Shawn Phillips - Numb To It lyrics

Numb To It by Shawn Phillips Album: The Growing Pains (Verse 1) Im on the path I was given, its just another mission This worlds made of cells, were all in a prison If it was my decision, ide beg you all to listen Light shining through a prism to a new dimension Learn about ascension, its all in your beliefs A world an*lyzed by the power and the greed Balance on this beam before it leaves a hole in me Cause its hard to see the truth were taught to deceive Become a working man with dirt on each sleeve No mind to undermine the goals they want to reach Devine time to be your own kind and retreat Forget every lesson that you learned til this beat Use every word I speak to lure defeat A game where the playing field is open to the streets New players up against the varsity team Carve the score in stone with nothing but my bones (chorusx2) Cause every intentions good But this bad decision making And now im mis understood Take me as a gimmick Really its all good I barley catch feelings My body is all numb (Verse 2) Follow my every move, be my shadow Im building bridges from the oustide of a castle Who knew becoming a king would be a hastle And doing it is hard while im dealing with these a**holes But I learn to make it work Took it all for granted when I heard about the percs Now im left standing with my hands covered in dirt From diggin real deep, the treasure is in the heart The art is in the brain and you gotta learn to tame it Once you do the beast in the cage goes crazy I feel like an animal and nobody can contain me Just say your proud of me cause you really can't blame me For wanting money so bad Cause growing up its something I never had Ide love to see me dad come begging for the cash Ide probably give him sh** and tell him to whip his a** (chorusx2) Cause every intentions good But this bad decision making And now im mis understood Take me as a gimmick Really its all good I barley catch feelings My body is all numb
