How often do we hold ourselves like we would a lover?
How often are we gentle to our soul as we cry a river?
How many times do we wish the very end upon ourselves
Knowing not what that would entail
I'll stop and take a breath,
This moment is all I need
To redeem myself
Life's a purgatory
That's what you always say
You was taught to compete
'Fore you saw the light of day Chemical swells of
Man-made anxieties
Making a living selling
Casual remedies
5 feet, 6 feet, 10 feet tall
No don't you build this wall
I don't intend to fix you
Just spend some time with you
Let me spend some time with you
This affiliation to all our afflictions
Making us lose a sense of direction
What even is the use of self-reflection
When we hate what we see in the mirror
How often do we hold ourselves like we would a lover?
How often are we gentle to our soul as we cry a river?
How many times do we wish the very end upon ourselves
Knowing not what that would entail
I'll stop and take a breath,
This moment is all I need
To redeem myself
