Macklemore - Excavate lyrics

[Hook/Chorus – Saint Claire] Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out, peel my bones away Grab my window, shut my (?) out, excavate my pain [Verse 1 – Macklemore] If I could read the world my notebook and these thoughts in it Would they judge me or love me for what I’ve written? Tryna get closer to spirt that enters the body It’s the vessel like I’m not in it In 50-something years, I won’t be here There’ll be a kid with some headphones covering his ears Walking ’round a hallway, dreaming of ideas Find himself in the sound ’cause music is a mirror What you looking for? What you headed towards? What’s your name worth when they mention yours? When you leave here, are you stepping forward? Can you remember your intention when they question yours? They’re gonna question yours, they’re gonna question yours I’ve been at rock bottom and I’m headed North If you don’t love yourself, what’s the respect for? If you don’t love life, the check won’t correct yours Excavate [Hook/Chorus – Saint Claire] Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out, peel my bones away Grab my window, shut my (?) out, excavate my pain And I found peace, and I found peace And I found peace [Verse 2 – Macklemore] I had this vision of my d**h Surrounded by people I love and respect And the baby blue Cadillac hearse Pulling me ’round the block that I rep The greatest fear that I’ve ever kept is dying with regrets Like was I just alive for success Or did I leave a better life for the rest? My greatest achievement isn’t the dollars My greatest achievement isn’t the followers My greatest achievement isn’t the accolades My greatest achievement is my daughter Waking up in the morning, being a father Watching the light kiss her eyelids Hearing her sing along to Chance And being like, yeah, that’s my kid The light started to glow And the saxophone (?) train started to blow (?) laying in the snow, turn on my headphones Couple miles to go before I run out of road Excavate [Hook/Chorus – Saint Claire] Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out, peel my bones away Grab my window, shut my (?) out, excavate my pain And I found peace, and I found peace And I found peace, and I found peace [Outro – Macklemore] Hold me up into the light and study every part of me I’m an open book, no, I don’t mind, but sometimes I’m hard to read Just flesh and bone, I’m headed home But this life is so hard to lead But who am I when they cut the lights and nobody’s watching me? Hold me up into the light and study every part of me I’m an open book, no, I don’t mind, but sometimes I’m hard to read Just flesh and bone, I’m headed home But this life is so hard to lead But who am I when they cut the lights and nobody’s watching me?
