Hue

I live deep in my mind, I’m fine, I’m fine
Unsure what I’ll find I crossed the line, crossed the line

The line between reality and what I really want to be
but thats not what they taught to me.

The more you think, the less likely you’ll do it
I was in the coop then I went and flew it

My knowlege was too short all my writing grew it
I didnt think my rhymes were great so I worked until I knew it

Because life is a drawn out grind we’re just trying to get through, and the hardest part about it is not changing our own hue, in a society so backwards nobody knows whats false or true, they say, “figure it all out”, but they refuse to give a clue.
