lyrics

Here I am, 38 years a man, 38 years to become this man,
And one day I'll be nothin' but footprints in the sand,
And I don't know if I can,
Carry on standin' in a land, I'm damned,
I keep offerin' you my hand,
It took an entire lifespan to understand that,
A million mistakes faced with a million billion trillion apologies, no difference makes,
You 'n' I are not the same, none of our synapse fire the same,
Segregate 'n' ignore the strange, there's too much change,
I'm on the last draft of the last page,
And it's almost over, time is tickin' out,
Now I see the smiles for what they are, they're just crooked mouths, Speakin' empty words from empty heads,
They're good at conjurin' nothin' 'n' castin' doubt,
Looks like, I'm a have to live this one out,
But now my body is failin' 'n' now my mind has begun ailin',
And I'm sick of this sickness 'n' all the nightmares I've created,
Dreams have faded, replaced with an emptiness that I hate,
But in that emptiness there is hate,
I remember its taste,

CHORUS
I got one goal, that's to crush all those who oppose,
Destroy them all with the flow of a dark soul evolved,
If I got one flaw, it's that I can't quit on this road,
I made my choice, silence my voice, this is all I live for
I'll never stop, until I drop,
Until my eyes roll back 'n' my body has begun to rot,
I'll stop, when I drop,
When my mind gives up 'n' the people have begun to watch,

Since 11 never wanted to be normal,
Now I'm 19 'n' rap has got a grip on me,
Now every bully who pulled me apart,
The pieces are collidin' 'n' ignitin' a spark, a fire in this dark heart,
My dreams are not comprehended by dreamers,
My dream is to have Reuben with a beamin' grin when I rap,
Steppin' in force with a wit that can rip so,
Takin' it back, breakin' the backs,
I'm realignin' the planets so I can hop, skip 'n' jump to Uranus,
And kick it, face it, the wordplay's just too far ahead,
Seems to be more up 'n' down than a see-saw,
This thesis leaves you in pieces, is he 19,
Birds 'n' the bees man, I'm breezin' past it,
I'm grafted from granite,
Honestly the feud between me 'n' my mum, man dammit,
A calamity happened to Callum 'n' Fi,
400 passed, now I gotta kick my own ass again,
Amassed with Matt again,
Guess I'm a bastard, time to find the right path again,

CHORUS
