Is it Work? ft. Freddie Losambe Lyrics

Is it work if it doesn't hurt?

Is it art if doubt doesn't lurk?

Every artist holds a secret wish

To be remembered

In tune to pieces of a soul

Woven carefully together

Is it work if it doesn't hurt?

Is it art if doubt doesn't lurk?

Every artist holds a secret wish

To be remembered

In tune to pieces of a soul

Woven carefully together

I'm not

Overwhelmed

Just in a little bit

Of a tricky spot

I throw myself

Into the wind

And then I spin the clock

Backwards

Knowing it's a gamble

On my mental health

But this is where

I'm at, sir

Still rambling

Against the swells

And the keys

And the bells

And the breaks

I can spell

What I see

And develop

In a dark place

Sacred images

Perspective all it takes

To see the grace

Within the grime

The rhyme inside

The wasted time

It's taking all of mine

Tryna' write the hook

I'm living and I'm dying

And surviving

Through my rhyme book

Had to

Break it a couple times

To get to know the parts

I'm sinking and I'm flying

And surviving

Through my art

Is it work if it doesn't hurt?

Is it art if doubt doesn't lurk?

Every artist holds a secret wish

To be remembered

In tune to pieces of a soul

Woven carefully together

Is it work if it doesn't hurt?

Is it art if doubt doesn't lurk?

Every artist holds a secret wish

To be remembered

In tune to pieces of a soul

Woven carefully together

Hey,

Whose old man is that

Screaming at the sky?

Things ain't been the same

Since Nick let Artie die

Thought we'd see the phoenix

Rise without worry

But once again the youthful zeal

Turns to bedtime stories

The strongest man appeared

As a show of nothing

Emptied of all faith

Nothing for these old eyes

To trust in

Petunia don't dance

for Pyotr no more

So he shout out to the heavens

For God to even out the score

Wrinkled fingers now paint

With cynical flair

Ideas of revolution died

With the pigment in his hair

Fearing he lost the plot

And no one really cares

His name will fade,

Eyes turn away

To new love affairs
