Pigeon John - Sealed Fate lyrics

rate me

Uh, I've only lived life grippin' tight on a thin rope

Went from girl-to-girlfriend in order to cope

But it, didn't fill the need

Cause I'm still in need

And I'm filled with greed to proceed, indeed

But if I don't understand where I've been, uh (I've been)

I'mma take the very same road to sin, uh (Same road to sin)

Same girl, different fate is worth a grin, uh (It's worth a grin)

A standstill 'til I learn how to win

So I'm switching up the whole scene

Castin' away all the old thoughts and old things

And let it shine bright

A city on the hill, beamin', and it feels right

And let the river flow, gleamin' even when it's light

And got my goons 24/7 ready to fight

And gather all my fruits, only when it's ripe

Cause serious, it's been takin' my whole life

And I've been dicing it to pieces with my very own knife like

[Chorus x2:]

I know it's about time to make and get real

It's non-existent like a record deal

I need a story just before I bail

I'll get it now, before my fate gets sealed

(I know why)

I keep seeing my friends lose it

"Life or death, the choice is yours, choose it"

Is what I've been hearing ever since the 9th grade

But the light was kinda hot, so I kicked it in the shade

And I drunk some lemonade, while the other kids played

And I slowly recognized all the progress they made

Then I looked to myself and I realized I was pale

At the end of the class, they passed and I failed (and I)

Sometimes I feel I'm still there

Underneath the same tree trap, thinking I'm free and

Every morning I wake up to handcuffs

But it's cool in the shade and I don't wanna wake up

And I know if I stop out in the light I'll awake

And see things differently, and have to shape

All the dross and the alloy off

Which will make me, shape me, into exactly what God made me to be!

[Chorus x2]

So I step out, let out a shout, and do time

But my rhyme only reflects me and defines

Where I'm at so I only incline and rewind

To my past to notice my mistakes and recline

And things stand up, now we get it right

Cause my life is but a quick blink in a short night

But I'm chillin' now (chillin' now)

Not gonna wonder how (wonder how)

My life is gonna change

Cause I'll just let it re-arrange like this!

[Chorus x2]
