What Becomes Of Us

Words fail me trying to convey, the right thing to say,
But they're written in the lines on my face,
They're like a road map to show you the way,
No tomorrow if there's no today,
'Cause time will take all we've left, we've only now,
So fly away, hold your breath and don't look down,
What becomes of us? if our mistakes are the sum of us,
Missing all the beauty right in front of us

Here we are, our pride got a hold of us,
One road too far, our past blindfolding us
Here we are, our world in front of us,
If we lose our path, then what becomes of us?

Every road of my life, I've had to build across a broken divide,
Cornered animals only know how to fight,
So why's it feel like for winning
every argument, I lose a little part of us,
If I concede that I could be the feud within this partnership,
Then I don't know where I stand,
Maybe lately I been focused on my own just trying to broker a plan,
If everything's left unspoken then I know that we're damned,
And we'll keep drowning with this weight tied to both of our hands,
But don't mistake my silence for my withdraw,
Cause only people caught inside a war say it's worth fighting for,
If this encompasses us, what becomes of us?
Missing all the beauty right in front of us

Here we are, our pride got a hold of us,
One road too far, our past blindfolding us
Here we are, our world in front of us,
If we lose our path, then what becomes of us?

Asked a friend a question, said,
How much do you drink at night? 'Cause that's how much I spill,
I tried to drown my demons, but my demons they grew gills,
I feel I have no chill but don't want my heart to give cos,
I'm a father and I've got two other hearts to live for,
Frida said 'Viva La Vida', Imma meet her,
On the other side and fall at her feet I've,
Never heard such good advice, not here to pass the time,
I'm here to map a story on my face with laughter lines, right?
We can't see the path sometimes cos of our busy lives,
Like we can't see the stars at night cos of the city lights,
I need to step away and find my balance,
Redecorate my mind palace,
To find my sadness, and crush it like it's Adderall,
I mind my manners, and try to be kind,
When I find my answers, I'm going to be fine

Here we are, our pride got a hold of us,
One road too far, our past blindfolding us
Here we are, our world in front of us,
If we lose our path, then what becomes of us?
