Terminal Velocity
Last month was a haze
The kiss of Mary Jane
Abundant in this place
To the extent that I taste
Nothingness, not depressed
But thinking that
All is lost in this mess
Afraid of dark, I stay awake
This endless turmoil I cannot break
The faces that I see in front of me are fake
Their lies confuse and I make mistakes
Hate what I see, I close my eyes
And stumble in this jungle
Can't see the chasm in front of me
The ground begins to crumble
A bit too late, but I can see a light
It is so bright there is no shadow in its might
But I can't walk and I can't crawl
For there's no leverage for me at all, and I fall
But even when I reach my terminal velocity
I do not beg and I do not plea
No screams from me, and they can see
That even in my fall, they will remember me
Can't deny I'm falling
To the laughter of my enemies
For help I'm not calling
Even now you can't fuck with me
Can't fall any faster
I've reached my terminal velocity
But even as I fall
You haters will remember me
Afraid of heights
But am falling anyway
On the brink of sanity
So praying's not the way
Took a pill today
And a hit or two of weed
Trying to find some freedom
From the tyranny of greed
Waking every morning
Thinking bout the misery
That I have to see
As i walk down the street
Homeless, cripple
Orphans are weeping
Praying for God to take them
As they're sleeping
Does it have to be
The pain of those we know
To show that we care
About the smallest decimal
Of populations occupying
This world we call home
With billions around us
We still feel alone
Afraid of heights and am
Still climbing up high
Fearing that i'll fall
But fearing more to stay here, why
No reason for living
With wounds that keep bleeding
With eyes that keep tearing
In a place without meaning
Wind hitting my face
I'm falling in my eyes
Reaching terminal velocity
I realize
That there's no faster
I can go making my life grow
So i try to take it slow
And enjoy its flow
Can't deny I'm falling
To the laughter of my enemies
For help I'm not calling
Even now you can't fuck with me
Can't fall any faster
I've reached my terminal velocity
But even as I fall
You haters will remember me
Can't deny I'm falling
To the laughter of my enemies
For help I'm not calling
Even now you can't fuck with me
Can't fall any faster
I've reached my terminal velocity
But even as I fall
You haters will remember me
To the laughter of my enemies
Even now you can't fuck with me
I've reached my terminal velocity
You haters will remember me
To the laughter of my enemies
Even now you can't fuck with me
I've reached my terminal velocity
You haters will remember me
The kiss of Mary Jane
Abundant in this place
To the extent that I taste
Nothingness, not depressed
But thinking that
All is lost in this mess
Afraid of dark, I stay awake
This endless turmoil I cannot break
The faces that I see in front of me are fake

I've reached my terminal velocity
You haters will remember me
