Down This Road

Whoa
That's more like it
Yeah

These speakers are not ready
O G Mage

I think I'm losing my way
I think I'm resistant to change
I'm in pursuit of happiness but everything seems out of place

There's a fire within and it burns in a rage
My soul is consumed but my body just age
Growing up came with some dark sides
Sometimes I wish I could rewind the days

And get to a place where I saw the light
This darkness gone ruin my eyes
And deep down I feel like I'm already blind
'til I see the future is bright

Feels like I'm living a lie
Doubting myself every step of the way
What do you see when you look in my eyes
I only see all the hurt and the pain

And it fills up the music I make
I reach for my goal but it gets in the way
I'm a product of a conflicted mind
But I look to my past and learn from my mistakes

Try to find love, I can't afford the luxury
My mind is a gift and a curse
I am a genius like I'd always want to be
But there's a price to fit in the world

I have been down this road one too many times
I know its no surprise
I get lost in your way its a rumble inside my brain
I keep wrestling the angels and the devils on my shoulder
All this hocus-pocus keeps driving me crazy

Whoa
This isn't going the way that I planned
This train has derailed it is way out of line
So I look up to heaven and search for a sign
Drown out my pain with a bottle of wine

My dreams go way out of focus
My fires, they runs out of flames
My soul osteoporosis
Until my will is broken again

Why does it feel like I'm stuck in a loop
Surrounded by friends but I'm closer to loneliness
I wanna quit but I'm making a move
"You will be great" a lotta people told me that

If it's a dream, I hope I wake
If it isn't, I hope I don't break
They told me to take it one step at a time
But this is turning to a leap of faith

So I wish I could fly
If wishes were horses, this wish I would ride
Wrap up my burden, toss it to the side
Maybe out of sight is truly out of mind

Take it away, the source of my pain
I been praying hoping for a change
I hope I don't break into a thousand pieces
None of the greats every had it easy

I have been down this road one too many times
I know its no surprise
I get lost in your way its a rumble inside my brain
I keep wrestling the angels and the devils on my shoulder
All this hocus-pocus keeps driving me crazy

Tryna hold on but theses hoaxes get the best of me
Lord I wanna focus, don't wanna lose my way
