Buried 10 Feet
Beneath Shadows: A Soul's Struggle in Clark Kent's Melody
Lyrics
I sit and read listen and learn
I engage in reading, listening, and learning.
It's been sometime since I been out the hood
It's been a while since I left my neighborhood.
Cover the windows blockade the door
I block the windows and barricade the door.
We can't let nobody in here no more
We can't allow anyone to enter here anymore.
Trusted satan let him right in
I trusted someone evil, mistaking them for a friend.
I must have mistaken him for a friend
I made a grave error in thinking Satan was a friend.
This never ends same ole mistake
This cycle of mistakes never seems to end.
Somebody come save my grace
I plead for someone to save my dignity.
Buried beneath buried between
I feel buried beneath problems and conflicts.
I cannot see what's right in front of me
I can't perceive what's directly in front of me.
Twisted at seams blisters I bleed
My life is entangled and painful; I suffer.
My soul is cowering far beneath
My soul is deeply frightened and withdrawn.
Buried ten feet they won't see me
I am hidden ten feet underground, unseen by others.
My body is longing for defeat
My body desires defeat, showing signs of weakness.
Buried beneath buried ten feet
Feeling overwhelmed, buried ten feet deep.
Won't somebody come save me
I seek someone to rescue me from this situation.
Been a long road tied to a noose
My journey has been long, tied to a metaphorical noose.
My body is paralyzed from abuse
My body is paralyzed from enduring abuse.
Took the wrong turn got what's deserved
I made wrong choices and received deserved consequences.
Breaking through walls your defense I deter
I break through defenses, deterring your resistance.
Shaking so bad you would have thought
Shaking intensely, as if crawling with bugs.
I must be crawling in bugs
It seems impossible to fall so low, but I have before.
There is no way I'd fall that low
Reflecting on past falls and struggles.
But I have fallen many times before
I've fallen numerous times, experiencing hardship.
I look up to the sky wondering why
Looking to the sky, questioning the reasons for my struggle.
Why must I fight why must I survive
Questioning why I must fight and endure.
Why must I fight just to survive
Expressing the ongoing struggle for survival.
Why must I fight just to survive
Repeating the question of why one must fight to survive.
Buried beneath buried between
Feeling buried between conflicts and challenges.
I cannot see what's right in front of me
Blind to what's right in front of me.
Twisted at seams blisters I bleed
Experiencing twisted situations and enduring pain.
My soul is cowering far beneath
My soul is deeply frightened and withdrawn.
Buried ten feet they won't see me
Hidden ten feet underground, away from others' sight.
My body is longing for defeat
My body desires defeat, expressing vulnerability.
Buried beneath buried ten feet
Feeling overwhelmed, buried ten feet deep.
Won't somebody come save me
Pleading for someone to rescue me from this situation.
Buried beneath buried between
Feeling buried between conflicts and challenges.
I cannot see what's right in front of me
Blind to what's right in front of me.
Twisted at seams blisters I bleed
Experiencing twisted situations and enduring pain.
My soul is cowering far beneath
My soul is deeply frightened and withdrawn.
Buried ten feet they won't see me
Hidden ten feet underground, away from others' sight.
My body is longing for defeat
My body desires defeat, expressing vulnerability.
Buried beneath buried ten feet
Feeling overwhelmed, buried ten feet deep.
Won't somebody come save me
Pleading for someone to rescue me from this situation.
Buried beneath buried between
Feeling buried between conflicts and challenges.
I cannot see what's right in front of me
Blind to what's right in front of me.
Twisted at seams blisters I bleed
Experiencing twisted situations and enduring pain.
My soul is cowering far beneath
My soul is deeply frightened and withdrawn.</td
