Maybe I should of have taken different steps
Maybe the friends I have let in now I regret
Questioning life literally on a quest
To the future but keep thinking about the past
Memories of Eighth street for y'all that don't know me
It's time to take the wheel and handle these dreams before the
Nightmares end up being reality, controlling the road in front of me
But I commander of chief. What's inside of me?
Dictates every single move, when I start to rise to my feet
Delete the feeling of defeat that spontaneously
Pops up inside of me, steers me away from my dreams
I always had these thoughts in my mind that if I
Continued to grind in it, I would a reach a point of no return
And pass my peers on the way,kinda symbolically saying
When Toby sang back in the day "You've been left behind"
I'm the one who disappeared on that hill
And left you to stand still I'm beyond the precipice/press a piss
That's a very steep cliff, static to relieve oneself
Can't move at all like a urinal stall/your in a stall
How many artist must we sacrifice to as we metaphorically say
The same exact message with every single line
Written on every page. Man, what I'm meaning to say
Here I go once again, on this infinity loop, In this time we

Create a world within the dark
A void that's all your own to fill
With movement and light
Colors or night
Drifting off, while held secure
In the blur of what could be
Mismatched passages of time
Suspended by my sealed eyelids

I set my bars way high, so that mug is barely at reach
I speak peace to my folks, between the West and East
I spread my arms wide open like Jesus the Christ
Sing my flows into music and they know it as NICE
I started to think, "what it's gonna take?"
My guitar started this journey it took me back to a place
I had that determination to play the songs that we all played
On the radio, I listened and let playback and play on cassette tapes
Hit stop, press rewind, and ask Scott, and then play it again
Play Eagles Stockton, California constant on the play back
I used to asked myself, "where am I supposed to press these
Strings so I could sound just like that?"
I was in this struggle to figure out these new chords
My fingers weren't holding them, I was ready to abort
But I remembered, "anything you could do, I could probably do it better"
I practice till I collapsed, and fell asleep, in my dreams I was actually good
But when I woke up,I realized that I still sucked
This guitar ain't making the noise, ignored the voice "homie, give up"
I knew in my mind I was gonna get better, just hold up
And your gonna feel my voice in music
My mind came here to do this
My heart needed a beat, so my soul can come right through it
It is the feelin that I know that I'm getting again
Learning to walk with you in the garden of Eden again
But I know can't even take any one of friends
To the one who created this world... dang

Within the dark
A void that's all your own to fill
With movement and light
Colors or night
Drifting off, while held secure
In the blur of what could be
Mismatched passages of time
Suspended by my sealed eyelids

A world where I don't feel so lonely
Where I long to be there with you nearly
A place where we both are meeting
An eclectic space we're making
Perhaps this is our clandestine
Area that was predestine
Progression to the connection
Return back to the location
That started this all
Momentum in my possession
But I feel that I'm dreaming
Until I meet the end of my time
Will you remember me? and that one time
Together in the dark and the light
We're both dreaming away, we're dreaming away
