Hourglass - Borialis

A lot of cats are hatin', slandering makin' bad statements

Mad cause they sit on their ass just stagnating

Always vacillatin', now classmates I graduated with

Are wonderin' how the stupidest kid up in the class made it

Sick landscapin' and jammin' down in my mans basement

Getting restraints and complaints from mad neighbors

Now prejudice bigots say I sound just like them damn #@#

Them pair of lenses ain’t repairin' their impaired vision

I’m on a mission escaping my own prison

Inflicting more pain then you’re givin' see I’m my own victim

I can’t believe I let you take up my time

Take up space in mind, give it here, I’m takin' what’s mine

(Chrous)

The only ounce of power that I have

Is what I do with now

And how I let the hours pass

I dont' know how long I’m gonna last

So I can’t let ya snatch the powder out my hourglass

Everyday that I’m awake I face the angel of death

He may be taken my breath, so they can lay me to rest

And by now my inner state’s the only place that I rep

The way that I dress is just another way to express

We know that some day everybody we see will be dead and rotten

Long forgotten, we oughta keep this for a normal topic

Because we all get caught up in all the drama

But what’s the gossip gonna mean, when me and you are goners

See I never did audition for a part in this play

I know that some day I’ll accidentally fall in my grave

So I can really give a shit about what all of ya say

According to me is how I’m spending all of my days

(Chorus)

The world will keep turnin', the inferno will keep burnin'

But it’s affirmative my life on Earth is impermanent

And since I’m visiting and my minutes here are limited

I ain’t havin' or doin' shit if I ain’t feelin' it

I’ll lend a hand to a hurt pedestrian and I will help a friend

In any way that I can, but I can’t let man get up in the way of my plans

Make me stray from my path, I can’t be takin' that chance

(Chorus)
