Hemlock Ernst & Kenny Segal
North To South
[Verse 1]
Have you ever been over to a friend's house to eat
And the food was just no good?
I stand at the path of distress
With intentions to address
My intentions to impress
Where my righteousness went?
I’m fighting this shit
The feelings that my demons keep in
The poison settled in my heart sometime when I was sleeping
Now I lay me down
Crown of thorns — don’t fuck around
Play the background, just carry the weight
I put the rose in my mouth
As I flow to the south
To find the love that I left behind
Ain’t no wind in chimes
And there’s no forking pines
Just a dotted line
Signed over my heart for a taste of this game
Settled now I’m ashamed
What I wanted with fame?
Got what I wanted got played
Cuz there’s no air at the top
And it’s hard to breathe, when your breath is the something you lost
And you remember the walks
And her face in the dark
[Chorus]
How easy we forget about it
How easy we forget about it
How easy we forget about it
How easy we
[Verse 2]
Just finished picking out the rose petals
Pulls like flesh and fibers from between my teeth
Not about to sleep
Staring into darkness from the precipice
I majored in reality
I’m feeling weak
I’m about to weep
Just trying to stay strong for my mother
And for my father
I’ll author the 21st
In a burst of seeds and
The golden reason
He taught me calmly
And through his interactions often spoken softly
And who have I become
And who am I to judge
Have I forgotten right for the wrongs that I’ve been dealt?
The hand that I’ve been felt
Left me isolated as a child
Now that they’re listening
I don’t think I need to get help
But they were never there
And you had always cared
And shared from your heart all the darkness pulling at you
And I was unaware
I changed so much and dared
Forever was no question just an answer, where I found you
I put the rose in my mouth
As I flow to the south
To find the love that I left behind
Ain’t no way to try
But there’s no pointing signs
Just a dotted line
Signed over my heart for a taste of this game
Moving now i’m away
What I wanted with fame?
Got what I wanted got played
Cuz there’s no air at the top
And it’s hard to breathe, when your breath is the something you lost
And you remember the walks
And her face in the dark
[Chorus]
How easy we forget about it
How easy we forget about it
How easy we forget about it
How easy we forget about it
Forget about it
Forget about it
Forget about it
Forget about it
[Outro]
Ain’t nothing wrong with stressing
Long as you learn your lesson
