Verse 1 (Bonsai Keychain):
I hope you heed to this advice whenever you are dying
Expiration date is on its way it is arriving
Search and you'll keep finding
Your quest is only blinding
Sit, see, watch, and breathe
This is true unbinding
To reach for peace is to retreat
Simply stop rewinding
And living life is binary
That means it's truth or lying
Are you minding?
Find your comfort in smiling
'cause the past didn't last
The future is d**h
And getting mad at your dad
Never really got you ahead
Choose forgiveness instead
Verse 2 (Future Tom):
I'm tryin' to loosen up this anger
sh**s old time to throw it on the hanger
It will put you in danger
Turn your friends to strangers
If you're always gunnin' like a ranger
Then we runnin' playa
No time for self-failure
Just trying to prepare you
Carry anger like they feathers
Let them blow with the weather
With the change of the winds
The sun can shine forever
Without a cloud of thought
No self-doubt, all out
Now is the moment to shake and grow
Deroot and eat the fruits of a plentiful harvest
Your mind is an artist and it's starving
Carving tally marks in the darkness
Of the cell you call a head
Are you alive or dead?
Full of sh** or well-fed, well-read
You should grab a book instead you deadhead
So be grateful of life and live it
Since only one is given
Verse 3 (Bonsai Keychain)
If from nothing comes suffering
I am wondering
Just what is the source
Of all my worries and woes
With my mind closed like a door
I will no longer explore
And when I see with open eyes
My heart becomes more wide
To let go or take sides
Deny that I will die
Or remind myself I'm alive
Verse 4 (Future Tom)
So look on the bright side
Unless you like bumping into walls at night
Grudges smudges the vision, impairing your insight
Stop and smell the roses, time to breathe in life
Yeah the fight is tough
But these the stripes we need right?
The reason why we bleed right?
Think about that next time you sleep at night
