Fromjoy Daedalus
[Pre-Chorus]
Thoughts that swell like crashing waves
Drowning in the guilt of my wasted days
[Chorus]
Shot out like a bullet from the womb to the curb
I spent my time following a pattern I never learned
Wasted words brought no rewards, no purpose served
I reserved my hateful gift
So I gave you my skin
With nothing left to give
[Bridge]
Trees weeping off the wilt of Autumn's leaves (Autumn's leaves)
A change of heart (Change of heart)
With Winter's breeze
[Verse 2]
Trauma didn't make me strong, it made me selfish
A bitter and angry f..ck, why am I like this?
My past isn't rich but my words are more than two-cents
But after what I've f..cking done, who would listen?
I could help myself or act self righteous
Nobody else would, it isn't worth it
I just want to go away
From all of you
[Verse 3]
Running against the wind
In a fight I'll never win
Succumbing to the vices
As adversity arises
Try as I might
But I'm never surprised by the silence from the altar
As I beg for redemption
Of my falter
As I watched the words pour from the mouth
Disappointment from the lips
Don't tell me your grievance, it doesn't mean shit
My peace of mind isn't worth this
[Pre-Chorus]
Thoughts that swell like crashing waves
Drowning in the guilt of my wasted days
[Chorus]
Shot out like a bullet from the womb to the curb
I spent my time following a pattern I never learned
Wasted words brought no rewards, no purpose served
I reserved my hateful gift
So I gave you my skin
With nothing left to give
[Outro]
"Heed my words, Struggler. Soon a rain of blood, the likes of which you cannot imagine, shall fall down upon you. It will be a storm of death. But take heed, Struggler. Struggle, endure, contend. For that alone is the sword of one who defies death."
