Canis Major - I Vs Me lyrics

[Verse 1] I am a man who has suffered the loss I notice all these promises broke with my heart When I have thoughts of all these flaws, it reopen the scars But don't judge it by it's effects without knowin' the cause I learned to grow separate without growin' apart The hate enlightens me cause I know it's love in the dark The sayin' "pain is pleasure" becomin' an art Of life or d**h at that point of a draw I'm not afraid to fall cause I'll excell some It's like I rise above these places I fell from Like a safe landing is very seldom Like one who's invited, don't mean you're welcome These mountains I'm movin', you can not scale none But continue to reach for what you are held from My dreams always survive when they try to k** 'em And it's helpin' me turn All of my wounds to wisdom [Hook x2] You see I'm doin' what I can But first impressions can be your last chance And I finally understand All these responsibilities as man But I'm so far gone I wonder if this the place I belong Because I'm at a point of no return But my heart is still close to home [Verse 2] Don't beg for permission, just ask for forgiveness Cause man's actions is only good as his intentions I'm still tryna learn how to have a careful distance While travelin' with a heart that's not as winded But before I'll ever live on my knees I'll die on my feet, it's a fight, but still I breathe Deep as the grave of any person deceased Cause when I inhale it's mostly a reflection of me See I define life as being breathtaking We don't value what we have earned unless it's cremated We can't predict the future unless we create it But be yourself cause everybody else is taken I can't keep givin' 'em help I'm tired of draggin' dead weight along, bury Yourself My dreams always survive when they try to k** 'em And it's helpin' me turn All of my wounds to wisdom [Hook x2]
