lyrics

Welcome, please.
lay down your things
rest your wings, come,
sit with me here.
beneath this tree
and tell me of your travels.
let the world unravel this is your place to be.

I said Welcome, please
lay down your things,
rest your wings, come,
sit with me here.
beneath this tree
and tell me of your travels.
let the world unravel this is your place to be.

Dreams can be expensive
no matter how extensive
the universe never head of me
before this now I'm all in

This is not a task, this is not a hobby
steady slayin with the brass and I’m hardly 20
I’m not sorry for my past that's what got me ready
for the here. Got a couple things that I’m tryna make clear
Got a couple reasons I ain't ever coming near
the demons that weaken the youth, I speak for the truth
comfort is cute but have you grown from dispute?
you ever know a life of exclusion?
losing the rights you were never used to using
losing your people to addiction and using
that friction's confusing
the systems abusing
this is hardly amusing. but.

music comin through,
now I’m hummin the blues

life too short
for you to not getta choose

I might go to court
for displaying my
my only way to spread the news
is to say the truths that
come to me
come for me
color me triumphantly
I’m functionally inclined
to do what I was designed
conjunctionally in line
with my ancestry behind
lost in modern time
that's the way to sublime
opportunity cost
compare the dime to the time.
this is a life, not a line.
I got some strife with the grind
that quicker leads to decline.

Dreams can be expensive
no matter how extensive
the universe never head of me
before this now I'm all in

Interlude:

Show me your scars
I'll show you mine too
a comparison of worlds
you thought only you knew
sit with me and listen as they speak
what does your gut feel?
are you pouring out to others
one after the other?
what do you keep for yourself,
are you creating your own hell?
how will you heal the world
before healing your own traumas?

don't listen to me speak.
do listen to the way you react.
Listen to the water, to the trees,
to the skin on your back.
