lyrics

Numb

I was on the roof and
Contemplating truth and
Saw my self running
But now I ain’t running

Came a long way, away
Remember them days
You could still see it in we face
Blues blood like them waves
Come out to show them
Looking for a old place new space
Behind the moon and the stars
But not another planet just balance
But we stuck
You love my pain
Whole life bad luck cause
They ain’t trust us
Ain’t the type to know real just us or without us
Make a new dance bout us then drown
Make the pain go away brain go away

Celebrate sorrow
Till I can’t tomorrow
It’s just time borrowed
It’s just time borrowed

Imagine light without darkness
Or the mind without solace
This what mama promised
This what mama promised?
This ain’t what they taught us

I saw myself, saw my

I was on the roof and
Contemplating truth and
Saw myself running
But now I ain’t running

I’m back where I begun
Nowhere to run
After freedom
Now my feets stay numb
But I’m gone
I’m gone
I’m gone
I’m g–
Like a hole, Like a ghost
Like coals, Like smoke
My soul, no shell
Like shoals, no roads
Where I go?
Where I go?
They know, they know
I’m alone, ain’t alone
I’m home

I was on the roof and
Contemplating truth and
I, Saw myself running
But now I ain’t running
