and I pray that I would soar up
Fought my way to find the sedge,
but yet I'm never close enough
Closed the door that I opened up,
This the only way I'm driven,
and sad enough this road is tough
I've lost friends in the past
Burnt bridges and broke down walls
My mother says I act like
Maybe I'm bothered at the fact
I've been fighting off this persecution
Trying to find a new solution
and I'm here to get my retribution
I had a dollar and a dream but I spent it
And now I'm just living out my sentence
Love, please guide me on this road
Cause it's lonely and long
cause I know that I'm wrong
For every time that I gave up in the past
I'm in debt to you for holding us long
when the door gets closed
Just another shallow grave
Just know that I'ma write
Cause I could barely fall asleep,
it's like a corner of three
Cause I can't wait to see the
Cause I know it's almost over,
Cause I know it's almost over,
Cause I know it's almost over,
Even when the door closes,
there's a reason for the madness
no escape in your past, kid
They say the karma hits you
when you're down on your luck
Never had no fear of lightning
till the day you get struck
I seen the real that kept it real,
the fake ones kept it fake
and I'ma pray for all these snakes
And carnivores that despise us,
but we ride us till we dyin'
So I'm sorry for the problems
I feel like my trash wants me to break
Keep my faith in a higher power
Can't divide us from this universal law
You can see the gifts of all,
but it's used for what it's for
When I used it for the world,
but now I use it for the Lord
Guess we started underground,
Now we're taking it to levels
they ain't never seen before
Thank the Lord every time
I reach a door for a close up
When the door gets closed
Just another shallow grave
Just know that I'ma write
Cause I could barely fall asleep
it's like a quarter to three
Cause I can't wait to see the
Cause I know it's almost over,
know it's almost over tonight
They say when one door closes,
tell me why'd you give me all these chances
with light shinin' round the edges
Profusely sweatin', eyes closed,
So why the hell am I still dig
gin' out this black hole?
And why the hell am I still
feelin' like a lost soul?
My granny told me long ago,
Develop from the negatives
and everything'll be fine
But time is passin' like traffic
sit and watch while the walls crash
I'm looking for that open door,
If I lose it in the fire,
you can find it in the ashes
When the door gets closed,
Just another shallow grave
Just know that I'ma write
Cause I could barely fall asleep,
it's like a quarter to three
to see the sunrise coming for me
Cause I know it's almost over,
know it's almost over tonight
Cause I know it's almost over,
know it's almost over tonight
Cause I know it's almost over,
know it's almost over tonight
