Natsumiii
In Between The Lines
(Verse 1: Collective)
A troubled soul and mind resides behind these closed eyes
Trying to decide what moral code I wish to go by
My foundation crumbled, honestly I know why
Change comes with a cost, I can't deny that it's about time
My heartbeat can guide me, from feeling like I'm faulty
I'm a new man, standing proud - nothing else can stop me
Got a bandage on my heart though, cause it's been ripped apart by harpies
I'm never giving my all to another woman who doesn't want me
But I'm not complaining, I'm the one making the situation so complicated
It's all in my head, and I know that it is, yet I opt in like an operation
I know that I can fix this, with some concentration
And I'm finding solace in that hip-hop is my consecration
Feeling ripped off and jaded, I will not tolerate this
Why would I walk away and flirt with what I've always hated?
If I'd go down that path, I'd feel like my honour's faded
But I am tempted every time that I'm intoxicated

(Chorus: Natsumiii)
When we write, all alone
Deep, deep into the night
We're found, living inbetween the lines
When we're up, all alone
Deep, deep into the night
Our soul's, living inbetween the lines
(Verse 2: Collective)
It's funny how they say our destiny is written in the stars
Leaving those who say that cursing every person who they aren't
They pride themselves on the fallacy that they can't control all who they are
Giving credit to genetics, dismissed the lessons they should learn from heart
We all have our stress, the daily problems that never rest
Pressing and spread like a pestilience- my jealousy driven malevolence
Is a curse and I'm perched on this precipice, but the worst of it is my negligence
Burdens and dampens intelligence, with a burst I will rap with a resonance
My back's at the wall, I'm mad at it all, I'm asking those close to catch when I fall
Trapped in a chasm, having to call for help - like bawl in a bathroom stall
I can barely sleep, have to rely on Tylenol
But how can I rest when I'm busy dreaming of achievements? Fuck it - I'll take it all
I mean this, I'm serious, there's so many goals that I need completed
And I don't need support, as long as I'm the one believing it
Although sometimes, these goals can make my life so heated
They made me realize the beauty of this life is decent

(Chorus: Natsumiii)
When we write, all alone
Deep, deep into the night
We're found, living inbetween the lines
When we're up, all alone
Deep, deep into the night
Our soul's, living inbetween the lines
