Beyond the Black Rainbow

7:30 AM, crawlin' out my head
Pictures on my wall moving closer to my bed
Think I'm still trippin' off that acid
Still feel it movin' in my body through the racket
Backwards, drown above the water
The dark spirits circle like piranha
Can't shake it, exposed, no sacred soul
Too afraid to go home and face it
The soul naked, lost and afraid of changin'
Mocked by the things that made him
Degraded, enslaved to tame the hate racin'
Deep in the heart of man, we all chase it
We try to bury the burden we carry always
The brain is leaking, they bleeding me from the cross-ways
I pray that God stays deep where the heart lays
I tried to heal but got lost in a dark place

(Hook)
Beyond the black rainbow the soul can shine bright
But it's lost and it's bitter and it's searching for light
Beyond the northern darkness, beyond the cold and heartless
Beyond your yesterday or your tomorrow, where the heart is
Beyond the anger building, beyond the way you feeling
In the present, keep ya eyes focus on and keep it marchin'
Beyond the black rainbow the soul can shine bright
Beyond the black rainbow, beyond the black rainbow is the light

That's when I set it off, everybody read it wrong
Everybody doubted without a doubt so I let it all
Shine through the light that I stay emanatin'
The fire burnin' hot, I spit it out and get it blazin'
Soul suckers, they stay waitin'
Creepin' on the come-up, impatient to stay snakin'
They crave power, they helpless and cold
Imagine them as children, broken and sold down the river
No love, treated like a sinner
Went from victim to the victimizer
Life without a glimmer of hope
Now they've gone searchin' for they soul
It's hard to live right when you ain't got no one to hold
When you shattered to the bone from the past that you've known
And you can't understand why your fam left the fold
Alone for so long until the bitterness grows
And explodes then you take it out on anybody close

(Hook)
Beyond the black rainbow the soul can shine bright
But it's lost and it's bitter and it's searching for light
Beyond the northern darkness, beyond the cold and heartless
Beyond your yesterday or your tomorrow, where the heart is
Beyond the anger building, beyond the way you feeling
In the present, keep ya eyes focus on and keep it marchin'
Beyond the black rainbow the soul can shine bright
Beyond the black rainbow, beyond the black rainbow is the light

I was like that, then I learned to fight that
Stopped blamin' everybody else for where my life's at
No matter what I been through, bleed it through the pencil
Get out all my issues, take a shit and spit fuel
Lived through hell, I know the shit's real
When everything is tumbling, you rollin' downhill
Everybody bleeds but don't nobody say how it feels
So we go through the pain but we keep it concealed
We are the same, you and I, flesh and bone
Been through the rain, if you livin' then there's hope
Yo what's ya name, where you from, where you goin'
It's nice to meet you, I been searchin' for so long
Your soul was never lost, it's always been inside
On the other side of struggle is a beautiful life
On the other side of anger is a life without the old you
Trust me, before you enter search deep, you must know you

(Hook)
Beyond the black rainbow the soul can shine bright
But it's lost and it's bitter and it's searching for light
Beyond the northern darkness, beyond the cold and heartless
Beyond your yesterday or your tomorrow, where the heart is
Beyond the anger building, beyond the way you feeling
In the present, keep ya eyes focus on and keep it marchin'
Beyond the black rainbow the soul can shine bright
Beyond the black rainbow, beyond the black rainbow is the light
