about

the first official single off of the upcoming album Skyward Spiral, dropping September 21st.

lyrics

question what we believe in
the devil’s a greedy demon
who revels to leave me weeping
i settle to read ephesians
no level exceeds my reach and
no rebel exceeds my preach
disheveled but this head’ll
be leading no conceding speeches

i

take no L’s, i play so well
you’ll catch these hands so fast, i could replace odell
i used to talk a lot more, now i just lay low, dwell
and let my payroll swell, y’all on the same old hell?

well

best of luck and good riddance
i keep these scrubs at a minimum 20 foot distance
no wonder they look different
because i have been cutting ties
with these suckers like
i burnt down the whole entire brooklyn bridge
and took it swimming
i believe i was put in a position
to push the limit
until every single act that you book is finished
so go grab the book of guinness and put me in it
otherwise i’ve had enough of this crooked business

all my idols let me down
all my idols let me down though
they could never wear the crown
they could never wear your crown though
all my idols let me down
all my idols let me down though
they could never wear your crown
they could never wear your crown though

everything is everything
what is meant to be will be
after winter, must come spring
change it comes eventually
i am not the centerpiece
i am an accessory
a lot of me is temporary
bob and weave the cemetery?

pointless

kind of like the lottery, a lot of disappointment
from false posse camaraderie from who i'm not boys with
thought i was a hot commodity back when i was boy priv
ever-blue skies but never knew i would
hoist with my own petard
self-inflicted broken heart
selflessness with no regard
for anything to close the scar
heaviness i chose the part
that lefty wrist just wrote the bars
that lefty whipped a loaner car
that left me with a loner star
than texas, shouts to tony dark
i cannot be phony here
i could never tap it in
but i could never show these tears
i could only pray this little light of mine will help
skyward spiral as long as i never idolize myself
i’ll let you down

said all my idols let me down
all my idols let me down though
they could never wear your crown
they could never wear your crown though
all my idols let me down
they ain't idols to me now though
they could never wear your crown
they could never wear Your crown though!
