Narrow Legend

[Verse 1]
Pages after pages, I write and I write
I’m crumpling papers cause I can never get it right
Night after night reflecting, thinking, and dreaming
And of course the price to all this would be to lose everything
There’s a place in my mind, no one knows where it hides
My fantasy is flying, it’s a castle in the sky
But that’s what happens when you follow stars
I create my own orders cause I’m the czar
Making art with my hands, creating lines and rhymes
Pen and pencil scribbling endlessly from the scribe
Kingdom so empty you can even call it haunted
Stuck within a loop, please have me astonished
I can never finish a story, it takes too much effort
Famine is upon me as I travel through this desert
Life in a cycle, running around forever in laps
Sometimes I even question my purpose to rap
Journey so misty and dark, trials and tribulations
The clock is always ticking so I can never be patient
Goals and dreams, I got my whole life planned out
My plan, my career, my life, that’s all it’s about
Yeah, I know I always talk about not wasting time
Ironic cause I’d be wasting time talking ‘bout time
Working on the future never working on what’s important
Gazing at the same sun and clouds every single morning
Everyone thinks I’m living the life, but really I’m trapped
Vision so focused and narrow that I don’t need a map
Living in this mansion is starting to make me insane
Even when the day shines all I see and feel is rain
Is this the life I really want to live? Not really
But this life surely got my lifespan set under fifty
Live fast and die young? I don’t want no part in it
Flame is so bright at first then it slowly diminishes
If everything happened the way that I wanted it to
There would be no point in living so fix me as a statue
All hail the king, long live the king
They used to cheer that now it’s the opposite of that
I always ramble, talk, and speak about the same topics
Bad era, diseased phase, wicked games, dark age
Keep telling myself that I got it under control
But inside my heart I know I’m really out of control
Wilding out to the fullest till I regain conscience
Tired, empty, bored, and exhausted grievance
As the king of my life I go and make my own decisions
Plan out my entire life including my story and vision
But with that said I wouldn’t have any sort of adventure
Captured in my vision so I heed no lectures
I made sure to cut off all loose ends, no alliances
The sea and wind are raging but I boldly show defiance
Glowing pride and showing proud I did it on my own
But the answer lies in my heart, I can’t do it alone
Lone wolf still dangerous tryna kill anything near
That’s why everyone including him are stuck in fear
Skeptics, haters, and unbelievers tryna make me fall
Led me to build and construct some heavy walls
Destined to become fiction, a myth, a parable
Not recorded in the journal, diary, or chronicle
Nervous to my bones, I wonder what’s in store
Sick of this place I need a life worth dying for
Please Lord take over I can’t bear this throne no more
Take me as I am because I know I’m forever yours
I’m so corrupt and sinful that I could never stand to
Wear the crown of thorns for what I did and will do
I’m so thankful, I’m so grateful, make my eyes see
Heal my body, mind, soul, and heart so they won’t bleed
I’m not a robot but a rebel in the system
Yeah we some underground kings so you better listen
Gotta stop holding grudges and burdens and focus on now
Jesus take the wheel, having you as my king I allow
I’d be the one tryna write up a magnificent story
But my story will never ever compare to God’s story
Putting my chances in the dice, my life is on the line
But there is no need to since I have God by my side
I’m a prince not a king, the Holy Spirit’s son
I live to serve the true king thy will be done
