[Chorus]

Everyone's times gonna fade away

Dust to dust and Amazing Grace

Only thing I'm leaving is my last name

Ooh in an empty grave


[Verse 1]

Ryan I have to get a few things off of my chest

I'm been giving music my heart and I will until I'm dead

When they put me in this box with my voice inside their head

They'll remember my name too and the legacy I left

My name is Blindsight, my vision is fading with time

The needle's in my eye, one day I will be completely blind

Like fuck it I'ma keep driving, fuck a crutch

Clutch on my dreams, there's nothing I want more

Nothing that I can't see in the crowd everybody want to stare at me

But when I open my mouth nobody's cares they just glare at me

Like 'cause he's blind I just can't be your friend

Like there's nothing I can do so you stop it before it begins

I swear I don't want this but the stigma is on me

When they see me they pause but they do not acknowledge me

They dodge and keep walking it's obvious they saw me

I'm positive they're watching but they never stop to talk to me, no


[Chorus]

Everyone's times gonna fade away

Dust to dust and Amazing Grace

Only thing I'm leaving is my last name

Ooh in an empty grave


[Verse 2]

I don't want none of their pity, keep that all to yourself

I don't want to be that person that you feel like needs help

I can make it even sightless I believe in my sound

My worth is priceless and I don't need them keeping me down

I won't, a little fish swimming in the swamps with the gators

Got piranha's on my tail trying to slaughter Crusaders

I keep looking forward as the water swallows invaders

I just follow the waves and hope that God be my savior

I am grateful for the people the I have met along the way

Crypt, Hi Rez, Duanetv, Chvse, and Vin Jay

And Upchurch your music has been lifting me upward

All of you have been part of the reason I won't give up, word

Everyone wants to leave their own legacy behind

But not everyone makes it slowly, forgotten memories die

Lost in a matter of time put in a box eternal life

Dust on their stone and not a single rose in sight


[Chorus]

Everyone's times gonna fade away

Dust to dust and Amazing Grace

Only thing I'm leaving is my last name

Ooh in an empty grave


[Verse 3]

It's the end of your career now, how do you feel?

Did you accomplish what you wanted, did you make your dreams real?

Did you stop making excuses and start making deals?

Did you ever take a chance? Did you ever the roll the wheel?

Was your life too much of a challenge for you to continue fighting?

Was the booth too big for your voice to cut through all of the silence too quiet

Were you tired of being flat? No spares in the back

Be aware of these facts homie where you at?

I'm right here as a matter of fact

I did, I have an amazing life and I'm proud of my kid

Brightest of minds, I'm making music all of the time

And I changed a bit, never quit, never say I didn't try

I have no regrets to my girls I'ma legend

I'm living in their hearts, only place that's feels like heaven

When I'm old and grey and I take my last breath

There's no questions I lived my life the best that's a blessing (Blindsight, Blindsight)


[Chorus]

Everyone's times gonna fade away

Dust to dust and Amazing Grace

Only thing I'm leaving is my last name

Ooh in an empty grave
