The Skies Lyrics by SouL Elements

The Repercussions of Joy and Pain

2018

If you look into my eyes
You can see me, I’m in the skies
My star flies right next to me
It's been a minute since I’ve felt this ecstasy
I look around and analyze
I keep a quiet smile. I pantomime
I tell myself i don’t care. Wrong!
I need help, the line drawn
Looking at my stars, you beautiful
I disregard the hurt irrefutable
You know my name. SouL Elements
Just another guy irrelevant
I tell myself I don’t care
Lyin’. You really hurt
SouL Elements spurts at the same time
I try to stay alert so I stage rhymes
You’ll never know me. Simply Red
Sleeping every night alone in an empty bed
Dodge every bullet the shenanigans
Got me petrified. I’m stiff like a mannequin
I try to keep my feet on solid ground
But it’s hard so I walk with a stolid frown
I’m chronic bound, the need for harmonic sounds
Staying in my zone is all I can promise now

(chorus)
Look, I’m in the skies I know that nothing really matters
Nothing really lasts forever. No, it’s all gone in a minute
Just like clouds up above things come and go without meaning
Nothing lasts forever. No, it’s all gone in a minute

I gotta plan. I really do
I’ll disappear within my clouds and leave these billets-doux
Another one under the sun
Why can’t they understand where I'm coming from?
Or do you realize the real tides?
The things I’ve changed to make it real life
I will never miss another chance
So I’m gonna tell you now ‘cuz you’re my brother, man
I be in the skies. So they wanna be me?
I got clouds surrounding me so much they can’t see me
So look now or get shook later
I got the real deal. I don’t push betas
I be in the skies. It keeps me mollified
Watch my stars until they say I’m qualified
Singing lullabies rainbows and butterflies
I’m in my own world listening to spotify
I’m just being be. No need modify
Relax in the skies with myself I’m a side
Mentally not physically. I’m way too bonafide
And if I sound traumatized sorry, I apologize

(chorus)

A battle zone. the anguish starts
"Hors de combat." A vanquished heart
I'm writing letters from way above
I stay in the skies, hope I don't stay in love
Love is but a malady that’s incurable
It's full of fallacies when it should be durable
Mh, I dreamed what I could’ve built
Landed in my dreams but in a pool of silt
Gazing at my stars. Mind full of guilt
Bars full of scars is all I really felt
That’s on me. It doesn't take a genius
To know that’s universal law, I guess I jinxed it
After all that, still going crazy
Some of y’all may think I’m exaggerating
But I can see Karma. She’s getting closer
All I ask for is closure
The outcome is the consequence
But don't worry about me, I feel confident
I can conquer anything if I can conquer this
Writing poems in the night and I convalesce

(chorus)

(What Could This Be? poem)
What could this be?
Now stop! everyday you about...
Think! I, you
For love my expressing words, writing
Try? I still explain
Can words than more you love?
I stop and go backwards now
From the first I
Till everyday
