Tomcantsleep - Undertow Lyrics

Eavesdrop on the private conversation
That I'm having with myself in the form of consultation
What is it I'm running from? Who is it I'm chasin'?
If I do stop, there will not be a replacement
Just sayin'... Been spending time in Hell's basement
Carving up the walls, if you're asking how my day's spent
Spinning in this never ending tornado
I'm the fallen angel tryna swap out his scorched halo
For something more shiny... But all he could afford was grimy
Submerged in the dirt with a verse is where you'll find me
Always keep a spare, just in case somebody wants it
Open up the door and see inside a house that's haunted
If you do got it, then don't be afraid to flaunt it
But don't get caught slipping when you're running through the gauntlet

Also, don't act like you are if you ain't on shit
No one likes a novice pretending he's accomplished
To be completely honest in this flow of streaming conscious
Never been a fan of keeping time with gleaming watches
Instead of wearing insecurities, I cut my losses
Ironic how the ones that make the rules, burn the crosses
That's off topic, I just thought that I should bring it up
This is for the sleepers who do not remember dreams enough
Keep it tucked in a safe place
Keep tryna find the combination that could break banks
Wind and water... I try to keep my feet on solid ground
But the undertow forces ten toes to not be down
So I drown in the ocean of my own thoughts
Crumbling the bridge to inner peace that I won't cross
And I don't know why... But I'm too alive to die
So I float until I get close to what's solidified
Hands full of sand til the waves wash it all away
And cover up the everything from yesterday we saw today
