Dandelions

(album: I'M ON TO ME - 2020)

[Rav:]
Dandelion seeds fill the sky
I remember making wishes once
Casting dreams beyond the stars, yet virtue now is but a distant drum
First time that I kissed someone, all the world lost its urgency
Felt my wings extend full span, but time's corroded them mercilessly
Stiff, my breath ain't as resolute
Can't see past the stupendous walls
Scared of shame, I shroud my scars
Sensing sand slipping out my palms
Always struggled grasping time
The more I take, the less I have
Hopes that used to fuel my walk have since but sapped all the strength I had
All I was sure would never change seems oh so different now
I'm no longer making any wishes
Dandelion seeds hit the ground

And I don't know when
I let go of dreams and hoping
If only I could peek beyond the wall and see what I once thought was me
But it's out of reach

[Kill Bill: The Rapper:]
Flutter past passions
Life was a vast mattress
I felt your wings turn into fins, I guess we swimming now
We made a home within this wishing well
You get it?
Well, we picked through every coin we found
And wished we'd found the point we drowned
We built a fortress from the fortunes from above
Dreams amorphous
It was gorgeous, but of course, it was your drug
I think my clock stopped ticking at 11:11
Ladybugs coat my sentences to preface the message
You always bruise my heart
You blew apart my shooting star again
We broke the surface too fast, like what'd I do, I got the bends
Whoa-a
"Why'd you run from me?" I said to myself
Everything is gonna change
I'm tired of wishing, so I sit in my well
I'm just counting all the change (change)

[Rav:]
And I don't know when
I let go of dreams and hoping
If only I could peek beyond the wall and see what I once thought was me
But it's out of reach
