Into The Abyss

I feel like I've been here before Real life or dreaming, unsure When all my travels could all unravel In a heartbeat or a thought And if my legacy's abolished Then whatever we accomplished Did it for the pedigree, I don't see an enemy Then to me y'all are potentially accomplice 'Cause some men rise above Some men fight enough Until there struggling becomes them and are defined as such Who the fuck then divided us It's like I'm born every morning, die every evening War at my door reviving my demons I'd rather die with my convictions than live a life with no meaning So I hold court like the king of the mountain hall Every one everything is accountable Face the music and embrace the truth of all that makes us human Then I think I'd be proud of y'all If I am, all I said I am And we are, all in together and From where I stand I'm just trying to get a plan To build a better man for this Neverland Maybe a dreamer, make believer, try escape the ether But the great deceiver lives inside to feed a basic need for Identity of own, set me in stone near my legacy to grow then I'll never be alone It's the music that will ferry me to home I'm not lost, I've been following my own path Not blind, been looking at my future not past Ain't done, staring into the abyss daily Until that man in the mirror ain't me I'm not lost, I've been following my own path Not blind, been looking at my future not past Ain't done, staring into the abyss daily Until that man in the mirror ain't me Feel like I've been here before, in the abyss Looking up to the great expanse Stars in the sky, stars in my eyes Won't stop till their stars in my hands Feel like I landed on Mars I feel abandoned in fact They're all on Dancing with Stars Making fun of artists who actually rap I lost my confidence Till I got on my flex Now can't tell me nothing, city all suffering Tell God he got a Suffa complex I'm draped in the belt of Orion I'm praying the truth rings out They're saying the loud things quiet We're saying the quiet things loud I wanna rock right now Want every single rapper on the block wiped out Everybody coming at the Hilltop, lights out You're running down seconds on the clock, time out What? Pipe down, we don't care what you think of us We're the shit and you can't sit with us You trying to fly by clinging to Icarus I'm trying to drive by liquor and cigarettes I'm trying to be a better man Ask Eddie Vedder man, I'm trying to be Clark I feel like Letterman, hiding my venom in A coffee mug with a broken heart Open bars probably going to kill me If all this touring don't From the heart sincerely All I want really, is to watch my children grow I'm not lost, I've been following my own path Not blind, been looking at my future not past Ain't done, staring into the abyss daily Until that man in the mirror ain't me I'm not lost, I've been following my own path Not blind, been looking at my future not past Ain't done, staring into the abyss daily Until that man in the mirror ain't me --- Into the Abyss - Hilltop Hoods
