Music

Yeah… uh… yeah…
Know what I mean?
Sometimes… sometimes words ain’t enough.
Sometimes… only the music…
(Verse 1)
Scrolling through the timeline, same old fights
Politicians lying, wrong and the rights
Blurring into gray, another hazy day
Head heavy, feeling lost in the disarray
Used to chase the highs, the champagne dreams
Now I pick apart the seams, unraveling schemes
Everybody preaching, wanna tell you how to live
But the noise is deafening, gotta find a sieve
(Pre-Chorus)
Tried meditation, yoga on the floor
Tried talking through it, knocking at the door
Of understanding, but the handle's cold
Just another story left untold
(Chorus - Beat drops, slow and heavy)
Yeah, music make me understand
When the world's a language I can't command
Just a melody, a rhythm and a rhyme
Saves me every single Goddamn time
Yeah, music make me understand
When the words just slip right through my hand
It's the only truth I know, this feeling deep inside
The only place where I can truly hide
(Verse 2)
Remember late nights, headphones in my ear
Pouring out my soul, shedding every single tear
Letting Joni Mitchell mend the broken parts
Letting Biggie Smalls reignite the fire in my heart
Now I got a studio, platinum on the wall
Still searching for the answer, answering the call
Of the silence in between the bass and the the snare
Trying to unpack the burden that I have to bear
(Pre-Chorus)
Tried expensive therapists, sitting in the chair
Tried chasing fleeting moments, breathing in the air
Of desperation, hoping for a spark
Just another memory hidden in the dark
(Chorus - Beat remains consistent, more urgency in the vocals)
Yeah, music make me understand
When the world's a language I can't command
Just a melody, a rhythm and a rhyme
Saves me every single Goddamn time
Yeah, music make me understand
When the words just slip right through my hand
It's the only truth I know, this feeling deep inside
The only place where I can truly hide
(Bridge - Beat fades slightly, more introspective)
Maybe it's the vibrations, resonating in my chest
Maybe it's the stories, putting my soul to the test
Maybe it's the honesty, stripped down to the core
Maybe it's just magic, I don't even know for sure
(Chorus - Beat swells, building to a climax)
Yeah, music make me understand
When the world's a language I can't command
Just a melody, a rhythm and a rhyme
Saves me every single Goddamn time
Yeah, music make me understand
When the words just slip right through my hand
It's the only truth I know, this feeling deep inside
The only place where I can truly hide
(Outro - Beat fades out slowly, piano chords reappear, echoing)
Understand…
Yeah…
