Feel like Im out of it
Accidental sabbatical
Grab the pen that I've battled with
Stab the paper that captures it
Id like to say that this absence has been immaculate
But thats not even half of it, why not read by the asterisk
I feel inadequate, like everything I had i quit
Like everything that mattered, just splattered not it's elaborate
Feel like im tackling everything thats been happening
Cuz i just dont believe that what's happening even has to be
Why when it happens, it happens to me
I happen to have a beat
So I'm venting every thought that I have In me
See I fought through the casualties
and I sought for his majesty
I just need to sit still, lay back and wait on my shattered dreams
I'm back like vertebrae
This booth is like a jungle gym i had to see my words at play
I had to lick my my fingers, that's the only way i'd turn the page
But just to read a story, that'll turn around and ruin my day
See I put thoughts in my lyrics
So you actually have to develop some thoughts when you hear it
I hope you eventually tell when you're called by the spirit
But you will never know unless you've been awed by the spirit
I’d choose a million friends over a million bucks
You can never have both, decisions really tough
Cuz when you’re livings a business, you never get enough
But you start losing all the friends that listened when you spilled your guts
Wish I came when the time was right
But time just wasn’t something I had time to fight
So I left it on the backburner, without a light
I know It didn’t feel right but... thats life
