Need a house to be a home, but the walls speak a thousand words Bury a debt in my head, I could burst into flame and never feel the burn Something outta nothing they were preaching, but I've been used to the taste of dirt Screaming for anybody to save me, but the music's where you find the words How was I supposed to keep a level head, with everybody weighing me down Spending hours on the phone and keep em venting it out Taking in all of the pain, hearing em beg for a change Wide smiles when the bodies about It's like we plugged into a screen, switched off from within Gather confidence and drive from the drug in our skin Second hand, no clock, with the hearts we were given And aren't we forgiven, we never found the light to begin I see the eyes Covered with the hand we own Never watch the name evolve, knowing that we're meant to grow Suffer till the end of time, damn I wish you all could breathe Wait for the moment to strike, take the chance you need Moment to moment is not how to live, begging for a push you never offered to give Sickness, it begins in the mind Seeing everything, leaving us blind Gotta be that age old saying, I've heard it many times before You could have the key to greatness, but all we can do is show the door I wanna raise that banner now, I never meant to let you down But it's time for me to settle down, time to be that selfish now Velvet eyes, velvet eyes, velvet eyes Suffer from those velvet eyes velvet eyes velvet eyes Really wanna see the velvet sky, velvet sky, velvet sky We just gotta take our time, take our time, take, our, time Wandering through a street, cars buzzing to your right To the left is an alleyway that'll take you home Try to envision this shit if you can Give in to what you know or catch a ride to the throne It's so irrelevant though, I'm positive I'll do this shit on my own Where I'm stopping well there's nobody home So the only option in keeping it known I believe in so much more than I own So much more than I'm owed Is to jump in front of a ride and hope I make it to the other side No prep, just dive in, man I'll be right This is how you're sounding, while you're chasing a dream Patience you need, the consequence of rushing it's greed There's so many you see, lining offices in dark rooms Rocking them hard suits, pushing you to hard truth Never throw a fist, but they be punishing the past you Say its never so, but you want it, then you can charge through It's been a ride, and imma tell it as so I'll do whatever if its helping us grow And if you spend the time to the side watching fellas that blow You ain't nothing till you're letting them know That you're next in line, so take your time, no other day Tomorrow comes, and we could die, but anyway Save your mind, take those shots, or run away Case closed on another day Gotta be that age old saying, I've heard it many times before You could have the key to greatness, but all we can do is show the door I wanna raise that banner now, I never meant to let you down But it's time for me to settle down, time to be that selfish now Velvet eyes, velvet eyes, velvet eyes Suffer from those velvet eyes velvet eyes velvet eyes Really wanna see the velvet sky, velvet sky, velvet sky We just gotta take our time, take our time, take, our, time
