[Verse 1]

I'm at my wits end

Thinking about the possible convictions I was given during life times that put me in positions such as this

It's nothing like I envisioned. I'm invisible

Provisional placements by now are wearing thin

Comparative to none. My parables have come to life

Use my power pole extend to reach a top towers heights

Once there stare on out onto the world that's underneath me

I'm stressed out but I found that I'll survive through guided imagery

I'm in between the periods of heart ache and confidence

I took the time to find myself without the fear consequence

The problem is my opulence of doubt will come scathe me

But maybe that's the rear kick I need to break the box I'm in

I'm honest with myself and figured out just how life works

This undergoing feeling cannot be put into right words

The unexplainable and highly unobtainable

Is straining to the brain when it's the only way to tame the skull


[Hook]

Forever is a long time, baby. I'm sorry

Tell me what outlasts that? (What does?)

Cos people change like the seasons for many different reasons

But for one I cannot bounce back (forgive me)

So If you take my word then I'll take your hand

And maybe this time it'll change

But don't go saying forever cos forevers not promised

Trust me when I go and explain


[Verse 2]

There is Nirvana or Moksha

Heaven or Hell

When we are gone we could be floating through dimensions & realms

It's hard to tell without the evidence. We reckon with faith

So we take it day by day till then we'll just have to wait

Dig it eternity concerns me cos it's just so long

So I prolong the plot thusly till I say 'so long'

But why'd I stay so long? Only to make more songs

And it's sad that when you're gone others lives will go on

And that's the process. The way it always was and always will be

Until I meet that cycle I ponder on what will kill me

You feel me? I'm only getting older now from here out

You hear me loud and clear. I'm tearing up inside a clear house

Visible. Knowing that I'm ageing makes me miserable

No mystery. It's physical. I give without reciprocals

The whippersnapper now is but a fogy who is difficult to deal with

Cannot access the bottom from the pinnacle


[Hook]

Forever is a long time, baby. I'm sorry

Tell me what outlasts that? (What does?)

Cos people change like the seasons for many different reasons

But for one I cannot bounce back (forgive me)

So If you take my word then I'll take your hand

And maybe this time it'll change

But don't go saying forever cos forevers not promised

Trust me when I go and explain


[Verse 3]

I've learned a lot in my 22 years

I've learned to tango with emotions and to cope with my fears

I'm still a novice with my optic on the goal of control

To end the clock's acceleration is my ace in the hole

Harvested my fields for my seeds to grow

Shouted for an hour from my tower for the trees to know

That I will not roll over or be over stood by time

CosI live in the now and yo that's not a state of mind

And evermores a clever word. I've escaped it's clutches

I'm living for today and ahead of these mother fuckers

I am running till the suns up. Gunning for the one-ups

To keep me in the game long enough until the suns touched

The accomplishments of others they are plenty

Because some have some and other players have many

And why? That's not hard it's how they handle their time

Make the best out of your present while I do that mine

And maybe this time it'll change

But don't go saying forever cos forevers not promised
