A Year In Space

(album: intern aquarium. - 2016)

Yeah, I just... I just... I don't know
Just listen

Alright, can I be honest?
I broke rules, I broke hearts, I broke promises
You might think that I'm self-aware, but I fake confidence
But I feel free tonight, I can see the light, my way out of this
It begins with me, things I was doing for you
Are things I should do for me
Yeah the giants sleep, I've got a stalk to climb
Better not make a peep
But, damn, that's steep, I ain't never seen the peak
They don't want you to see the peak
DJ Khaled voice, I ain't know that I had choice
I ain't know that I had choice, I ain't know why
I am a opposition that puts me in a odd position
This is my audition, I know that I talk too much
I know I'm not the type to listen
But here I am, right here before your door
Mom says I need the Lord
But if spent my money on girls and clothes
Holy water, I just can't afford
I gotta fill that void, some way
I can't follow you, I can't follow you
Please don't follow me, I got problems, see
Pride I'm swallowing, really honestly (Ah, ah)
I think I need time at home, I think I need to meditate (Ah, ah)
I think I need time alone, I could use a year in space

I don't love myself, but you keep loving me
I am not the man, that I wanna be
I don't love myself, but you keep holding me
I can not be yours, and live comfortably
I got the whole wide world in the palm of my hands
Though I have it for ransom, it makes all the demands
I got the whole wide world in the palm of my hands
Though I have it for ransom, it makes all the demands

I mean, is it really tripping if you stumble upon your truth?
I got a couple hundred in my pocket, but, I beg to differ
'Cause if a nigga like you gon' find himself along the way
By all means, Khary, get lost!

Just another day on a lonely Earth
Tryna' see which ex gonna stone me first
Searched my soul for my own rebirth
And convinced myself that I don't need church
What is my self worth?
In state of panic, depression gets hard to manage
New York hurt my heart, but made me a man
Rhode Island's like a different planet
Am I not brave? Uh
Does that make me coward?
I used to want to save world, put a cape on
But is this world ours?
Conscious Khary, became 'Captain Khary'
For the sake of myself, and the sake of you
'Cause there's no telling what one might do
With too much whiskey and too much truth
Some go crazy, remain minute
Some go load gun to aim and shoot
Some go drop out, I blame the school
Oh, how I miss you, an aimless youth
What's the right time to hang my boots?
What's the right time to call a truce?
I deal with darkness inside my mind
So it feel like sunshine to be recluse
Luck is light, but that's what makes me right
The fact that I know my life is a roll of dice
Not a girl in my Rolodex
That can make me forget my price
I am not my vice, overworked, I need two brains
Never hang like Hussein, dark nights without Bruce Wayne
Not afraid to be crazy
We all are, I'm afraid to be too sane

I don't love myself, but you keep loving me
I am not the man, that I wanna be
I don't love myself, but you keep holding me
I can not be yours, and live comfortably
I got the whole wide world in the palm of my hands
Though I have it for ransom, it makes all the demands
I got the whole wide world in the palm of my hands
Though I have it for ransom, it makes all the demands

Demands, demands, demands, demands
Demands, demands, demands, demands
Demands, demands, demands, demands
Demands, demands, demands, demands
Demands, demands, demands, demands
Demands, demands, demands, demands
Demands, demands, demands, demands
Demands, demands, demands, demands
