It's a Privilege and an Honor
And yet
Do thy worst old Time
Despite thy wrong
My love shall in my verse
Ever live young
Yeah
Time swingeth and it bring us right back
Heart attack in a flash
Big boom what was that?
Been a while since my name was just 'Zach'
Out of style for a mile
Still wild on this track
And to me that's just business as usual
Caught a plane to LA
Catchin' rays where it's beautiful but
Still sufferin'
A juxtaposition
I saw Life a little different when I adjusted position
And I
Think that I saw what it was missin'
Under the sizzlin' sun
People in some ugly predicaments
And it makes me wonder what we been givin' 'em because
It wasn't Fate but intentional condition'
As a result of the system that was run over History
Many were subjugated and few became very privileged see
And it's crazy cuz I know that I'm one of 'em
A native white son of this blood-spangled America
Take the train
7A to the beach
Let me hang with my friends
Chicken tacos for cheap
Livin' loco and free
La vie boheme with the freaks
I put my toes in Pacific waters it's washin' my feet
And my spirit of sin
This is where life can begin
It feels right
Like a little spritz of lime in my gin
It's a lot on my mind
I pray the sun don't fry it
I be playin' every day I pray the sun keep shinin' and I
Look behind me at the rest of the country
Put to bed all my stress and see the future horizon but suddenly
Realizing it's only one of me
Wondering
What the hell I found so befuddling
It's funny see now I'm here
Everything that was fog now clears
I'm the lighthouse
I'm like Mike Tyson I'll put ya lights out
I was a moody teen but I'm nice now
Only thought what's the next song that I'mma write now
The way I put it down makes the crowd be like "how"
Doin' it right now
The moment is live
I feel my
Pulse quicken so I know I'm alive
So stricken by the way Time continues to flow
Thicken the soles of my new kicks and I roll
I just give it and go
In the middle of nowhere
So scared
I'mma be taken before I'm ready
I'm tryna stay steady everyday but this weight's heavy
For goodness sakes send me a way to break through it
This life is so opaque tryna make it so translucent
A man's doin' every single thing that he can do but
It doesn't seem to matter
Only thing is it does
You gotta think for a minute
What I'm singin' of
Is a thought you should sit on for awhile like Love
Or Happiness
Or the Meaning of Life
I ain't sayin' that I got it just sayin' that you might
