Again - Zipsa

written & created by zipsa using ai lyrics [Verse 1] Is this the right path? I’m losing my sight Swallowed by the shadows, starving for light Pupils dilated, been staring too long At a past that is broken and a right that is wrong One step forward, but the air feels thin Tired of the skin that I’m shivering in How long have I drifted? The years turn to haze Losing the "me" from my younger days I look at NF, yeah, he kept the dream "When I grow up," he ripped through the seam But how did he breathe in this suffocating dark? While I’m drowning in a swamp, looking for a spark Just a body in the mud, trying not to sink Losing my mind on the edge of the brink. [Hook] Put "a" before it, it ain't mine yet Repeat "a"gain 'til the gain is set Strip the "a", I’ll embrace the pain I’ll find the key within the gain Won't stop, won't be afraid I’ll win the war that I have made [Verse 2] What am I chasing? What’s the end of the road? Ever feel like a story that’s never been told? I dreamed of the lead, the star of the show But I’m just an extra with nowhere to go A replaceable part in a cold machine Just a shadow flickering on a gray screen Yeah, I’m lost, let’s call it what it is Defining myself? That’s a luxury, kid So I talk to myself in these lonely tracks Building a mirror through the hollow cracks I wanted the "stable," I wanted the "sane" But I’m hunting a life that’s outside the rain It’s selfish to love when your soul is unknown But I can’t just sit here and turn into stone To find my definition, to find my way I gotta start moving 'til I finally see. [Hook] Put "a" before it, it ain't mine yet Repeat "a"gain 'til the gain is set Strip the "a", I’ll embrace the pain I’ll find the key within the gain Won't stop, won't be afraid I’ll win the war that I have made [Verse 3] Sun hits the floor on a lazy Sunday World tells me "sleep," get lost in the play But I check the clock, eyes heavy as lead "Just a bit more," says the voice in my head NO. Headsets on, clothes changed in a blur Running 'til the visions of the city occur Face turning red, lungs gasping for air Push-ups 'til I collapse in a state of despair Starting my weekend while the rest of 'em dream Because I’m out of time, or so it would seem I don’t know the way, I don’t know the goal But I know that the silence is killing my soul So I do the chores that I hate to repeat I take the risks, I embrace the defeat New trials, new scars, let the danger begin The world is a map that I’m wandering in Others pick a spot and they walk 'til it’s through I’m struggling to find what is honest and true They repeat the steps to a place on the chart I repeat the struggle 'til I find my heart [Hook] Put "a" before it, it ain't mine yet Repeat "a"gain 'til the gain is set Strip the "a", I’ll embrace the pain I’ll find the key within the gain Won't stop, won't be afraid I’ll win the war that I have made
