Preservation

I don't see no way around it
This the only thing that keeping me from drowning
I don't see no way around it
I don't see no way around it

I remember when I wrote rhymes with a fountain
You think I hit my peak?
I ain't even found my mountain yet
I think it's buried under past regrets
They won't tell me what the meaning of success is
And I don't have the evidence you can achieve it
I don't know if there's a point to believing
Boy they really go and throw you in the deep end

I don't see no way around it
This the only thing that keeping me from drowning
I don't see no way around it
I don't see no way around it
I don't see no way around it
This the only thing that keeping me from drowning
I don't see no way around it
I don't see no way around it

If I go too far down
If I lose touch with you
Please just know that I cared
About the experience that we shared

I don't see no way around it
Will I leave this world the same way I found it
I don't see no way around it
I don't see no way around it
When the rain comes down I find relief
Water on the ground puddle up into a stream
I slip away, the current starts carrying me
Eventually leading and leaving me out in the sea
I don't see no way
No way around it
This the only thing
That is keeping me from drowning

If I go too far down
If I lose touch with you
Please just know that I cared
About the experience that we shared

The only safety is in making it happen
Not in trying to preserve it
Try this with your body and you will see
Many of you have tried haven't you
Because you want to live for a long time
So tomorrow you eat all the best food
And save it, don't use it
If you want we can provide you a coffin
Because anyway you will need it very soon
There is no safety in trying to save it
That's not the way life is made
The only way to save it is to use it
In stagnation there is no safety
