Mike Wills - Crossroads Lyrics

This crossroad is tough, corroded my mind to dust
But my gears, my ideologies, were already roughed up
These years, apologies to myself
I almost died for nobody else, than the man himself
I won't turn back now, too late for that
Would rather die standing than stranded in a state of black
The answer's easy, the action isn't
I try to think deeply but there's no decision
I lost my face, I lost my faith, f*ck staying in place
It was already laced in my early days
Dads haze paved the way, decayed the child's play
It ruined the place we stayed
Meaning f*cked for fruitful phrasings sake
Seeing such a truthful face fade away
Made me realize, I wasn't a butterfly
Stuck in a cocoon, you die, get by or modify your life

It's time to say goodbye, I'm never coming back
Living in a lie, I'll get my life on track
But this crossroad, has taken a toll on me
I just wanna be free
Free
It's time to say goodbye, I'm never coming back
Living in a lie, I'll get my life on track
But this crossroad, has taken a toll on me
I just wanna be free
Free

Currently my future's without currency
I don't feel free, cause I can't see three feet in front of me
So please don't follow me, following nobody in this cold
And I'm told what to do, and the truth is it doesn't go
Well, when the tried and true doesn't hold a clue
You're forced to move without a view
Glue my blindfold on with pride
Cause if I hit rock bottom, I can at least say I f*cking tried
Tried not trying way too many f*cking times
And I don't even know if Imma make it out alive
But this has been the only thing I ever wanna die for
Music made the shy kid a bright sight for the sea floor
Knocked down before I even walked
Grief pedigree but I see the light at the sea shore
So I pour my blood, sweat and tears all around
Cause I've bled, burned and drowned for this crown

It's time to say goodbye, I'm never coming back
Living in a lie, I'll get my life on track
But this crossroad, has taken a toll on me
I just wanna be free
Free
