Cigarettes
he draws out, the cigarette smoke trail spins//thoughts crowd the room, till its only him//he feels it, he lives for it//spent half a life pushing it forward, what he wouldn't give for it//saw naysayers put in their places//feel like he's scaling the foothills of greatness//holding all four aces, he braced//for the next few years being some for the ages//no time to heed, pride come before the fall//for now he shines, all rose, no thorn//full bloom, like his plan fool proof//high noon sun beaming, spoke to soon//the dark clouds scream towards his door//and a house of cards, it cant stand in the storm//wind picked up, sunshine stopped//the world came down with the very first droplight me up, like a cigarette//and just let me burn, catch fire, and burn, and catch fire//light a spark, and ignite it in the dark//so when im no more theyl know i was here before, so just let me burn//he still gunning, beaten but refused to be broken//what some call delusional others call focus//nah he focussed, came back for the re up//nows not the time to kick back with his feet up//Letras de cancionesstands in the rain with his face to the heavens//and his arms outstretched from the pain that he let in//world keep kicking hard, aint gonna get him//he's willing to fight and die for the path that he heads in//and thats a bittersweet faith//knowing high and lows will come boy but them's the breaks//its pride, its madness, its seeing what others can only imagine//and then reaching out to grab it//saying "i can say that whatever comes happens//but i followed my heart my goddamn it"//exposing reality to magic//its hope, and thats all it is, he walked through fire and its all he came back with, saying//light me up, like a cigarette//and just let me burn, catch fire, and burn, and catch fire//light a spark, and ignite it in the dark//so when im no more theyl know i was here before, so just let me burn//come what may, some memories fade//but some stay as vivid as the moment they were made//dreams of the days where he stood like a mountain//its been a while since then but who's counting//he lies awake, lies in wait, for the light of the morning to bless him, and shine again//summon the rise of the fallen//laces tied, comeback trail still walking//lives for it, lifetime on the mish for it//man, there aint a thing he didn't give for it//but make a bet till his last sun sets//hel be pushing for the light, matey aint done yet//head held high slow danced through his hell//still a point there he gotta prove to himself//and, the beat drops, same songs on next//so he sparks up a cigarette, takes a deep breath//light me up, like a cigarette//and just let me burn, catch fire, and burn, and catch fire//light a spark, and ignite it in the dark//so when im no more theyl know i was here before, so just let me burn// From Letras Mania
