From Yesterday To Tomorrow

I struggle to see life through my own eyes

Instead I see life through my own lines

Gravity uplifting me but I can't fly

In my mind I fell off a 12 story building, but I didn't die

I woke up, wondering what life would be like If there was no tomorrow

Closed my eyes and saw life clearer than Stevie Wonder

My mind took me to another place

I then realised what hate could do to ones fate

If I have kids, i'll be a better father than my own

I won't plant them in stone, i'll plant them in chrome

so no one could do them any harm

My father became the figure I throw about

Not the sort of role model figure i would take out

I can't help but think about all the stuff that ate me up inside

I see the dark night close and turn to light

Like a flame burning through my thoughts, because thoughts burnt through me

I tried to talk to my minds eye but he wasn't interested in me

My heart and soul caught a cold

The soul i was once down with, sold

Picture my sorrow drowning before the clocks turn to tomorrow

Then picture A drowning sorrow before a wave of hate followed

A burst of emotion with the impact of the town on his shoulders

Words so deadly that it caused the resurrection of Jesus

I turned my head over, face down on the pillow

I woke up sweating, but at least I got to see tomorrow.
