Focus

(album: The Work - 2021)

Thine eye be one
That blessed body full of light
I've seen the restless innovation
But it doesn't feel right
My fingers have been itching
Since I found out this prison of mine
Is just some skin and hair
Teeth and bones, a pair of eyes

My body, my pride, once radiant inside
I figured all this focus, had just been given to me
So set in stone; intention, but this isn't my decision to make
I thought that all this purpose, was just mine to take

I know the work you do so well
Yeah I can tell you're keeping me down here with you
In this chemical well
My figure's apparition
I focus my addiction
It's such a shame...
It's such a shame...

Who's the king who wears the crown?
Can you feel the channel changing?

Who's the king who wears the crown?
No light, just horrible sounds
The hollow voices carrying

My body, my pride, my radiant insight
I figured all this focus, had just been given to me
So set in self derision, as I feel my vision slipping away
I figured I was worthless, destined to wither away

No way out, no sight, no ending
There's nothing quite like-pretending I'm here
Constant pain inside
Take the pill and swallow your pride

Thine eye be one, her blessed body full of light
I can't believe the shakes she's given me tonight
Making mention
Focus my intention
We needn't be afraid
Do not be afraid

Who's the king who wears the crown?
No light, just horrible sounds
The hollow voices carrying
Hollow voices carrying

My body, my pride, once radiant insight
I figured all this focus, had just been given to me
So set in stone; intention, but this isn't my decision to make
I thought that all this purpose, was just mine to take
