Curse / XIII

Intro:
...I'm feeling defeated - I'm losing my course
...One thing that I've needed... my Guardian Force
...we're all under Ragnarok - I fear for Rinoa
...Future Ultimecia, getting the best of ya', I need to show up

Verse 1:
...what's real, what's fantasy? Destined to lose it all with all humanity
...losing my sanity, people say fate is closed, now I ask "can it be?"
(No!) Vanity, so... fight for the future, despite that I'm scared
(Cursed) to my death anytime anywhere, this effort is getting "mono no aware"

(Cursed) I'll never win, there's no escaping our sin, and no starting again
I'm living without a friend, this is the end of the trend, stop me before I go
Off... thirteen, thirteen
I guess the unluckiness, in a sense, has always tried to murk me

DAX is (cursed) and now it seems that things will never go his way
I've been living in the dark without the hope to see the day
All you want to do is dream, but they don't let you - that's tough
Wake me to a nightmare, all I see around is (bad luck)

Man, I come in to kill it the minute I'm feeling down
The villain's need of some healing, I need it now
David Gonzalez has probably fallen to
Life's slowest stalling, it's calling me now, cause
Lag sucks, but you keep moving, better
Man up, show 'em all who's king of the
Passioned microphone, proving that with
Bad luck, there's no such thing

Verse 2:
Man, I started this project about three years ago, senior year with the fear of not passing at all
Class of '13, man, it seemed so unlucky, but funny, regardless, God was up to something
...three years before that ... DJ DAX found rap
...fell in love with the culture ...I'd never take the back

Preach since seven, piano since ten, sang since then - but now I need a pad and a pen
Doing it with the Spirit, transmitted in every lyric, I'm in it to win it, been independent from way back then
I'm taking the heat, been framed as a lameful deceit, complaints 'bout the danger I seek
But aye though, mate, I take these 808s... so those who listen can see

Oh! Bringing it back to my last year, all of my issues feeling like fate
Oh! But something I learned in my last year: the future belongs not to those who wait
Oh! So I, shift this, paradigm, Lord, can I get a witness?
Oh! Both eyes, vision, John 11:40, man, I hope you're listening

It's a hard life deaf, that's why I hit this Archlyte Steppe, Guardian, using all my breath
To decrease dead bods and increase head nods, using all my will cause this fate's not set
Thirteen, oh, thirteen - I was in Class of '13
I guess the unluckiness, in a sense, has always tried to merk me

Chorus:
Oh Thirteen, Thirteen, running out of luck
Praying to my God that a seven be enough
Oh Thirteen, Thirteen, running out of luck
Praying to my God cause this fight is gettin' rough

Verse 3 (Solar)

Chorus

Bridge:
I've made my guess, bad luck's not bad at all
Inside my chest, I know I got it all
I find my rest mid-air when I may fall
13, part two, returns: they are my call

// Thirteen, I'm always hurting, yes, I'm searching
Thirteen, never stop learning, of this, I'm certain //
