[Hook: KayR and (Erin)]
Everything is so clear
(This is not what it seems)
I can see it from here
(You've been blinded by dreams)
It's to good to be true
(These pieces aren't a collage)
Don't know what I can do
(This is just a mirage)
[Verse 1: KayR]
So many lights in my vision, now my writing is fishing
Dropping lines in a wishing well and I'm fighting the friction
Of this Bic upon this diction. Call me science fiction
Out of this world and out of your jurisdiction
No judging. Court is adjourned
Cause I can hear the sounds of crowds and my mind is spurred
I make it burn, make it burn. Yeah, it's my turn
Like I flipped the script from Scarface, no stone's unturned
I believe I can make it. How can I doubt it?
This new feeling in my bones and beat my heart's pounding
Is the only thing I rhyme to. Now I can hear
I know what I'm seeing and, well, everything is so clear
[Hook]
[Verse 2: KayR]
I flipped when I couldn't clear that Popular sample
Thought it was the only way to get a plaque on the mantle
Thought that I couldn't handle failure, protected myself
Said, "If the album got shelved, I'd blame the cards I got dealt
Not the way that I played them." And to all of the voyeurs
I'd blame the flop on Stephen Schwartz's lawyers
Thinking if I got this clearance that I'd have popped this year and
At the same time, man, my Pops was fearing
If I drop this year and take off from here then
His prediction for the future just would not appear, man
Sorry Pops, but I'm a still be what I have to be
I can see the bright lights now, don't need gravity, ugh
[Hook]
[Bridge: KayR and (Erin)]
I'm never going back
(Come back)
I'm never going back
(Come back)
I'm never going back
(Come back)
I'm never going back
(Come back x 5)
[Outro: Erin]
This is not what it seems
You've been blinded by dreams
These pieces aren't a collage
This is just a mirage
