LOKEYE lyrics : "City of Rain"

(Hook - Repeat x2)
In the City of Rain
You can hear the Sirens screaming

Bodies leaving
Aurora Bridge with their wings spread
Good friends I let slip from my hands

Swimming in the deep end of Seattle

(Verse 1)

I caused a lot of pain in my life
Too many stains on my white shirt
The fight hurts less the harder I press

The mic and bless a crowd
Like a gun to my mouth
Put my head up in the clouds

And my friends don't doubt me
So whatever you've got
I've got a better peace of mind

Cause my minds in pieces
And I'm not trying to find them
This season is all about recognizing

My friends as their love shines
When they're rhyming, I see it
Everyone could use a little healing

To look eachother in the eyes
Go on hold your head up high
My people too often shy and scared

To speak
Their feelings
I'll let you know right now

How deep this rabbit hole's sleeping

Grab

A cold weekend insert a cypher
On the grow, with a million thoughts
And some lifers

Tommy Chunging hard and security guards
Chilling 'roung the parking
Lot

With the skinny on the cops
Word to god, we got our wings spread like some eagles
In Bellingham,

Following the flocks of seagulls
And every bird's wings grow feeble
But you're my close friend

So let me
Know before you leave, cool?


(Hook - Repeat x2)

(Verse 2)

Don't push me, I'm closer to the edge
Focused on my breath, friends that I protect
Taking bigger steps, treat'em with respect

Give'em
Space, until there's nothing left
But nothing lasts, so I'll wait it out

Patient, hoping for the pass
I'll
Be that guardian angel

On and off the court
Just don't treat it as a
Sport

And don't press fast forward
You feel that heartbeat
Knockin' under the floorboards

I listen for the words "never more"
And then I kill it
Cause times now and times short

Stay posted like a raven
Or let the wind chart your course
I'm in the prime of my life

And every line that I write's
Another page of me raging against
The dying of the light

The harder we fall the better we are
You just gotta pick yourself up
I wish I was given the chance to
Befriend everyone
But truth is most days I'm drained

And all I can do is wait
For my friends who sustain me
To help me step up to the plate
This present moment spans like a canyon
Living in a constant freefall

Never landing emptyhanded
And I'll admit that it was scary at first
But if I was buried alive
There's no better place on earth than here


(Hook - Repeat x2 - then outtro)
