Words fail me trying to convey the right thing to say
But they're written in the lines on my face
Like a road map to show you the way
No tomorrow if there's no today
'Cause time will take all we've left, we've only now
To fight away
Hold your breath and don't look down
What becomes of us if our mistakes are the sum of us?
Missing all the beauty right in front of us
Here we are, our pride got a hold of us
One road too far, our paths blindfolding us
Here we are, our world in front of us
If we lose our path, then what becomes of us?
Every road in my life I've had to build across a broken divide
Cornered animals only know how to fight
So why's it feel like?
To win in every argument, I lose a little part of us
If I can see that I can be the fued within this partnership
Then I don't know where I stand
Maybe lately I've been focused on my own, just trying to broker a plan
If everything's left unspoken then I know that we're damned
Then we'll keep drowning with this weight tied to both of our hands
But don't mistake my silence for my withdrawal
'Cause only people caught inside a war say it's worth fighting for
If this encompasses us, what becomes of us?
Missing all the beauty right in front of us
Here we are, our pride got a hold of us
One road too far, our paths blindfolding us
Here we are, our world in front of us
If we lose our path, then what becomes of us?
Asked a friend a question
Said, how much do you drink at night?
'Cause that's how much ?
Tried to drown my demons, but my demons they grew gills
I feel I have no chill, but do all my heart to give
'Cause I'm a father and I've got two other hearts to live for
Frida said "Viva la vida," I'mma meet her on the other side of all the love we have
Never heard such good advice, not here to pass the time
I'm here to map a story on my face with laughter lines
Right, we can't see the past sometimes 'cause of our busy lives
Like, we can't see the stars at night 'cause of the city lights
I need to step away and find my balance
Redecorate my mind palace
My, my Alice
I went down the rabbit hole to find my sadness
I crush it like it's adderall, well my, my madness
I tried to be kind, where'd I find my answers
I'm gonna be fine
Here we are, our pride got a hold of us
One road too far, our paths blindfolding us
Here we are, our world in front of us
If we lose our path, then what becomes of us?
