smoke

(album: in defense of my own happiness, Vol. 1 - 2020)

Yesterday I left my joint sitting on the counter
Forgot to put it out, yeah, forgot these things have power
Yeah, it burned a whole right through
Like all the years you can't undo
These days the air in my lungs has gotten thicker
But I breathe a little lighter when I'm with her
This battle in my head is overdue
She says the only way around is through

All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke
All the embers settling down
Making way for fertile ground
All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke

Sometimes I get jealous of Jesus for
Falling asleep in the middle of the storm and
Sometimes you got feel like drowning to be reborn and
Oh, I haven't slept in 3 days
I know I've gotta find my way

Through all of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke
All the embers settling down
Making way for fertile ground
All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke

And I know I'm gonna see the light
The smoke will clear out from my eyes
And I know I'm gonna see
All the embers settling down
Making way for fertile ground

All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke
All the embers settling down
Making way for fertile ground
All of this smoke, smoke
All of this smoke, smoke
