Blaze a Trail

There's something sweet about, living life your own way, blaze a trail in the sky and watch the haters roll away. Haters? Yeah, I've had a lot of those, and I suppose that it's due to some of the choices that I chose. But I wasn't of sound mind, see, people like me give in too easily, to the voices inside their head, rather than going to bed, I decided to stay awake with three grams of coke up my nose instead. I'd wake up in the morning, barely breathing, let alone yawning. Rub the crust from my nasal, got out and try seek appraisal from those I call my friends. Now, they love me but they just wanna see all this bullshit end. And I can't blame 'em, it must get tiresome, watching someone you love fuck up their life to kingdom come. These days my body feels strange, I think it's time to change, and let my bright blue eyes see the beauty in the world again!

So I go WHACK WHACK WHACK on the door of life

Look to the future, let go of the strife

And I go BANG BANG BANG on the door of livin'

I'm right down the bottom but man's still breathin'

So I'm sure you all wanna know, how the fuck did I get so low? How did this damn fine, good looking, intelligent mother fucker become worse than any other? I can't tell you myself my friends, 'cause in the end, I'm just a result of situations I couldn't bend. 'Cause there's a melody in everything, I was tryin' to find the harmony but nothing seemed to work, nothing fit. And others looked down on me, they couldn't see what I could see, in my eyes, I was burning bright and about to take the world just for me. But that's just it, I was too inverted, not willing to be converted to the greater good just like I should and give the world the love that I never even understood. My elders call me a hood, well actually, mate, this is a cap, throw shit at me and I'll throw some right back! But let's not take it that far, how 'bout we share an embrace and feel love for the stars. 'Cause the world holds so much beauty, it can hurt, but we can chat for hours and listen to the nonsense that each of us blurt. That's what it's all about, lighting a match, watching the flame and not letting it die out. In every one of us there's a world, so let it be heard, I love every single one of you and I always will do.

So I go WHACK WHACK WHACK on the door of life

Look to the future, let go of the strife

And I go BANG BANG BANG on the door of livin'

I'm right down the bottom but man's still breathin'

Back to basics I'm afraid, this world is cold and it amazes me that so many of us decide to stay. That sounds a bit dark I know, but just like the good times, you gotta let the pain flow. But that ain't necassarily a bad thing, some pain can cause the best singers to sing, or the best artists to bring, bring their art to the world for all to see, and amazingly, that's what's happened for me. These words I spit come with no pretence, and if you're on the fence about my perfomance then I'll at least say cheers for listening. But now I'm glistening, see the world with a brand new scope, and here's to all the hope, that exists in the world even though so many can't view it. Screw it! We all live life our own way, blaze trails in the sky and watch the pain roll away. Just remember it ain't so bad, remember the good times you've had, look forward to the future, get away from your computer and go do something that don't make you so sad.

So I go WHACK WHACK WHACK on the door of life

Look to the future, let go of the strife

And I go BANG BANG BANG on the door of livin'

I'm right down the bottom but man's still breathin'
