CEOwen - Icarus Lyrics

(Narrator: Daedalus looked to Icarus with one last glimpse of hope as he handed him wings made out of feather and wax, warning Icarus not to fly too high or too low. But Icarus was foolish, and in his foolishness flew too close to the sun, causing the wax the melt, the wings to perish and Icarus to fall out of the sky.)
Don't fly too close to the sun, or you gonna end up like Icarus
A man who's wisdom hadn't won over his ignorance
I just wanna teach em sum, I'm tryna make a difference
I'm seeking out the word of God, and showing em I'm listening
There'll be paths I'll have to Cross
Like the Christians did
Inside a bath, I will be washed
N cleansed of every sin
And in that moment, I shall rise, a new man born again
After the lord opened my eyes
I saw what life could give
And now I spend my time, appreciating every gift
The fact I even get to wake up and then take a breath
I hear the birds starting the day up, chirping from they nest
Say hello to my neighbors, grab the paper off my deck
I seen the mailman had missed
Just a little bit
I had to put my kicks on and walk down the steps
But I'm grateful that he did
Had some missing packages
And I turned a corner, found the rest
I feel like Johnny Test, how I'm always wit my dog in the lab
I only got one big sister but she still a brainiac
Deal doesn't get considered if you isn't paying cash
Cause I'm all about a check, know Im all about a dollar
Drip is Poppin Fresh, and I get it from my father
She kissing my neck, had to dust her off my collar
She ain't hear the story of Icarus so I taught her
Don't fly too close to the sun, or you gonna end up like Icarus
A man who's wisdom hadn't won over his ignorance
I just wanna teach em sum, I'm tryna make a difference
I'm seeking out the word of God, and showing em I'm listening
There'll be paths I'll have to Cross
Like the Christians did
Inside a bath, I will be washed
N cleansed of every sin
And in that moment, I shall rise, a new man born again
After the lord opened my eyes
I saw what life could give
Damn
Am I Icarus?
I've been moronic but does that make me a idiot?
Will I get burnt out of the spotlight, turned into a crisp?
Or will I keep on pushing no matter how hard it gets?
That's what I told my Das, that's what I told my Mom, that's what I told my Sis, and imma manifest
My passion for this music deep as a bottomless pit
I won't stop cooking til the only thing I breathe is hits
Keep a low profile
I looked up to Eminem, the road longer than "8 Mile"
I looked up to Poppin Fresh, that's where I got my great style
I got so much money when I leave a paper trail it pile up
Yuh
Okay I don't wife no shordy less I'm sure that they the right one
We getting this close to the sun
Might as well join the Mile High Club
Don't fly too close to the sun, or you gonna end up like Icarus
A man who's wisdom hadn't won over his ignorance
I just wanna teach em sum, I'm tryna make a difference
I'm seeking out the word of God, and showing em I'm listening
There'll be paths I'll have to Cross
Like the Christians did
Inside a bath, I will be washed
N cleansed of every sin
And in that moment, I shall rise, a new man born again
After the lord opened my eyes
I saw what life could give
