Skylight Lyrics by Louis Metric

2019

I say a rhyme for the monster that awaits inside
And try to wave goodbye the expectations that I place to high
Good thing that I'm okay with myself, I think it tastes fine
Just the way it is, ain't gotta turn this grape to wine
Before it's ready, but patience dries, chills over take the spine
I spill the ink to fill the void in vacant minds
Mama told me once, it's the simple things that make you wise
So I say a rhyme for love, you know the self destructive, painful kind
There's something bout the chase the idea of being finite
That drives my eyes to keep peeking through the skylight
Step outside the comfort I'm confined by, play the song
Live, maybe learn from it in hindsight later on
Put on whatever face you want, follow suit, or raise the pot
I gamble, half the battles lost if I don't play the pawn
Just beyond the breath, lays a box, a stone on which my name is carved
I'm no longer waiting on a break, I gotsta take the shot
I don't pretend I know more than the rest
I just mind my own steps, right, left, right, left
I just live my life as if I might just drop dead
Cause I might just drop dead, there's not much to dissect
I don't pretend I know more than the rest
I just mind my own steps, right, left, right, left
I just live my life as if I might just drop dead
Cause I might just drop dead, there's not much to dissect
I sing a tune for the demon asleep beneath the cool
Front I keep illume that tells me I don't have a single clue
Good thing that I don't need to prove I'm human being to you
You think a smooth demeanor fools me? you're picking up the pieces too
And people do what people do, you say you seek the truth
But seem to be a few pointed fingers from a seamless view
There ain't a please that you could top with cherries that would keep the zoo in line
So try sticking with one side of the street to broom, boom
I sing a tune for the high and the lower vibrations
To bridge the gap between awoken minds
And those who've only ever known the dry tone of the lullaby
Slowly driving til there time's up, I've been on both the sides
And I am no better than the man who thinks of nothing
I'll come clean in time, my puzzle isn't complete
I'm hungry and the more I eat, the more I get the munchies
Don't know what you run from bud but I bet it's something
I don't pretend I know more than the rest
I just mind my own steps, right, left, right, left
I just live my life as if I might just drop dead
Cause I might just drop dead, there's not much to dissect
I don't pretend I know more than the rest
I just mind my own steps, right, left, right, left
I just live my life as if I might just drop dead
