Dread - Intellectual

[Verse 1: Elijah Kyle]

I think losing you took a part of my soul

The first person you truly love can cut the deepest, I know

I'm off the deep end and the water's going over my face

Feels like there's weights around my feet but I'm just walking in place

I wish that I could run from these emotions

I wish I found some comfort in the ones I hold the closest

Too certain feeling of uncertainty from what's below us

Or up above, its got me questioning each other's motives

Maybe I'm scared of watching life pass while constantly losing track of the time

Self-reflection is important to addrеss what's on my mind

But I don't understand why I can never lеave you behind

Why does everything remind me of when I could call you mine?

I feel selfish even speaking on this topic from the past

We forgive but can't forget, I always thought that this would last

Memories can tend to haunt us, watch this dust turn into ash

To disintegrate all our moments of our overshadowed past

I've been tryna lay low (Lay low)

But I'm sick of these emotions in my head

Overthinking way too much

And I can't stop this feeling of dread, it's exhausting

My head never stops

Yeah this baggage above me

It's scary when you love someone so much that it's hard to breathe when they ain't with you

And even when they're really gone, you know they're always with you

Right inside your mental scrolling through previous memories

The Snapchats haunt you but you pretend that they're the enemy

Just knock it off, you know that you're lying to yourself

Love never truly dies, it's just dying out for help

Build a rose from the concrete, then watched it burn in flames

Went and threw away our plans just to leave me with this pain

I've been tryna lay low (Lay low)

But I'm sick of these emotions in my head

Overthinking way too much

And I can't stop this feeling of dread, it's exhausting

My head never stops

Yeah this baggage above me

I'm sleeping until five, every day feels the same

Walking outside and the skies look grey

I don't wanna live if you ain't livin'

I don't wanna die if you ain't dyin'

I don't wanna tread, I want problems

I just wanna deal with 'em in silence
