MikelWJ - Soothsayer lyrics

[Verse One: MikelWJ] What happens when I look at the ideas of my youth After coming to realize that none of them are the truth? It gives a chance for me to build up off some definite proof Since that's the only honest way that I can see to improve They said that I was a goner, talking 'bout d**h with dishonor But I showed them all a smile and said that I was stronger I gave them reason and rhyme to show them progress with time And only cursed in my music to f**ing drive home a line See my belief in a God just left me coated in sod So when you look into my eyes you'll see my pa**ion is gone Imagine giving your all to something and no one supports So you're stuck with pillow cases building castles and forts Inadequate for protection from different forms of deception So you just hide under the blankets from any human detection I'm hoping all for the best, although I'm lost like the rest Throwing single paths of light into the darkness at best [Hook] Soothsayer won't you give me your view Just say the words, I don't care if it's true I've been feeling like my song's almost through Soothsayer, won't you tell me what to do [Verse Two: MikelWJ] I've been feeling grim like the reaper just came and talked to me Maybe it's the fact that I'm leaning on my philosophy Making people think it's okay to come up and talk to me And the second I flip every word becomes a hypocrisy I'm getting used to this feeling of being left on my own I just hoped it would have faded by the time I was grown I'm losing sleep every night, waking up fearing for life In cold sweats from nightmares, like this isn't right I saw my future start to dangle by the edge of some rope Over fires that were burning at the fibers of hope And there were looks of approval from all the people below And every single one of them was someone special I know It's f**ing pitiful, that I've been such an uncommitted fool Just looking for an answer and always breaking the golden rule So show me my future with everything it can hold And tell me, did I ever get happy or did I just get old? [Hook] [Bridge: MikelWJ] Call this my therapy, but there's one I need to know Who will be there for me? And will I reap all that I sow? Tell me the truth about this world we live in Because I honestly don't know [Verse Three: MikelWJ] More money, more problems, that's all these people said to me And everyone who doubted, well homie they're all dead to me They said that things would change once they called me a celebrity The only things that changed we're my close friend's integrity I feel more lonely then ever, Craving to wipe my slate clean Praised as a f**ing savior before I was eighteen For writing songs that were getting people through tough times And most people found themselves in my dumb rhymes [Hook]
