The Woods

One year in heaven
All thanks to you
Being this high, I had to come down
I should've knew
Heard a call in the distance
Telling me to return
Where the pools ain't for swimming
And the trees always burn
Forest fires too common these days
Why the fuck no one honest these days
You built me a mountain where they couldn't get to me
But I can't seem to get on it these days
Something tells me
This was your purpose
Show me love
Make me less nervous
Then let me go when I was ready
But what if I said, I wasn't ready
No

I ain't ever felt this confused
Been a while since I had nothing to lose
I ain't ever felt this confused
I ain't ever been this used

Where this God I hear so much about
We in need of some saving
Even after it all
I think bout you on the daily
Cuz they spreading lies bout people like us
Forgetting the lives of people like us
For us to survive I'd give it all up
Maybe if I hide, that could be enough
My sister walking the street
Assaulted by three
I seen the pictures, the blood on the sheets
But she so scared, she won't even speak
She cried to me on the phone
Can't get through this on our own, no
Scared of my mind when I'm alone
I cried when you ain't come home

I ain't ever felt this confused
Been a while since I had nothing to lose
I ain't ever felt this confused
I ain't ever been this used
