Zzyzx Road Lyrics

[Verse 1: Ekoh]
This life will mimic art, if that's the truth
Then I truly hope my future in the walls of this vocal booth
My pen will guide me
Yeah, that paper is my canvas
I paint a picture, roll the dice, and I'ma take my chances
I'd give my life to make you smile a bit
I'm feelin' fine, but know the surface hasn't changed a bit
I haven't learned a lot, but understand the fact is
When you're writing from your soul, there ain't nobody that can silence this
Used to wonder if I can make it
Almost spent my lifetime seekin' validation
And for the first time ever, I feel completely hole
That's four years in the makin', from writin' this shit to pushin' demos
That's dedication, that's grind, 24/7
Like if I work hard enough through Hell, then I can build my Heaven
I measure happiness by smiles in this crowd
And when you put those headphones, and really look inside this music now
I let it shine 'cause this is all I got
And when I started lovin' who I am, I stopped hating what I'm not
Now I can look in the mirror and check the past
And accept it enough to finally see my future clearer
I guess it's just a part of growin' pains
And I'm reminded of those old injuries every time it rains
Traveled through these thorns long enough to find a rose
I never wanted perfection, just somethin' I can hold

[Chorus: Jamieboy]
When the rain comes down
And you fall into the ground
You know you gotta keep holdin' on
Keep holdin' on

If the clouds close in
And you feel like it's the end
You know you gotta keep holdin' on
Keep holdin' on

[Verse 2: Ekoh]
I used to think that I was so different
I used to pray to God, but always thought he was too busy to listen
I've seen the ugly I become when I make thoughts my prison
And music taught me everything I thought I knew; I didn't
I spent my youth tryna fit the mold
And tryna impress those people who never gave a fuck at all
I used to hate the days, so focused on what people say
Now I just can't wait to grab that mic and get up on that stage
I love my craft in every sense of the word
And know the greatest songs sung are the ones that are yet to be heard
They say the two most important days of your life:
The day that you were born, and the day that you figure out why
Maybe I found it, 'cause I know this is not a mistake
And music is expression, it's not just somethin' that we make
It's somethin' that we live and breathe, just to take the stress
And cope with conflict in the hopes to make your burdens less
If you're writin' this in hopes to get famous
Then you're just talkin' with that ego, you're not speakin' my language
This is 'bout the journey, not the destination
And I'm facin' some problems with decisions that I'm scared of makin'
Hold my head up
I know what I'm made of
And take that muzzle off, because this mouth will never stay shut
The real story is experience that isn't told
I took some time to reflect...
...on Zzyzx Road

[Chorus: Jamieboy]
When the rain comes down
And you fall into the ground
You know you gotta keep holdin' on
Keep holdin' on

If the clouds close in
And you feel like it's the end
You know you gotta keep holdin' on
Keep holdin' on

[Outro – Chorus: Jamieboy]
When the rain comes down
And you fall into the ground
You know you gotta keep holdin' on
Keep holdin' on

If the clouds close in
And you feel like it's the end
You know you gotta keep holdin' on
Keep holdin' on
