II Kings - Look At Me Now lyrics

[Intro: DMB] Lately, I've been feeling lost and cold just chasing your shadow.. There just seems to be no chance that you're going to set me free.. I don't know if I can keep on fighting through this last battle.. When it's over, all that I want is for you to look at me.. [Verse 1: DMB] Cause if you'd see, I just ain't what you're expecting You'd be amazed by the connection I look the same but, the pain in my expression Is like a chain with an extension Pulling me back, until the day of my ascension No, I'm not afraid to ask the question But the answer, was the same as a confession Just so much hate, with no affection Cause this game is my obsession When I was down on my knees, it still came for my protection If you say I'm not affecting All the clouds and the trees then I just forgot to mention It will spread like an infection From the ground to the breeze into every direction That's the reason I have stepped in Inflection - look at me not my reflection.. [Hook: DMB] So if you'd open your eyes, you could see that I ascend to the skies.. Just look at me now.. I know you'd be surprised, if you'd see me like you see the sun rise.. Just look at me now.. So just open your eyes, everything will be reborn when it dies.. Just look at me now.. Since we've broken our ties, I hope that you realize, these ain't lies, if only you'd.. Just look at me..... now.. [Verse 2: Elusive] I tried to hide it, but seem to be revealing Every single feeling that I'm feeling, now I'm not concealing it I thought that I was healing, but I can't deal with it anymore Forget the floor, this time I'll hit the ceiling I'll let it out, I'll be an open book But I don't wanna hear about how long it took Me to get here, cause it's been a rough year And with every tear I shed I only hope you look If you wanna know what it feels like But when you look at me, I can see a light Feeling lifeless, as I'm staring into the brightness Wishing that, I and it could be alike But the irony is this I can't even imagine a life of bliss I'm so dark when I spit, because my heart has been hit The puzzle pieces won't fit, because there's one I miss.. [Hook] [Verse 3: Elusive] In my eyes, I always do what I'm supposed to And I can't deal with ups and downs, but I guess my life's a rollercoaster If I'd of chose a different road, then maybe I coulda made the most of Each second - but I feel like I'm just still not getting any closer So, I gotta transform - I'll make you proud Next time you see me, only thing I'll hear you say is, "wow" It's like a new me, so have I gotta star in a movie Just to get you to, look at me now.. [Hook]
