Balance

Cold walls that I built for you
Just to dig me out with silver spoons
No I didn't, see it coming, oh
Cold walls that i'm stuck inside
I guess beauty see's what I can't find
I didn't, no I didn't, see it coming, (yeah) oh

Uh, I'm tryin' to find a balance deep within my selfish actions
I share my passions, see I pass 'em 'round like passion fruit just pass the truth
There's nothing new, look inside yourself you see it to
(I'm tellin' you think it through before it makes you blue
'Cause see these thoughts we have could be a clue
Got to keep a balance 'cause in life the balance is the glue
Try to leap a challenge and the challenge will come back on you)
Fall on you and break you too and God forbid you make it through
So here I stay, a palace full of malice 'till we callus up, buckle up and sober up
See it's, time to face the ugly truth
Look me me in my eyes a broken tooth tells no lies
Seek my wisdom, ill advised
(But see it's so easy to puff some lye, tell some lies to myself
I'm doin' fine but in my eyes you see no sign of life
Drain my motivation and my drive
Is this what it means to be alive?
I should probably clear my mind, yeah)

Don't trip up, slip up, give up, yo!
Don't trip up, slip up, just find your balance
Don't trip up, slip up, give up, yo!
Don't trip up, slip up, just find your balance

Yo, find your balance go ahead let's see what happens
In your absence watch 'em pick apart your very fuckin' atoms, see-
(I'm near it all the time, I hear 'em at it all the time
Watch 'em chime in on every fuckin' obstacle you climb)
It's a sign, you better see it first or get the fuck up out of mine
I'm talkin' mentions, talkin' money, talkin' lanes
(You talk links up in your chain, all the buzz around your name
How to blow and rise to fame, think you need to link your brain)
All this pain I can't sustain I think it's time to light the flame
See, the game has gotten old and I am tired and growing cold
(Man, I'm tired of bein' bold, can't nobody hold a candle to us
People sell their soul just to try to sell some records to us)
Things they change now I keep up from a range
Never talk to people straight, way to busy saving face
(Say a tounge in cheek phrase, watch the people get amazed
Drop a bomb to their dismay, your opinion you can save)

Don't trip up, slip up, give up, yo!
Don't trip up, slip up, just find your balance
Don't trip up, slip up, give up, yo!
Don't trip up, slip up, just find your balance

I'm back again another written verse in pen
Another written verse again, I wonder when it's gonna end
See my skeleton's buried deep inside these walls
This darkness follows me closely, but it doesn't talk
I wonder often how close it's gonna get
Between these frightened fingertips and paper thin walls
I been through it all, enough to know how the domino falls
So stack your chips and find your balance, and make it quick
(So I, let the snare and the kick, kick faces in
I'm sick of wondering if suffering will end
Ah, here we go again trapped in circles we begin
Back to square one and once you reach the end, you should reach within
Assess and balance all the lessons that you learned
All the lessons that you earned, better take them to the urn
If you don't you'll get burnt, this should be a big concern
This should bring you up to terms, up to speed, now it's your turn)

Don't trip up, slip up, give up, yo!
Don't trip up, slip up, just find your balance
Don't trip up, slip up, give up, yo!
Don't trip up, slip up, just find your balance

Cold walls that I built for you
Just to dig me out with silver spoons
No I didn't, see it coming, oh
