Mynus_grey - Everything

Y'know, as long as I can remember, I always wanted everything
I wanted to try every single genre of music, every style of clothes
Every subject at school, and that's just who I was

I wanna keep making music 'till I done a show in every country
Get married to a foreign girl I know who really loves me
Run standup comedy clubs just to find out if I'm funny
Drop out of school, try a bunch of drugs, turn into a junkie
Buy a farm and live a quiet life out as rancher
Start a political movement, something like Black Panthers
Learn science, go to school, and find a cure for cancer
Become religious, cross the whole world searching for answers

One day when I'm gone, I'll wish I had loved
I'll wish I had loved
One day, I'll wonder if I've done enough and I'll wish I had loved
I'll wish I had loved

I heard most people regret the things that they didn't do
I'm just as guilty too
I got that fear of missing out combined with fears of living proud
And I'm so terrified of losing what I couldn't live without
See my mama raised me, my brother saved me, the culture changed me
The music paid me
Really maybe the thing I need to do is scream
"Fuck Everything" on this track and go crazy
'Cause thinking for myself's the only thing that God gave me

I wanna do everything, everything
And I mean everything, everything
Experience everything, everything
I wanna feel everything, everything
But what is everything to a mortal?
What is infinity to a boy?
I go through these life phases
I feel as my sight changes
I see everything different
What is that everything to a mortal?
What is infinity to a boy who believes in nothing, and knows even less
He knows not of what he pretends

There's a hundred thousand futures I'll never live
That's a tragedy, just change that shit to gold like alchemy
Plug these holes up in my soul like cavities
See my bros worried about 0's on the balance sheet
Worried 'bout hos who worried 'bout keeping low on they calories
That's the twisted ways we define success
My feet are running but my mind's at rest
I told my ex
"I'll be ready to love in ten years you can call me then
If I don't pick up, then I'm probably dead"
As Drizzy said, wish I could go back to the beginning
Not to change the shit I've done, but to feel it over again
I mean that shit sincerely, my only regret is not having more regrets
Burnt cigarettes thrown at my doorstep at my home address
Used to get me so upset
Now I just think about the way I wanna die
At 70, on LSD, surrounded by friends with no jealousy
And no fear of death 'cause I've experienced everything

I go through these life phases
I feel as my sight changes
I see everything different
What is that everything to a mortal?
What is infinity to a boy who believes in nothing, and knows even less
He knows not of what he pretends
