I pressed the issue/Crossed the limits/
Never lost the vision/I guess I wish you/
Thought to fix it/If you wrong admit it/
The cost is risen/It’s too late now/
You ain’t wanna listen/But when I’m gone/
My intuition will haunt the livin’/
You stay the same but/
Claim you want it different…/
Where does the music go/
When the song is finished?/
I just wish you/All could witness/
Instead of hinting/I’m off my hinges/
I saw the hidden hand/
And on the wall was written/
A raw depiction/I spoke with conviction/
And y’all dismissed it…/
Such is the/Life of a prophet
Time has forgotten/
Without a righteous accomplice/
Knowing my mind is God’s gift/
Know that the eye is watchin’/
Provoking a violent conflict/
In hopes you/Deny ya conscience/
While owners lining they pockets/
And sold us lies/Disguised as a promise/
Behind the profits/You bought it though it/
Defies your logic/By design, put you inside a/
Box and define the optics/
…and you too blind to stop it/
Sometimes you just gotta/Know where you’re goin’ to/
Sometimes you gotta/Recognize who you’ve grown into/
Sometimes you just gotta/Know where you’re goin’ to/
And sometimes you just/Know a little too much/
How many of us had a father/Never saw his face?/
Grew up feelin’ like our/Lives were mistakes?/
Funny how the universe/Could turn the tables/
So completely/Seein what y’all believe in/
It made me grateful to be me/
You naively see/Reality on TV/
I’m from where the/Show is live/
But no role is scripted/You better know the difference/
Tell ya ‘til I’m blue in the face/But who could relate?/
I’m losin’ my taste for/Proving my case/
To folks who won’t/Do what it takes/
The concept of/Truth is at stake/
Keep denyin’ what you/See with your eyes/
I’ma live free or die/
As for y’all, whatever/Helps you sleep at night/
You threaten my trust/We ain’t gotta settle a grudge/
I said what it was/There’s really nothin’ left to discuss/
I’m empty and numb/But good at still pretending it’s love/
No weight on my/Conscience from the way it/
Ended with us…/
Best of luck but know the/Rest is yet to come/
Man, I tried to tell’em…/
