Liminal Space ft. Joe $cott & calyx! Lyrics

Trapped in a liminal space

No motivation in reach

Can't be a jack of all trades

If I'm mediocre at each

I got a one track mind and I swear that I'm derailing

Getting so caught in a thought that I'm detailing

I could take off like a ship and I'd be sailing

But anytime I try I'm failing

I'm scared of the future

And I run from the past

And I'm stressed in the present

But I'd feel useless if I relaxed

I know I been isolated

But that don't mean I don't care

Still though I can't seem to function

I can't seem to function, that's why I haven't been there

Don't ask me why I been distant lately, distant lately

Don't hit me up 'les you finna pay me, finna pay me

Don't ask me why I been distant lately, distant lately

Don't hit me up 'les you finna pay me, finna pay me

I always feel overwhelmed

Feel like I've fallen through tar

Hate when you ask if I'm well

It's obvious I'm falling apart

If I reach for the moon but fall amongst the stars

Will it be enough, though I couldn't get to mars?

Or will just see all of my wasted potential

Need to go higher, I need to get better

Yeah I'm distant and you won't understand it

My future may be blank with the words I paint the canvas

In a liminal space it's dark, no stars or planets

Hindsight is 2020 my vision done left me stranded

My past disadvantage

And now I can manage the cloud that was cast that was straight causing panic

And this is the path, my thoughts running rampant

But there is no cast, that can heal all the damage, all the damage uh

I'm scared of the future

And I run from the past

And I'm stressed in the present

But I'd feel useless if I relaxed

I know I been isolated

But that don't mean I don't care

Still though I can't seem to function

I can't seem to function, that's why I haven't been there

Don't ask me why I been distant lately, distant lately

Don't hit me up 'les you finna pay me, finna pay me

Don't ask me why I been distant lately, distant lately

Don't hit me up 'les you finna pay me, finna pay me

Don't ask me why I been distant lately, distant lately

Don't hit me up 'les you finna pay me, finna pay me

Don't ask me why I been distant lately, distant lately

Don't hit me up 'les you finna pay me, finna pay me

I got a one track mind, swear that I'm derailing

Swear I'd be a nervous wreck despite if I'm prevailing

Cave under my own weight, I'm my greatest assailant

Taught to hate myself, I'm just sticking to training

I'll never be enough, I'll never be content

Not with all the hours that I've spent

There's only so many times you can sharpen a knife

It'll never be a sword just a sharper knife

So with a sharpened mind, I'll keep going nowhere, or rather getting led astray

As I'm fighting an endless crusade against fate

Can't defeat destiny, so I been sedentary

Cause if success ain't in my future, what's left for me?

What's right for me is stopping while I'm ahead

Instead of getting left behind, tryna press rewind and figure out what went wrong

Sometimes i think I think I should just quit so I can end strong

I'm scared of the future

And I run from the past

And I'm stressed in the present

But I'd feel useless if I relaxed

I know I been isolated

But that don't mean I don't care

Still though I can't seem to function

I can't seem to function, that's why I haven't been there

I'm scared of the future

And I run from the past

And I'm stressed in the present

But I'd feel useless if I relaxed

I know I been isolated

But that don't mean I don't care

Still though I can't seem to function

I can't seem to function, that's why I haven't been there

Don't ask me why I been distant lately, distant lately

Don't hit me up 'les you finna pay me, finna pay me

Don't ask me why I been distant lately, distant lately

Don't hit me up 'les you finna pay me, finna pay me
