Concrete

[Verse 1: Joshua Luke Smith]
Man, I’ve been down to somethin’ like I just downed somethin’
My doubt is so profound, I’ve been screaming without a sound
Everything I thought was certain couldn't move or my progression
Now I’m staring at this mic barrel like a Smith & Wesson
Making my last confession
Forget is man’s regression
Father pray for me and turn my bars to intercession
No weapon formed against me will prosper, that’s what they told me
If I turn it to my temple then my soul wouldn’t be holy
Will you bury my body when they come out here and stone me?
Don’t let me die alone, I know hell on earth is lonely
To all who know me closely will you hear them speaking falsely
Pour some whisky on the concrete let me rest underneath these cold streets

[Chorus: Jacques Miché]
Looking at this concrete
Trying to feel complete
I touch it with my hand and watch it melt into sand as it slips through my fingers and I lose every opinion that I had

Looking at this concrete
Trying to feel complete
I touch it with my hand and watch it melt into sand as it slips through my fingers and I lose every opinion that I had

[Verse 2: Joshua Luke Smith]
Sometimes I don’t even leave the dark
Cause I’m afraid of things ending before they even start
I just want to be a king til’ you’re queen of hearts
But I’ve been acting like a phantom with my feelings masked
Been out something for some time without expressing it
I guess I still fear rejection but to hell with it
Cause Heaven never questions if we’re relevant
That’s the game the devil plays and we never win
Funny how my sins being affectionate
Certainty always fools me like magician tricks
Like a meadow made of concrete, man it’s desolate
Rather you meet the man I am than the impressionist

[Chorus: Jacques Miché]
Looking at this concrete
Trying to feel complete
I touch it with my hand and watch it melt into sand as it slips through my fingers and I lose every opinion that I had

Looking at this concrete
Trying to feel complete
I touch it with my hand and watch it melt into sand as it slips through my fingers and I lose every opinion that I had

[Bridge: Joshua Luke Smith & Jacques Miché]
Lately I’ve been learning
Nothing here is certain
I find myself observing
The silence of my tomb

And lately I’ve been yearning
For roads that seem deserted
I walk by the disconcerted
Might lead to something new

Lately I’ve been learning
Nothing here is certain
I find myself observing
The silence of my tomb

And lately I’ve been yearning
For roads that seem deserted
I walk by the disconcerted
Might lead to something new

[Chorus: Jacques Miché]
Looking at this concrete
Trying to feel complete
I touch it with my hand and watch it melt into sand as it slips through my fingers and I lose every opinion that I had

Looking at this concrete
Trying to feel complete
I touch it with my hand and watch it melt into sand as it slips through my fingers and I lose every opinion that I had
