Mycol - AS ABOVE SO BELOW

And this what we do
This who we are
You are a star
The star cmon
When i look up all i see is me
Who else could i ever be
These lies can be distracting deceiving
But it all depends on what you're perceiving
Who do you believe in
God
As above so below
Will these drugs keep me low
Will my truth get me high
Like the birds in the sky
Will my tears set me free
Let my wings be my peace
Will the pain give me love
Will the love ever leave
The time is 10:45 and i just decided
Im about to take a drive let my mind rewind it
Lately i
Been feeling so lost myself
Im tryna find em maybe get a grip and get inside em
Depression got the best of me tryna save the rest of me
Googling these questions like im tryna find a recipe
If god had an answer then tell me i missed the message G
Yall ever felt like im feeling then maybe we could be
Brothers in our struggles giving kisses to our sisters
Sorry for the trauma even if i never hit ya
Mama was product of my uncle getting with ha
Father never bothered family matters with the mrs hey
So here i am standing as i be
Branching from our broken home swanging in a tree
Strange fruit hanging in this Mississippi breeze
Flowing up the river all the way to Missouri hey
As above so below
Will these drugs keep me low
Will my truth get me high
Like the birds in the sky
Will my tears set me free
Tears set me free
Let my wings be my peace
Let my wings be my peace
Will the pain give me love
Will the pain give me love
Will the love ever leave
Will the love ever leave
See these cycles of society
They lead me to face difficult decisions
To be high and drunk or sobriety
Cause everyone around me is too busy numbing their pain
They don't feel their inner child beating on the walls they've built for so long
Yelling at the top of their lungs
Im alone
I feel lonely
I have nowhere to call home
Bc the attention span of my so called friends and fam
Shifts with the newest trend and ends up in the same place
Where all the best inspiration goes
The graveyard
See these cycles of society gave me anxiety
They make me nervous
They make me wanna stand behind my own shadow
And whisper in his ear to tell you that im hurting
Which makes me feel like dumbbells of reps
Dumbbells and reps
Dumb spells a wreck of masculinity that feeds
Off the insecurity of anyone that reminds me
Of all the little things i hate about myself
These muscles of mine are a reflection of perception
Of business and growth
So witness the show of pride when i succeed at killing my own self esteem
Just to say that i did it all myself
Except truth is i didn't
Accept truth is
You winning
Cause even though you might be sharing a meal for that 4 for 4 deal
Where the meat isn't even real
You still are loved
You still are loved
By you
By your friends
Your family
Your coworkers
Your 3rd grade history teacher that used to wink at you
Through those thick ass glasses
To remind you theres a reason why you got switched up to new classes
But most importantly you are loved
By God
Because if you weren't
You'd hear all of this and think that you could do nothing about
The cycles of society
