Lyrics
Now it seems that my reflections lacking honesty,
Reflecting on oneself and acknowledging a lack of honesty in those reflections.
Burying mistakes and problems who I want to be,
Burying mistakes and problems to shape the desired identity.
I cautiously Hold the hands of death as she walks with me,
Cautiously embracing the inevitability of death as a companion.
One mistake to tip the scales in which they’re judging me
A single mistake that can heavily influence judgment from others.
So Come with me, let’s dance among the stars make them fall to planet,
Inviting someone to join in a metaphorical dance among the stars.
So y’all can wish for better life although it won’t be granted
Expressing the futility of wishing for a better life that may not be granted.
Understand that, the only value is your self worth,
Highlighting the importance of self-worth as the ultimate value.
So know you are the one to set your self worth
Empowering oneself to determine and define their own self-worth.
Yeah I can see you’re held together like some patchwork,
Observing someone who appears patched together from past hurts.
But let me put you back together take that past hurt
Offering to help rebuild and heal by shouldering past pain.
And pack your, pain up in my chest I’ll keep it safe guarded
Safeguarding the pain, allowing the person to focus on their inner light.
So you can focus on your light until you can face that darkness
Encouraging facing the darkness while maintaining inner strength.
And face the hardest, knowing forever through it you are not alone,
Assuring that one is not alone in facing challenges forever.
Even catch and pick you up when you have to fall,
Committing to support and uplift someone during difficult times.
I’ll show yourself now through my eyes to know you’re beautiful,
Revealing the beauty within someone beyond physical appearance.
Not just your body baby know that I have seen your soul, liquid gold
Recognizing the value of the person's soul, described metaphorically as liquid gold.
We just hide behind expressions,
Acknowledging the tendency to conceal true emotions behind facial expressions.
To keep from second-guessing,
Using expressions as a defense mechanism to avoid self-doubt.
The dark thoughts in our mind,
Addressing the dark thoughts within the mind and questioning true well-being.
Or if we’re truly fine
Wondering if one is genuinely fine despite the pain kept hidden.
From all the pain we’ve kept in
Reflecting on the emotional burden carried over time.
Drowning myself in these bottles because the sorrow’s real/ prescribing addiction cuz don’t know what tomorrow fills/ building distance with fake smiles and hand waves/ syncing to the beat of my heart as the band plays/ only bow down to the rise of my son/ or daughter expecting that surprise soon to come/ now dark thoughts to move the sun/ been misguided so my trust is low cuz my miss guided my trust so low/ now it’s only zero fucks to go/ experience from mistakes my college degree/ locking myself away knowing this knowledge is key/ hidden behind laughs portraying another guy/ life tested blessings second guessing expressing expressions saying otherwise/ time heals slower when you’re backstabbed in the front/ that wisdom is colder when acts grab what they want/ so pardon my subtlety but I don’t fuck with you/ this smile is burdened with affliction I cannot substitute/
Expressing a guarded and cautious attitude due to past experiences and betrayals.
