Three Day Journey

"I sometimes feel like I am impersonating the dark subconscious of the whole human race"

To touch me is a luxury that most never experience

A Lyricist, Loungin in the shadow where my spirit is

I'm baring this cross for so long

There's not a care in this world that can cause me to join the heretics

I carry this solution inside and can't express it

I try to shake the Word and escape the adolescence

The lessons that God taught me won't let me rest easy

There's no escapin' this whole creation that sees me

I be a ray of light amongst the dark

Half of this poem I write, in the night I travel alone

Mappin' my own route

Tryin' to pull out as soon as possible

Because every new person I meet is a new obstacle

[?] oracles I speak with are bleak with

Forecast if I keep this

Damn, I got a secret

I seated in a hull of a ship

My destination unknown now

Forsaken my Lord I'm all alone now

And lack the know how to show my folks how to make it

Motivated by the hatred in a world where nothing is sacred

My knees shakin' my blood runs cold

I start tremblin'

My heart dangling by a thread

Voices in my head say

All I know is I don't wanna know what I know

To be in this position

(Hell no!)

I'm going fishin'

I'm sorta wishin' my people didn't concern me

(But they do!)

So I got a three day journey [X2]

Up above I hear the waves rushin'

Heart bangin' like percussion

Mucus in my lungs slushin'

Just then, two men seize me

Release me among strangers

One spoke for him, his voice reveals anger

"The danger that we're in is because of you

We don't know you. What's your name?"

"Jonah"

"We're gonna have to throw you over"

Before I knew it I was movin' toward the ragin' sea

Then creation turned against me

There's no savin' me

I should call out to God but what's the chance of him answerin'?

A more disobedient man, there hasn't been

There's no chance for me, so fuck it I'll drown

I'll just relax and let the strong current take me down

As I approach the abyss with body and soul

Yo, this large mouth fish swallowed me whole!

From the belly of the ship to the belly of the fish

And the only thing that my brain thinks is this

[Chorus X2]

All I know is I don't wanna know what I know

To be in this position

(Hell no!)

I'm going fishin'

I'm sorta wishin' my people didn't concern me

(But they do!)

So I got a three day journey [X2]

There is no escapin' this situation

I can't even die

I ran out of tears and can't even cry

I broke down and saw God, I should have followed his plan

Then the fish went and spit, spit me out of the land

I land on dry land

Hot sand scorchin' my steps

Sunlight burn down on my neck

A little plant grew up around me

And shade me with leaves

It's a three day journey to my people I believe

As long as I'm livin' I can still accept the mission

I'm fishin' for those who can listen to this religion

As long as I'm livin' I can still accept the mission

I'm fishin' for those who can listen to this religion

[Chorus X2]

All I know is I don't wanna know what I know

To be in this position

(Hell no!)

I'm going fishin'

I'm sorta wishin' my people didn't concern me

(But they do!)

So I got a three day journey [X2]
