Icarus(Wings of Wax)

I see em tryna build an image and it's based off being gimmicks
Me I'm tryna be myself and I ain't asking for forgiveness
From the ones who couldn't give it or determine if I meant it
You only live once and yet they treat it like a scrimmage
My body is a temple so I'm careful with the tenants
And lookin out for envy cause you know it's in attendance
On the verge of reaching greatness so you know it's out for vengeance
2020 hit us all but 21 was still relentless
I'm looking at the census
We won't come to senses
We rather be divided by the lies and false conviction
I'm focused on my mission
It's all part of my ambition
You can call it ammunition
That I fire when you listen
Along with my respect
I'm a snatch it off they neck
When the reaper come collect
I ain't holding no regrets
So take it as a threat when I say I'm gettin mine
Lookin up at Mt. Olympus and I'm bout to start the climb
Here I come

I'm a make it to the top and that's just facts
Even when the heat falls hard down on my back
Cause I don't wanna watch things fall fall fall
I'm just flying on these wings of wax

Time waits for no one so why waste it chasing after fiction
Once you get it
All that's standing there is just an after image
When your after image
Your reflection start to lack in realness
Numb of feeling
And your socially inside a mental prison
Through my prism
I reflect your jealousies and criticisms
Filter em through insecurities or how they lack conviction
I am the collision of when faith gets fear into submission
That is not a given it's a battle I wage every minute
Now I get it
If I never flew too high I might've missed it
How I'm living reaching for the sun until it's realistic
Reinventing normal and assuring that my auras different
At the core it's potent and euphoric and the freedom with it
Is understated
I think it's fair to say that I graduated
Elevated to the sky
So elated
You wanna know the reason why
Here's the basic
I'll chase my dreams until I die

I'm a make it to the top and that's just facts
Even when the heat falls hard down on my back
Cause I don't wanna watch things fall fall fall
I'm just flying on these wings of wax

Jumping off the cliff and I ain't scared to let my winds flap
Jumping off the cliff and I ain't scared to let my winds flap
Gonna make it happen that's my word and yeah I mean that
Jumping off the cliff and I ain't scared to let my winds flap
This is just a message to myself because I need that
Jumping off the cliff
Gotta know you matter if ever want to see that

Stepping into purpose is a lonely road to travel out
On the road greatness you encounter stress and heavy doubt
Climbing up the ladder can't expect for it to level out
Floating on a prayer just gotta lift my wings and spread em out
Trust in everything that you created that's what you brought you here
Living in my passion cause I love it that's the lesson here
Destination Legend I won't stop until I make it there
Gonna touch the Sun I need the son to make my goal appear

I'm a make it to the top and that's just facts
Even when the heat falls hard down on my back
Cause I don't wanna watch things fall fall fall
I'm just flying on these wings of wax
