Cut Away Lyrics by Chris Prythm

Fortune

2021

I used to dream in color
Used to believe there was nothing that I couldn’t achieve
Broke free from the others
Started nurturing a vision that they couldn’t see
I’ve been on this road so long
I don’t know another way
Seen the sky put the sun away
Thanking heaven for another day
Only love remains
When everything else is cut away
Realizing I was jaded as a youngin’ believing the world was mine and all I hadda do was turn 18 only to find
This world colder chest congestion coughing and headaches move at the speed of life sharp knife awaiting dead weight
Since the days of playing catch playing catch-up
Dad inherited short stick too
In his 20s in the 60s vivid memory of Dr. King’s match snuffed
Tho the dream lives a familiar scene is present
Same arena next generation
Contestants fighting the same battle repeatedly isn’t progression
What’s the level up algorithm
Need a plan with substance
No more malnutrition
Buddy system in place down to the PALiticians
So it’s hard to believe a word and with each non-conviction easier to doubt the system
Just more divisive lines being drawn
But I made it to a Knight from a pawn
I used to dream in color
Used to believe there was nothing that I couldn’t achieve
Broke free from the others
Started nurturing a vision that they couldn’t see
I’ve been on this road so long
I don’t know another way
Seen the sky put the sun away
Thanking heaven for another day
Only love remains
When everything else is cut away
Artists stress being discovered
The game I uncovered
Instead of keeping my head above water, kept my wings above surface
Kept my themes about purpose
No time is wasted on this earth when
You dedicated and every move is with passion
No mistaken, when you make it some is really gonna hate it
Compare they path to yours and wonder why they not in your placement
It's funny, from the basement we done came along ways
But to get to know me now, know me back in them days, fly
Fresh Offa Fairhope
It's more ways to view it
We was young playing Goldeneye it's more than just music
Made a beat for no for reason off the fly
Way before them loops boi we talking cool edit 95
Spit had lyrics I ain’t even know he wrote tho
The way life bought us together is something dope tho
Dream in colors, yea it’s a visual
And everything that’s happened for a reason now is critical, it’s on
I used to dream in color
Used to believe there was nothing that I couldn’t achieve
Broke free from the others
Started nurturing a vision that they couldn’t see
I’ve been on this road so long
I don’t know another way
Seen the sky put the sun away
Thanking heaven for another day
Only love remains
When everything else is cut away
