Kabir - City of Rain lyrics

(Hook - Repeat x2) In the City of Rain You can hear the Sirens screaming Bodies leaving Aurora Bridge with their wings spread Good friends I let slip from my hands Swimming in the deep end of Seattle (Verse 1) I caused a lot of pain in my life Too many stains on my white shirt The fight hurts less the harder I press The mic and bless a crowd Like a gun to my mouth Put my head up in the clouds And my friends don't doubt me So whatever you've got I've got a better peace of mind Cause my minds in pieces And I'm not trying to find them This season is all about recognizing My friends as their love shines When they're rhyming, I see it Everyone could use a little healing To look eachother in the eyes Go on hold your head up high My people too often shy and scared To speak Their feelings I'll let you know right now How deep this rabbit hole's sleeping Grab A cold weekend insert a cypher On the grow, with a million thoughts And some lifers Tommy Chunging hard and security guards Chilling 'roung the parking Lot With the skinny on the cops Word to god, we got our wings spread like some eagles In Bellingham Following the flocks of seagulls And every bird's wings grow feeble But you're my close friend So let me Know before you leave, cool? (Hook - Repeat x2) (Verse 2) Don't push me, I'm closer to the edge Focused on my breath, friends that I protect Taking bigger steps, treat'em with respect Give'em Space, until there's nothing left But nothing lasts, so I'll wait it out Patient, hoping for the pa** I'll Be that guardian angel On and off the court Just don't treat it as a Sport And don't press fast forward You feel that heartbeat Knockin' under the floorboards I listen for the words "never more" And then I k** it Cause times now and times short Stay posted like a raven Or let the wind chart your course I'm in the prime of my life And every line that I write's Another page of me raging against The dying of the light The harder we fall the better we are You just gotta pick yourself up I wish I was given the chance to Befriend everyone But truth is most days I'm drained And all I can do is wait For my friends who sustain me To help me step up to the plate This present moment spans like a canyon Living in a constant freefall Never landing emptyhanded And I'll admit that it was scary at first But if I was buried alive There's no better place on earth than here (Hook - Repeat x2 - then outtro)
