King Davie - City Lights Lyrics

What is life supposed to be like
Without these unbalanced chemicals?
How do I know I'll still do right
And not turn into an animal
Got me thinkin' below city lights
Is there a legacy if I die tonight?
I know chances low, but we always might
And if I leave now, I think I'll be alright
Yeah, I never asked for much, anything suffice
It don't take a lot to get me feelin' nice
Every now and then, I roll the dice
It don't gotta be precise, whatever give me a vice, yeah

Don't know how much longer till I gotta go
I'm just tryna make it down this seemingly unending road
If tomorrow you wake up and I ain't make it home
I hope I leave a piece of me inside of everybody's soul
I'm tired of bein' consumed by drugs and alcohol
If I can't live on my own, then I won't at all
Call it what you want, but I'd rather fall
Through the oblivion and shoot out like a cannonball

Tryna tell myself to be patient
But I'm gettin' tired of waitin'
All this time, feel like I'm wastin'
Got some dreams to get to chasin'
Every obstacle I'm facin'

But that shit don't keep me waited
Yeah, I used to be consumed, but now I only strive for greatness (Only greatness)
And I don't give a fuck if I get famous
'Long as me and mine are livin' lavish, then we really made it, yeah
Don't got time for the games that people playin'
I can barely save myself, so don't see yourself a way in
If you ain't on my level, I can't hear a thing you sayin'
Doin' what I know is real, it's more than my imagination, yeah
Came to terms, what I do is really workin'
Yeah, it's all up to me, I just gotta put the work in
No matter what emotions ever surface
It'll never pull me 'way from what I know is really worth it
And I could never try to be perfect
No matter who around, yeah, I'll always be divergent
Just doin' what I need to do to ensure my insurgence
Find a safe and healthy place to channel all these thoughts emergin'
