[Verse 1]:
There's a deep focus;
In the way that I move and the way that I talk
There’s a deep focus;
In the way I carry my cross, in the ways I carry this cross
[Pre-Chorus]:
But it gets heavy
It becomes deadly
When I'm mixing my emotions with all these drugs without caution
It gets heavy'
It becomes deadly
It’s taking control of the inside
And it leaves no place to hide
[Chorus]:
Even when I focus
Try to smell the roses'
All I see is the thorns, pulling flesh from my bones
I can't even focus
[Verse 2]:
There's a deep focus;
In the things that I write
To try and feel with all my might
I have to process all my wounds;
To try and make some room for all things good
And all things new
[Pre-Chorus]:
But it gets heavy
It becomes deadly
When I'm mixing my emotions with all these drugs
Without caution
It gets heavy
It becomes deadly
It's taking control of the inside
And it leaves no place to hide
[Chorus]:
Even when I focus
Try to smell the roses
All I see is the thorns pulling flesh from my bones
I can't even focus
[Verse 3]:
It knows me better than I know myself
I don't even have a fighting chance
It knows my tides
It knows my peaks
It knows my branches and leaves
It’s been here
It’s been here
Since I was here
