Narrow Legend

[Verse 1] Pages after pages, I write and I write I’m crumpling papers cause I can never get it right Night after night reflecting, thinking, and dreaming And of course the price to all this would be to lose everything There’s a place in my mind, no one knows where it hides My fantasy is flying, it’s a castle in the sky But that’s what happens when you follow stars I create my own orders cause I’m the czar Making art with my hands, creating lines and rhymes Pen and pencil scribbling endlessly from the scribe Kingdom so empty you can even call it haunted Stuck within a loop, please have me astonished I can never finish a story, it takes too much effort Famine is upon me as I travel through this desert Life in a cycle, running around forever in laps Sometimes I even question my purpose to rap Journey so misty and dark, trials and tribulations The clock is always ticking so I can never be patient Goals and dreams, I got my whole life planned out My plan, my career, my life, that’s all it’s about Yeah, I know I always talk about not wasting time Ironic cause I’d be wasting time talking ‘bout time Working on the future never working on what’s important Gazing at the same sun and clouds every single morning Everyone thinks I’m living the life, but really I’m trapped Vision so focused and narrow that I don’t need a map Living in this mansion is starting to make me insane Even when the day shines all I see and feel is rain Is this the life I really want to live? Not really But this life surely got my lifespan set under fifty Live fast and die young? I don’t want no part in it Flame is so bright at first then it slowly diminishes If everything happened the way that I wanted it to There would be no point in living so fix me as a statue All hail the king, long live the king They used to cheer that now it’s the opposite of that I always ramble, talk, and speak about the same topics Bad era, diseased phase, wicked games, dark age Keep telling myself that I got it under control But inside my heart I know I’m really out of control Wilding out to the fullest till I regain conscience Tired, empty, bored, and exhausted grievance As the king of my life I go and make my own decisions Plan out my entire life including my story and vision But with that said I wouldn’t have any sort of adventure Captured in my vision so I heed no lectures I made sure to cut off all loose ends, no alliances The sea and wind are raging but I boldly show defiance Glowing pride and showing proud I did it on my own But the answer lies in my heart, I can’t do it alone Lone wolf still dangerous tryna kill anything near That’s why everyone including him are stuck in fear Skeptics, haters, and unbelievers tryna make me fall Led me to build and construct some heavy walls Destined to become fiction, a myth, a parable Not recorded in the journal, diary, or chronicle Nervous to my bones, I wonder what’s in store Sick of this place I need a life worth dying for Please Lord take over I can’t bear this throne no more Take me as I am because I know I’m forever yours I’m so corrupt and sinful that I could never stand to Wear the crown of thorns for what I did and will do I’m so thankful, I’m so grateful, make my eyes see Heal my body, mind, soul, and heart so they won’t bleed I’m not a robot but a rebel in the system Yeah we some underground kings so you better listen Gotta stop holding grudges and burdens and focus on now Jesus take the wheel, having you as my king I allow I’d be the one tryna write up a magnificent story But my story will never ever compare to God’s story Putting my chances in the dice, my life is on the line But there is no need to since I have God by my side I’m a prince not a king, the Holy Spirit’s son I live to serve the true king thy will be done
