lyrics

Don't tell me what the proper way to say goodbye is
This is your momentary access to my sanctuary
Haha, I guess I'll tell you what you want to know
But basically I'm reppin' dysfunctional mental clarity

We could meditate for days and talk about the silly ways
That you pray for the day to come
When the world’s gonna leave you a price to pay
I think you done fuckin’ prayed enough
It’s no use when you yellin’ at the sky and the tears that you cry
They gone fill every aqueduct
I told you purpose and fear conduct
Warping all the minds till they tie it off

(Don’t tell me what the price is)
I never could have said enough
I knew you’d always fuckin’ call my bluff
Yeah you put me in a bind and such
Got my mind on the grind it’s hot to the touch
Whatchu doin’ in the other room?
I gave you answers now you went and broke my trust
These mental hallways covered in grime and dust

This is not who we are
This is not who I am
I never could have said enough
This is not what I planned
A higher contemplation

Am I insane? This is the place where
I need to prove I can change, man
Fightin’ in the dark
Why did you fuck up your plans
Thinkin’ you were pretty smart
What’s left for me to gain
Can I leave the archetypal mark
Watch as my face hits the pavement
Teeth fall apart
Sketchin’ up a myriad of ways
To make it back to the start
Fuckin’ with the time and the space
Chasin’ after the spark
Welcome to my motherfuckin’ cage
Can I take your coat?
Maybe if you’re feelin’ really brave
I’ll give you my hand to hold
But careful I have sensitive veins
At anytime they could explode

Please don’t fucking tell me what the price is
I never wanna know
There’s no relief in entertaining the fallacies we compose
Here’s another one
I’m at the top of the world scrutinized by the face of eternity
(Look me in the eye)
He’s yellin’, “Yo, who’s the man who said you need to do or don’t
Just crinkle up that little sanctuary till it’s dust and bones”
Until it’s dust and bones
