INVICTUS... Lyrics

How come those around me, don't wanna see me succeed?

How come me, myself and I, are all that I grieve?

Wasted talent and potential, just not what I need

Mud thicker then blood, but you don't know how I bleed

The weight of words, how can live with this?

They say pick your poison, I pick eucalyptus

I'm unafraid of perception, I am Invictus

Lost enough love, to know I need a little bitta this

Do I really care?, drunkenly writing these melodies

Do I really care?, love and chaos is the remedy

Do I really care?, spinning the thread of destiny

Do I really care?, as I tremble in victory

Spend my days in my past, why my days fade into one?

Sticks and stones, the importance of words has been undone

Crying to them, about how I wanna be a someone

How I want my stories to be told to my greatest Grand-Son

Body of a father, perception of Father Time

Self-awareness ain't enough, not a single line

I talk my truth, but you only hear me rhyme

I wanna make waves, you, you just wanna shine

We are not the same, we aren't in this together

We are not the same, yes, I'm cutting this tether

We are not the same, tough skin like leather

We are not the same, more then an endeavor

It's not a secret that I met you accidentally

But I'm glad that I did and I'm with you intentionally

Faith's a funny motherfucker, maybe, it's meant to be

But it is what it is, maybe, you weren't meant for me

Crying writing this, fam, I mean it so literally

Intolerant of you all, but I do it so brilliantly

Blood, Sweat and Tears, you cannot, belittle me

Fuck another four, just enjoy my symphony
