Do Not Pass Go
Pieces of this board game
Trying to roll the dice so it's in our favour
The calmness that we're seeking
Can only come from harnessing something greater
It's all you, yeah it's all you
It only takes one day to think
I'm tired of living on the brink
Confusion littered all around these sentences
A series of revolving doors, it's hard to find the entrances
But I found openings in my mind
I never knew the wall that I climbed
The path you take is never set in stone
So it's up to you to decide
If you're pigeonholed as a victim
Or put the brakes on your slide
It's a tricky one this mental health but your attitude will define
How you're balancing
Day to day, we try managing
Yeah this life ain't fairy tales but
Your deeper fears they need challenging, aiyo
Pieces of this board game
Trying to roll the dice so it's in our favour
The calmness that we're seeking
Can only come from harnessing something greater
It's all you (It's all you), yeah it's all you
It only takes one day to think (Takes one day)
I'm tired of living on the brink, yeah
I'm tired of living on the brink, oh-oh, oh
When the tension overwhelms and you start to doubt yourself
When direction feels so alien you put things on the shelf
Like your dreams ain't shit
Transmitting blockades to your mind's eye
These conscious inhibitions occupy your limelight
I'm quite right
'Cause I ain't the only one that's been here
And turned around my fortunes with a reset so my head's clear
Now I sit upon my throne
No need to wear a crown
'Cause I've got the strength to fight when chips are down
