this is my job
i will not quite it
pull me out of the depths
when i thought i was finished
ya i question
if i can go the distance
that’s just the work
regardless of who’s listening
listen
see i was meant to be a warrior
fight something amongst me
leave here victorious
classroom of kids
or a venue performing
if i’d done it for the money
i’d had been a fucking lawyer
concrete bagabon van telling stories
humbled by the road
i’m realizing I’m not important
see life’s a beautiful struggle
i record it
hope it helps you
maneuvering through yours
that’s why we stay in the lab at night
i’ve been staring into this pad
for over half my life
a true artist won’t be satisfied
so I guess that’s the sacrifice
