Erik Madrid - Truce lyrics

[Verse 1] Yeah, and it goes like this Love at first sight, gra** you on the greenest You're music to their ears, symphony completed You see it, and you believe From top of your New Era, to the souls on your Adidas You couldn't put a foot wrong even if you wanted There's magic in your moves, they all tell you that you got it But that vibe got a shelf life and the clocks ticking You can tell when it felt right, then it didn't, and They say it's gone to your head Dammit, it was all love when you wasn't a threat And scare yourself to d**h, expectations ain't met Second guess every move That paranoia don't mean it ain't true, it's on you No one hear you calling for help Battle lines in your mind, in a war with yourself And you drown in the shots, ringing out all around you like "Man down, man down, man down" [Hook] And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know the breaks And I know, I know, I know, I know, it's all to lose But I know, I know, I know, you are not your mistakes So I call, I call, I call, I call, I call a truce [Verse 2] Yeah, preempting my own fate Feel me fading away at the going rate Convinced and inevitable, fall from grace Fear mixed, we're hating myself for sh** that I can't change For my opinion over anyone else You think there's anything they're saying I ain't thought of myself? f** it I'm nothing, less that that A fraud man, better if I wasn't here Wrestle those thoughts to the floor Like a f** if I defeat myself, before my turn I prefer to a**ume the worst, then to get hurt When success is self worth, lines blur Perfect storm of outside force, and self-saboteur 'Cause the world scratch the surface, barely sinks teeth in But personal demons, could tear me to pieces I know they say to know, 'you're not alone' But no one else inside this f**ing war zone Like [Hook] And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know the breaks And I know, I know, I know, I know, it's all to lose But I know, I know, I know, you are not your mistakes So I call, I call, I call, I call, I call a truce [Verse 3] Yeah, so this it how it ends Better getting by with a little help from you're friends Going without, accepting what up within Self-respect and self-forgiveness That's a hell of a thing And if it's out of my hands and control Then I don't really talk about that anymore Won't always be the good days, for sure it'll storm But you can't feel the black cloud above 'til it's gone Yeah but live and let live, Coup de grâce I gets heavy but just know, this too shall pa** Man, solace is a promise land Two hands, either end of an olive branch And it cannot change without reason My inner peace, still a long shot, but I'm reaching I know what, when I say it's all good and I actually believe it Believe it, believe it Yeah [Hook] And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know the breaks (I know the breaks) And I know, I know, I know, I know, it's all to lose (yeah) But I know, I know, I know, you are not your mistakes (You are not your mistakes) So I call, I call, I call, I call, I call a truce [Post-Hook] And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know the breaks And I know, I know, I know, I know, it's all to lose But I know, I know, I know, you are not your mistakes So I call, I call, I call, I call, I call a truce [Outro] And sometimes I'm like, "f** it, why even try?" Then a message from a fan, will say I saved their life So just know, inspiration has a two-way street I drive myself crazy, then you save me So let's see where the new day leads Let the motor run, I know it can be hard trynna open up But at the heart of the matter, man it's only love And if you don't know your own story, no one does
