[Verse 1: YOSHUA]
Still don't have justice for them
Still can't put my trust in man
Still walking late nights alone and broken
Still keep my heart closed and frozen
Combover, high fade
Cold shoulder, on my day
'Bout the only time I feel myself is then
Bouts of self-esteem I hardly ever win
The deeper that I fall, the deeper that I dig
That's what pastor preacher told the people but
I can't help but wonder if he fibbed
I can't help but question my own sin
Is it so wrong if it feels so right?
We are all perfect in our own eyes
I can't confess so I wrote these raps
I'm just hoping they fill in the gaps
[Bridge: YOSHUA]
Roundabouts I drove around, 'round
Around the time my soul was down, and I was
Praying 'til I see the outcome like (ooooh)
Reddish hues on jagged dunes
I just want to get my paper too
I had to stay away from you (ooooh)
[Chorus: Gabriel Garzón-Montano]
Your heart thaws, you look to the sky
And soon as your eyes start to rain
You're humming along while she whispers songs of the good life
[Verse 2: YOSHUA]
I made Pretty but, don't feel prettier
Don't feel much at all, I just, I just
I just can't compare myself to nameless faces
Walking in endless places, I
Think of "I" too much, thinking quite too much
Think of thinking much less and fly to dust
Think I the king, think I the dream, think I the team
Think I know what this really means, think I see
[Chorus: Gabriel Garzón-Montano]
The pink sky, the blue of the night
And blackberry becomes the rain
Sweet Mami Wata whispers songs of the good life
[Verse 3: YOSHUA]
Tension is killing me, killing me, ah
Haven't been myself lately, I have broken down daily
I'm sick of everything, everything, I
I just want to go to sleep
Please, no bothering me
Please don't say it's my fault
I know that it's my fault
Words ain't shit without meaning, so
I'm cool with just being, so
Lonely all of the time
I've been trapped in my mind
I came into from the dust
And to the dust, I'll return
So what?
[Outro: YOSHUA]
I don't make promises, I can't keep up with 'em
And that's just common sense, put me in front of them
I'm used to the same old same old thangs now
I'm bitter as bitter can be
I know this doesn't come free
I got a target on me
Watch all the burdens I bleed, carry 'em
Heart on my sleeve, wearing 'em
