ContraVein - Icarus

Icarus flying close to the sun
Burned up and crashed, then he got shunned
Stood back up to the sound of roaring drums
Thinkin’ ‘bout the legend of which he’ll become
Demons on the loose, some I can’t outrun
Draggin’ me back to my old friend’s scum
I stood back up to the sound of roaring drums
Thinkin’ ‘bout the legend of which I’ll become
Bouncin’ back today don’t know what to say
On my knees I pray, like I do it every day
Icarus, I’m flyin’ vigorous, I’m dyin’
Pull that uzi, eat my dust, yeah they call me Myron
Cocky with my ways but I still don’t get no praise
Guess I ain’t the craze but that ain’t how I been upraised
I fill myself with pride I’m only with you for the ride
You thinkin’ that I cried 'stead I only lost my stride
Comin’ at me, harassment
Goin’ on your tangent
One month only I’m absent
Temporary, transient
Opposing effort, valiant
Comin’ at my talent
Puttin’ me entrapment only me you abandoned
Bad group of friends like a sad bad date
Spoiled and rotten, fueled by their hate
Difficult times, wishin’ that they saw straight
Break off like a band, probably just fate
Icarus flying close to the sun
Burned up and crashed, then he got shunned
Stood back up to the sound of roaring drums
Thinkin’ ‘bout the legend of which he’ll become
Demons on the loose, some I can’t outrun
Draggin’ me back to my old friend’s scum
I stood back up to the sound of roaring drums
Thinkin’ ‘bout the legend of which I’ll become
Fact’s a little twisted while the truth is slowly driftin’
Fabricated lie consistin’ of resilience
Believed by millions
Seein’ truth in only visions
Populated by villians trynna trash civilians
The evil rule the world I ain’t talkin’ bout no treason
I’m talkin’ ‘bout those empowered for really no reason
Relyin’ on they enemy’s insecurities
With no maturities and they complexities
I’m saying this like please I get you ain’t no sleaze
But that ain’t no reason to go off on these peeps
Empowerment is great but you creatin’ all this hate
With your twisted view of this world like you ain’t seeing straight
I know I know I know I know
That I’ve made a few mistakes
But it turns out that it’s only one that it takes
To unleash all the snakes, to bring out all the fakes
Then it’s like a plague, that’s all that it takes
Icarus flying close to the sun
Burned up and crashed, then he got shunned
Stood back up to the sound of roaring drums
Thinkin’ ‘bout the legend of which he’ll become
Demons on the loose, some I can’t outrun
Draggin’ me back to my old friend’s scum
I stood back up to the sound of roaring drums
Thinkin’ ‘bout the legend of which I’ll become
Icarus flying close to the sun
Burned up and crashed, then he got shunned
Stood back up to the sound of roaring drums
Thinkin’ ‘bout the legend of which he’ll become
Demons on the loose, some I can’t outrun
Draggin’ me back to my old friend’s scum
I stood back up to the sound of roaring drums
Thinkin’ ‘bout the legend of which I’ll become
