Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a sadness in the heart now of the imitation zone
Don't forget about your brothers if you go at it alone
And I could almost take a whole life
To disclose how I feel about the now
Can't give you an insightful conclusion
[Verse 2]
So, if time was predicated on abstractions in a void
Do not subjugate yourself capitulating to the noise
If I could reach out through the screen
And give you something to believe in, I would
But I'm with you in amongst the confusion
[Verse 3]
It's okay, don't fear
Go be part of the new sincere
Do not let your heart go
To shit enslaved to ephemera
[Verse 4]
Our childhood is memory still ascended high in dreams
And I'm suspendin' what I held for preconceptions of my being
I only say this to affirm our time is short
But we've will to carry on
Transcend with our scars and confusions
[Verse 5]
I was furious and dumb, lightin' fires through the town
I'd play the fiddle and forget whatever I was pissed about
I know that most of you relates to some extent
And God I know how lame it sounds
But I'm glad I became more human
[Verse 6]
Stay, don't go
We're like halfway through the halftime show
Do not let this one end
Before you emerge as the winner
[Verse 7]
Hey it's me, I'm bringing you a case of dry
And words un-engendered, fuck this
Dumb city sleeps in the night
And I won't leave you hangin' in the wind
So, let me love with a vengeance
My sad, sweet, and unfinished friend
[Verse 8]
And we can go and mock the skyline now
Those bougie windows full of dickheads we don't
Know a thing about, you wanna feel absolved tonight
I've heard what you're sayin', it's okay not to be so alright
[Verse 9]
But don't be alone
Did I tell you that I spent most
Of my sister's wedding stoned?
Say what you want, with blood and bone
And stick a finger in their faces
When they say you're overblown
[Verse 10]
Say yes to sun, say yes to pain
Say yes to sticking with a city
Through a thousand days of rain
Say yes to grace, say no to spite
Say yes to this, say yes to you
Say yes to me, say yes to love
Say yes to life
[Verse 11]
Say, say yes to life
