I'm Calcifiid
Am I turning into bone?
Or am I turning into precious stone?
You say that I'm calcified
I don't know if I even tried
If gold is worth your struggle
You may be worth your weight in gold
But should that weight bring you to buckle
You can have a career in coal
So rich in soot and rubble
Panning for the value of soul
But if you retire that shovel
Coal might still await you at home
If diamonds leave you restless
Levy that the pressure is held
Like gravity against your mattress
In lieu of the insurance you sell
Gifted in gems and spasms
Deadpan in the deepest of sleep
But if you climb out of that chasm
Return back to the bank
We have reached this juncture in our lives
Where we ask ourselves the questions that underline
Who we are, and where we will be in 5 years time
Will we be calcified?
Ill with regret over lack of effort
And failed attempts at friendships and family ties that have been severed
Through impulsive pursuit of a goal obscured by the pennant glory of an impossible and distant legacy
Or am I turning into precious stone?
You say that I'm calcified
I don't know if I even tried
If gold is worth your struggle
You may be worth your weight in gold
But should that weight bring you to buckle
You can have a career in coal
So rich in soot and rubble
Panning for the value of soul
But if you retire that shovel
Coal might still await you at home
If diamonds leave you restless
Levy that the pressure is held
Like gravity against your mattress
In lieu of the insurance you sell
Gifted in gems and spasms
Deadpan in the deepest of sleep
But if you climb out of that chasm
Return back to the bank
We have reached this juncture in our lives
Where we ask ourselves the questions that underline
Who we are, and where we will be in 5 years time
Will we be calcified?
Ill with regret over lack of effort
And failed attempts at friendships and family ties that have been severed
Through impulsive pursuit of a goal obscured by the pennant glory of an impossible and distant legacy
