The Journey

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Skullkruncher13] What if I don't want Buddhahood? 'Cause I thought I did, but that duty took A lot out of me, back to the mountain, peace Jumpin' through those hoops didn't do me good Would it behoove me to indulge a bit? I come from nothing, so I want all of it You bet, any loophole in which I can fit This ego, I'll know it's time to split [Verse 2: Skullkruncher13] Tell me, what am I but an avatar? In his spitting image from which I'll depart 'Cause I'm picking this up, where he left the bar And he set it quite high (I'd call that a start) Every god up above, I'm beyond obeyin' The level I'm on, they are not, just sayin' I'm a fallen apple, and I landed far Actually, I'm a peach, pit against you all Took a tumble, turned into a somersault My head's in the clouds, thoughts are thunderbolts Y'all are primitive, I'm in my prime, mate Divinity isn't really my taste But the wine's great, like my kind, ape Give me enlightenment, and I'll find shade Started at rock bottom, up I came But, between us, I was stuck in a hard place Now decide with whom you'll side, take Mine, and I say that for thine sake, I Can make Erlang go third-eye blind These deities aren't in their right minds Got the mountain peak on my sightline 'Cause with each victory, does my fight climb Every time, same ending, kinda like rhymes But the ghosts of the past don't get to write mine [Refrain: Andrea Storm Kaden] If nothing will ever be enough (If nothing will ever be enough) I'll bet on you never giving up (I'll bet on you never giving up) [Verse 3: Skullkruncher13] I'll be getting every relic back Even if I gotta go to Hell and back Well, in fact, I'd relish that Because I would finally be in my element Among my demons, on a foul path As the Yaoguais swipe, I'll be down to smash When I land my strikes, I don't thrust, I thrash I'm a master of pillar, my build is stacked No matter my stance, unmatched I stand Seventy-two forms before I'm spent Perfected perception, all six I sense I'll admit, a bit impulsive, with a quick reflex Forget the standards Heaven held Don't help, they held me back Had to shed the shell of self That left me shackled to the past Celestial assholes would have me bound and gagged Unless I, what? Just get down and beg? Fuck that, call y'all my underlings 'Cause I'm far from done with the monkey bizz I'm running this, Buddha, you're pissed I know it 'cause you smell of it Just keep your fingers out of this Your future's bleak because I'll exist [Pre-Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden] If nothing will ever be enough (If nothing will ever be enough) I'll bet on you never giving up (I'll bet on you never giving up) [Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden] You are the rock that's not held down They reined you in, you took off the crown It matters not where you are now The path you walk is all that counts [Verse 4: Skullkruncher13] Chest thump, if you want some beef, I'll Slap ya like I'm bumpin' beats Steamroll anybody tryna touch this beast I'm known to treat my staff well, at least All as one, fall in, hominids Time for the gods to give us homages I'm the King Wukong, what you got on this? Lie to yourself, tell me I'm just a myth I'm not the one you want to spurn Heavens humbled, then to burn This sage ain't green no more, no sir With westward eyes, I'll not return Now monkey see, monkey learn Embrace my nature and walk this earth Embark upon a journey, that's on my terms Be it may, one day yours [Pre-Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden] If nothing will ever be enough (If nothing will ever be enough) I'll bet on you never giving up (I'll bet on you never giving up) [Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden] You are the rock that's not held down They reined you in, you took off the crown It matters not where you are now The path you walk is all that counts
