shallow soul.

You don't know about real loss
'Cause that only occurs when you love something
More than you love yourself
And don't you ever dare to love anybody that much

Born a failure
How's it feel now that you can't save him?
My mind runs away to places that had me caved in
Off the bottle complaining about past judges and cold pavements
I'm tracing the abusers on my skin
I'm craving to use her for my wins
And I'm dramatic
Combatting my lust by the masses
But I can't seem to break out my habit
Too late for apologies
Hypnotic through those words I'll always be
I was part of the mythology
Men like me lack in quality but boom in quantity
Ripping rabbits from my conscience
Girl of my dreams I lost it
In the shallow river I lay at the bottom
And shake the cause of all my problems
Bed stained with lost solace
Home breaking through loose columns
Having trouble sticking to truth
'Cause all I can do is boot wrongs, um
And when time froze up hope you don't choke
'Cause your soul hold ups the reasons for love

I've been thinking about it lately
I was never alive
Scrutinized by barriers all my life
Too inferior to realize the real lies
Running from the streets that reel eyes in
Paving the hatred for myself daily
War made me turn to lust to soothe my ravings
I'm buff sharing
Cold relations with women thinking it'll save me
But all it do is take me
And she deserved better
But I can't be with her
I admit my wrongs
Lost problems are brought up I lost the love
Fucked up once, fucked up twice
I am the man with a shallow soul walking through the night
I am the man who sleeps with the bitch called life
I am the man mistaken to walk with Christ
The one true messiah
Ego taking shots at me through the fire
The prince drenched in purple
Through the rain I admire
Made songs with my inner riot
I desire to be the man y'all require
Losing myself amidst the twisted wires
Unplug my fire
So I can peacefully breathe deep in my sleep when I retire
Fuck my values
Living with the statues
But let me show you how I devalue the weakest ever
And how I be reaching the bleakest weather under deep professors
I teach the lessons
So you can see the false prefectures that we live in
But fuck it
At this point? I ain't even breathing
But best believe I won't be here next season
So listen close
I reached a point where all I am is a ghost
And my most profound self lost itself on the road
What glitters ain't gold
And we all wanna die old but nobody wants to face the life so cold
So we stick around, walking in the desert with a shallow soul
