[Verse 1]

They said its all about perspective, HUH

Well I have always been selective, maybe that's why I wasn't selected

Remember back in my old school when I was perfecting kungfu

At my recesses

Access this

Irony that life kicks me when I least expect it

Address this

Agony in me present before I fleed depression

I just wouldn't have it, forget a knife's sharp mind

Reality hitting blunt as a hatchet

My spiritual was lacking

Trying to fight temptation as the devil dealt his enchantments

My psyche in tangent

Due to actions, I commit due to my bad habits

Whispers telling me fall prey to the madness

But the only way I stayed afloat could've been magic

SO LOOk

Blind hate steals happiness just like a CROOK

Shift your perspective the glass is half FULL

Gunshots outside my window had me SHOOK

Thankful that those nights my life was TOOK

Average is analyst say most don't survive long enough to be put in bandages

Therefore, am I a product of tragedy or have miracles left me part of the salvages?


[Chorus]

To see the powerlines, yeah

Navigating my way through this crowded mind, yeah

Although I feel this pain

Lord guide me through this rain

Cause I can see the powerlines, yeah

Navigating my way through this crowded mind, yeah

Although I feel this pain

Lord guide me through this rain

Woah Woah


[Verse 2]


[in deeper distorted voice]

Where is your umbrella at?

In your mind, it's raining dogs while it's hailing cats

And everyone around wants you through Hell and back and that's a fact for sure

Just like for certain there is crack in hoods

My agents tell me that you think you could

Beat me, so I fight you just because

I can't afford you being close to Lord

Therefore


[normal voice]

I know myself is packed with good

You kept me on hiatus. Trying to keep me blind for the portraits He was painting

Portraying me as the one who is heinous

Looking guilty out here, as if you the plaintiff

Trapped now but I see A way out I know that imma make it

Angels telling me keep running and escape it

Who am I to die and deny greatness

This purgatory ain't eternal he shielding me from raining

So check it look!


[in higher distorted voice]

So what you want me to presume

For having hope that I'm a mere buffoon?

No, I won't be cloaked in drear and gloom

The choke you hold won't end my breathing soon

His light keeps me out of shadows of doom

My faith is like Popeye on spinach foods

So with this seed, I'll make this mountain move

Powerlines, civilization coming soon


[Chorus]

To see the powerlines, yeah

Navigating my way through this crowded mind, yeah

Although I feel this pain

Lord guide me through this rain

Cause I can see the powerlines, yeah

Navigating my way through this crowded mind, yeah

Although I feel this pain

Lord guide me through this rain

Woah Woah


[Bridge/Outro]

And it's like rain rain go away

Come again another day

You will not drive me insane

I know Imma find a way

I know imma make a way

I know imma find a way

I know I'll escape someday

Powerlines sometime today

Rain rain go away

Come again another day

You will not drive me insane

I know Imma find a way

I know imma make a way

I know imma find a way

I know I'll escape someday

Powerlines sometime today
