Sitting here contemplating, if I've made it, perception jaded
In the middle of complete depression and feeling so elated
My soul's degraded cause all I've known is this entertainment
Do I love or loathe being famous? Who knows it just interchanges
Smoke, mirrors, mazes, traps, invisible cages
Mental and physical anguish, stuck in a cyclical status
Let my ego enslave this mind of mine for ages
Now I use the power of rhymes as medicinal language
So take a dose of this prescription
Whenever your hope is in submission
All you gotta' know is always look forward
Even if you gotta start cold and re-mold the vision
Truth be told, you're your own worst enemy and only competition
Never too young never too old, never too broke for wisdom so when you sittin'
Alone in the dark, prisoner of your thoughts
Look inside you'll see the God that you were from the start
And all this meditating, got me contemplating
Now I finally see
Ain't nobody saving me but me
Nobody But Me
Nobody But Me
Nobody's saving me but me
Sitting here contemplating, am I telling my truths or the lies of others
Or is anything we do only good if approved by the eyes that judge us
Only get 1 life but we cruising through acting like there's dozens
Can't make moves till the question of who you are is discovered
Being free completely ain't easy we fond of dysfunction
The ego's sneaky when you tell it its time for destruction
Don't believe me, you're invited to the forest of nothing
Talking's easy, staying silent presents harder discussions
We can let that pressure crush us, or give us substance
Richness and abundance that can never slip through ya clutches
What are your true colors
When the line that you've drawn smudges
Everything you thought it was it wasn't
Now you on your own and suffering
Alone in the dark, prisoner of your thoughts
Look inside you'll see the God that you were from the start
And all this meditating, got me contemplating
Now I finally see
Ain't nobody saving me but me
Nobody But Me
Nobody But Me
Nobody's saving me but me
Ever close your eyes, blur the lines?
Do you know?
Happiness and pain are only state of minds
What is there to fear? I'm going out and getting mines
Do you know?
That the future and the past are all just lies
Do ya? No really do ya?
Cause when you sittin'
Alone in the dark, prisoner of your thoughts
Look inside you'll see the God that you were from the start
And all this meditating, got me contemplating
Now I finally see
Ain't nobody saving me but me
Nobody But Me
Nobody But Me
Nobody's saving me but me
Much of the time, our mind is like a balloon in the wind
Blown here and there by external circumstances
Do you know that feeling?
