Soul City

Same blood
Different soul
That's all I really have to know

It's in the dirt
And stitches sewn
Yes I'm aware I'll die alone

I can't learn if I always forget it
I can't grow if I always regret it
I know I'm not the first one to have said it
But still I have to give myself a little credit

A positive mind isn't possible all the time
It takes hard work and dedication for that peace of mind
I'm not a pro in the terms of philosophy
But I'm a mother-F-ing expert at just being me

Hiding in the city
Isn't it a pity
The trees are the antennas to the stars

Walking through the forest
Trying to find my purpose
The stars are what help guide you through the dark
