lyrics

[Verse 1: Bodi]
At ten, I thought about severing my wrists
Not because I wasn’t loved – it just is what it is
Learned life’s love since I was a kid
Grew to realize father time was the bitch
It’s all good, sky holds fist
Building castles in the clouds brick by brick
Foundation on the ground inch by inch
Crossing off my laundry list with each wish
Chin and chest both positively charged
So there aint a thing wrong with taking some scars
March forward til the sun’s in my hands
Stand on my own two, manifest the promised land, and
I will never give up/I got a lust for the minds I touch
Fight from beginning til the bubble goes bust
Regardless of the cards I’ll produce a royal flush, cause
Enough gold in the yellow brick road
Couldn’t get me to fold - I’m goin all in
A mission to be giving back more than I’ve been given
Living in a world where too many stop livin'
At the very beginning, so they don’t start swimming
Water’s fine, you just gotta get in
The shoulders of giants, blind Osiris
Let the Iris find this Midas life in front of your eyelids

[Hook: K.Raydio]
Growing up I wished I could’ve been somebody else
I was too scared of myself, but I know
If I could change a thing, it would be for somebody else
Because it’s all that I know

[Verse 2: Bodi]
At ten, I decided god wasn’t in the sky
But that don’t mean I didn’t think it was alive
I saw it in the eyes of every human being
All of em angels even if the bell don’t ring
I was a snot nosed kid
Saw a lot of cheap shots, took em on the bridge
And try though I did, they often got the best of me
But giving up is the key for disaster’s recipe
I could never be free
Til I seized destiny sitting right in front of me
Picked up a pen and started on these manuscripts
Oratories of this captain’s battleships
When the storm came to sink my vessel
The life boats were scripted in pencil
Successful only if I provide light
To the little kids hearing the words I write
They say the sky’s the limit
Well if it is, lets stretch it to infinite
And give our all from the day that we crawl
Enough strength to shatter that wall
Impossible isn’t in the vocabulary
Those who say it is are mad that they carry
A shoulder with a chip so they fix to rip you quick
Give a gift and lift em up until the sky is kissed

[Hook]
