Ashes Rising

[Kyle Lucas]
Yo, I don't really like these people in here
Feels evil in here
I don't really know that girl over there
I don't wanna talk to her I don't care
Tryna get the courage she can't, she's scared
So she don't ever talk to me she just stares
I've been through this, I'm a little prepared
Let me save you the trouble, emotions spared
Let me dip out, bounce yeah
Feet don't even touch the ground it's all air
Little bit of love though a lot more hate
Let me get up out of here right downstairs
Far from sober, crossing over
Casanova when I'm out here
Walls are closing in, lost all hope again
They wanna kick it like lounge chairs
Too many fake friends, even more fake problems
Thinking that my buzz or some money will solve them
Mom thinking that her boy, she lost him
This industry took me and turned me monster
Now my girl is cautious
All these rumors often got her sick to her stomach
Feeling nauseaus but all these vices got me exhausted
Heart is bouncing telling me to stay calm
Get some counseling little downsome
Way too many downers, abusing music is my only outlet my only output
Sit back, let my thoughts collect to things of my past I just can't correct
And I tend to obsess and regress while this demon inside just eats me alive

[Captain Midnite]
Take me away
Let the ashes keep burning
I'm not the same
Man that I used to be
But I'll still fly
If it feels like I'm falling

[OnCue]
New chapter and new pages talking like we fucking strangers
Want more answers over text messages
Wild how things change ain't it
Can't paint it can't put a finger on it
Momma said get off the pot and go and put a ring up on it
See the thing about it
These thoughts in my head so clouded
Bury my sorrows turn this ladder
I hide behind my verses and my melodies
Knew that this was over for a while, your eyes were telling me
Everything that I did it fell short of what you needed
Wish that I could give you more, I stayed faithful
Wish you seen it but you can't
So I plan to go and snatch up all this dough
I'm just hoping and wishing that money and fame can fill the hole left by you
Nothing new, I'm still just so self-indulgent
Cigarette smoking, barely feel the dread
My chest ripped open
Sitting here alone with my mind gone
Bygones be bygones
My problems just pile on

[Captain Midnite]
Take me away
Let the ashes keep burning
I'm not the same
Man that I used to be
I'll still fly
If it feels like I'm falling
