Lost in Labyrinths (Carefully)

Focus on the subject which you don't understand
Object of your iris gotta open up instead
To let the light in
To lit what's so dim
To let you in them
If you wanna hit rem
I recommend then
Commence beginnings
My shame malignant
So I lay awake in bed
Waiting waiting waiting for the clues
On how to thread these waters
Carefully... Carefully... Care for me... Carefully
Carefully... Carefully... Care for me... Carefully

How you live so carefree
I was paranoid in the corner
Where my ancestors loitered
With the bottle and the boiler
How you a brother's keeper
When your brother getting tortured
When your momma's joints hurt her
Work work work
My conscious was the pointer
Work work work
If you wanna live til older
Work work work
If you wanna be stronger
Thought money longer would cure
Made me worse
Mentality cursed me
Made life hearse
And I was still hurt in the corner
In the t-shirt the hand-me-downs
With the reworks no footwork
Never ten-toes-down
The allure of a fame
So world reknowned
A cure to the hurt
Over how
Momma said put you as in me first
I looked at her and said only if you go first

Focus on the subject which you don't understand
Object of your iris gotta open up instead
To let the light in
To lit what's so dim
To let you in them
If you wanna hit rem
I recommend then
Commence beginnings
My shame malignant
So I lay awake in bed
Waiting waiting waiting for the clues
On how to thread these waters
Carefully... Carefully... Care for me... Carefully
Carefully... Carefully... Care for me... Carefully

How you live so carefree
I was backed up in a corner
Where my ancestors loitered
Putting me down
Rubbing down my shoulders
Pushing me out
To kill the beholder
We the grandsons of Poseidon
Poppa used to hit us with the belt like orion
It was written in the stars that we'd be whipped lions
Because licking not words are a reason for crying
So
Every time he hit us it was like praying to the highest
Our tears libations for our forefather giants
The mindset ever since the white man met the islands
Kill kill kill
I went after the beholder he struck me down
Felt my soul grow colder he pinned me down
Felt my heart go lower he touched me how
My stomach in knots and that's where I loitered

Surrounded by doves but ever imposer
Surrounded by hugs but ever the loner
Surrounded by love but ever beholder
Devilish grin with heat behold ya

Cold shoulders and floors colder
Hit the ground running tryna dig through boulders
The only way forward toward but order order in the court sir
Maybe heading towards the foreign is in order

Fate be towers tumble to restore her
Lady aeon sophi glowed told ya
Hold he the one who beholds you
Showed me the cosmos of the old you

Alien my own soul
Shadow silhouette of soul
Take Yin by the Yang let's head home
Let the moon and the stars be our overture
Let the rest of the light be where I loiter

Let it dim the dark where he and him joined her
Let it spin the spark where they were disjointed
Let it reject the mark the part which wanders
Let it reflect my heart my art as I become
World

Surrounded by tears but never so warmer
Surrounded by fears but never so bolder
Surrounded by years but never so older
My stomach in knots and now embroidered

Focus on the subject which you don't understand
Object of your iris gotten up instead
To let the light in
To lit what's so dim
To let you in them
If you wanna hit rem
I recommend then
Commence beginnings
My shame malignant
So I lay awake in bed
Waiting waiting waiting for the clues
On how to thread these waters
Carefully... Carefully... Care for me... Carefully
Carefully... Care for me... Carefully
