Thomas Austin - Land Of Lost Potential Lyrics
Official




Ask me how I'm doing and I'm not ok
Thoughts of falling short
They just never fade away
I'm looking for a sign
I just need me a sign today
Any time today
In the land of lost potential
With the vultures where they left me at
In a box full of secrets where they kept me at
It's like a movie that deleted all the scenes with me
It's like a rooftop view with no scenery
Downgraded
Look
Imagine you trying to explain your vision to a small mind
When they can't see past their limitation
They tell you get in line
Most times when it's people closest to you they hard to leave behind
Keep that same tone when the tables go rearranging
I am not the same no more
The game changed me
Pessimism snuck in the room
Can't let it phase me
Light that's at the end of the tunnel had started fading
People want a part of the movement but in a stand still
Overly honest in my music when they can't stand real
Thought about being more like them
But changed my mind
Cause following them just the blind leading the blind though
My brother told me 2023 they'll feel the movement
Blocking out the noise
The distractions are bad influence
When they see you winning they'll tell you that they miss
Let em see you drown
You just a pool of lost potential
Focused on improvement
They more focused on the room
Got married to the game
Now they more focused on the groom
My life just like that aisle
They watching my every move
I got a ring for every mood
Now it's blue
Ask me how I'm doing and I'm not ok
Thoughts of falling short
They just never fade away
I'm looking for a sign
I just need me a sign today
Any time today
In the land of lost potential
With the vultures where they left me at
In a box full of secrets where they kept me at
It's like a movie that deleted all the scenes with me
It's like a rooftop view with no scenery
But I'm breaking out
I see things I want and I go take it now
The bottom was too comfortable to stay around
It's painful when the people that you love are uninspired
And so they wait around
I lead em to the water
But it's too hard to make em drink it now
My whole life's purpose is delivering these messages
In hopes that they connect
But every person I don't save feel like the progress resets
And now I'm second guessing advice that I gave
But in reality it hasn't clicked yet
But in the meantime
I'm gone continue down the path of being a rap phenom
Channeling the likes of all the greats like Aubrey, Michael
The greatest of all time
I want the title
For you it's recreation
But for me this survival
I think it's time for a change of scenery
Potential is a crutch but don't help take you where you need to
Sometimes I'm too accessible
It's tainting how they seeing me
Lost and without sense of direction is where it's leaving me
This my best shot to make it
I gotta take it
This place has put chains on us all so I gotta break it
It's easy to accept how it is and become complacent
But I hate to be left inside of places with no escaping
Ask me how I'm doing and I'm not ok
Thoughts of falling short
They just never fade away
I'm looking for a sign
I just need me a sign today
Any time today
In the land of lost potential
With the vultures where they left me at
In a box full of secrets where they kept me at
It's like a movie that deleted all the scenes with me
It's like a rooftop view with no scenery
But some people
I'm sorry to say they just didn't expect you to make it
They didn't expect you to make it
They didn't expect
And some people clapped when you went through certain parts of your life
And then the claps got real thin
And so what God has in store for you
Is bigger than what you expected
It's gone cost more
But you gone get payed more
It's
It's gone take up more time
But you gone get more time
