not a metaphor ft. Myka 9 Lyrics

I starve to death before I listen to you rappers

(I need more)

If you're gonna do it , do it skillfully

(Set the score)

I got people who would kill for me

(that's not a metaphor)

In touch with your feelings

I'm drowning in your brilliance

How could someone

Who's been hurt so much

Become so resilient?

Build castles out of sand inside of

Hourglasses and

Nothing you build will last long ( long)

A kaleidoscope of monarchs

Bursting out as new becomings

Flapping to the rhythm of the rap song

When night gets the darkest

Magenta eyes dripping

Ego shattered gently

Reality is slipping

We are glitter and bones

Deception, mirage

In the scheme of things

Lingering tones

The stuff of stars

Whatever the season brings

Grieving screams

Held captive by tenderness

Planted some seedlings

Springs around the corner

Covered in blood and disorder

Birth is beautiful and brutal

Futile, musical and horror

I find luxury in observation (You see that?)

They find purpose in their enemies opinions

I'm astonished

Seems people wasting breath chasing status end up

Morally impoverished
