Through the Eyes of a Hurricane

Lights dim

Somewhere in the east of the city

These thoughts swim between

Reality and a dream

I just wanna be alone for a minute

I'm just thinking about how I ain't been home for a minute

Thinking like oh my God, this life

She wants more of mine

Uh, I guess you weren’t ready for me

I heard most of my past have gone quiet on me

See, drinks with you, became drinks over you

But I think I’m going sober man that shit's over due

Truth is

All my brothers with me are some of the realest

Fearless clearest minded souls ever untold

You must have been mistaken

Don’t get it fucked up

Can’t afford to get it fucked up right now

Black and white lenses distort the perspective

Promised my mum I’d be back before the end of this sentence

And we’re alright with the darker side

It’s inevitable, waiting for a dream

And we’re alright with the darker side

It’s inevitable, waiting for a dream

I tell my story

How dare you tell it for me

I walked into your world, you watched me leave through the other side

She was wishing for more, Channel & Dior

While I was washing my sins in some Dom Pérignon

This vertigo got my back up against the views

That I grew in a darkroom

I told you I’d be back before the sun sets

Breaking bread with my flat mates

I’m grounded now I’m over that

Yeah, and now she wants me back

I guess that’s only right

She only wants a home at the highest heights

3 and a half thousand miles of perspective

But still couldn’t outrun the stars grip of the pencil

I can help you to overcome all your fears

Let them water fall like your tears

Overcome your nightmares for a dream

They say there’s no life in the comfort zone

And no life where the cameras go

So where were you when I was coming up

I took my time and in time I trust

If beauty is pain, art is risk, what does that make love

Treading a fine line on my way to God

The path feels straight vertical

Follow the skyscrapers to the place that we’ve been dreaming of

I promise I won’t let you fall this time

Finally satisfied with everything I’ve left behind

And we’re alright with the darker side

It’s inevitable, waiting for a dream

And I'm falling, falling, falling

Will you be there when I can see

[Extra Notes]

I’ve been rethinking Paris

Everything that happened

I feel apprehensive

Too reach out

And send my blessings

Forget about mishaps

Life’s too short

To back track

Looked in your eyes

A hand shake

Over prides back

I’ve been working hard

In and out of uni

Life’s a movie

I just keep it under wraps

And let the music speak for me

This is a part of me

I never started I’ll l never finish

Probably die

Half way through a lyric

We’re all good till our dreams outgrow our friendship

You didn’t share my vision

Its fruition blew your mind

Things change over time

I learnt to embrace that

I can’t persuade you to be the friend that you were way back

Your mother had my photo on her fridge

All the years we’ve missed

I just text you what’s been good

Tryna build a bridge

But you ain't tryna cross

Already crossed me off

When they love you for the cold days

I’m still here like always

So caught up in the life style

Reminiscing on the old days

We got it like that

We

Do you love me do you trust me

Told me you don’t really know home

Said it ain't the same if I ain't there

My room
