the mind of the son of man You'll probably find the Son of Sam defined in a grain of sand Through the hourglass at last, your power last so fast Through the grass, [?] slither without a mask or mirror Hysteria not as scary as vanity Varied when humble, you'll cease to stumble after burying vanity Every calamity actually brilliance With every start, my [?] enters the hearts of millions I'm building a heaven ceiling with you a sand castle The land has to replenish the finished battle if Men are are from Mars, I'm from a distant star Where cars fly and Bob Marley's alive Hardly I strive to open eyes to view terrain Now survive with you to blame, you try to do the same See I'll survive with you to blame and you try to do the same [Refrain] If you haven't noticed, the focus has shifted Once again it seems the locust swarmed on the gifted Now the harvest is lost, what a cost to pay Now we know tomorrow's not promised today [Verse 2] I went from psychotic to seraphim, try again To bury legacy draped in leviathan Took a nap in the lions den, I cringe at the sight of them Tickled a lion's chin and lost a limb I binge on friends and vitamins for nourishment Basking in brisk ambiguity, it's not new to me but I'm flourishing As if face petaled with crimson If each voice in my head would take its turn, I'd try and listen Died when I cried attention droplets, kept company The faces change and the names are overwhelming Kept in touch with senses, you know, the taste and smelling Psycho-satire reflecting in an admire respective I'm only conscious ninety percent of the time The other ten percent is spent inventing memories to pacify Satisfies the death of desire, I can't help it To hear the truth, hand me a felt tip Marker, spark bliss with one flick of a locust wing tip If you haven't noticed my route is scenic It's the road less traveled, for the envelope pushers, horizon divers, the nine livers of rhyme [?] [Verse 3] I wanna be the reflection staring back with illiquidated language To show you the true meaning of anguish Never mind what my name is, my aim is divinity Surprise, to love and die is my holy trinity How much I give is disguised in how much you give me 'cause you can't fill the cup if the jug is empty And I can only fill the flood if the dam breaks up And they'll only hear my voice if the world wakes up Not like I have a choice in how your face is made up I just wanna make sure my mask smiles and my pants stay up See you'll never know the dancing 'til your feet start to move That's why I go with every verse like I got something to prove Like no one's listening but you, I've got a world to reach The way I see it, they won't learn if I don't teach So I'll go person by person and lesson by lesson Take notes, I wanna see hands raised when i ask questions [Refrain] If you haven't noticed, the focus has shifted Once again it seems the locust swarmed on the gifted Now the harvest is lost, what a cost to pay Now we know tomorrow's not promised today
