Toll of the Sol Lyrics

Sometimes on this path of life, it's gonna feel like you're walking alone

But in reality, everything that's for you, you're just pushing away

You got your eyes so set on the prize that

You're not taking the time to show gratitude

Where did I lose myself along this journey, y'all

I never knew myself to be unworthy, nawh

But somewhere on this road

Someone sold me a toll

That cost me part of my sol

Yeah, they sold me a dream

Had my heart on my sleeve

And all I could do was bleed

Was sad, but the mood's now changed

I happened to lose my way

Basic instructions before leaving earth

I had to renew my grace

I'm happy to do my thing

Your spark is your ember, engulf in it

Your heart is your heaven, don't part with it

You gotta remember, keep God in it

I'm telling you, you not safe

Them devils gon' get you if you do not pray

When I go to thinking, I hit me a blinker

I guess it mean 2 irate

I learned how to move my pace

And earned me a newfound faith

Was missing a savior, went get me some flavor

And now it's just, Umami, aye

Where did I lose myself along this journey, y'all

I never knew myself to be unworthy, nawh

But somewhere on this road

Someone sold me a toll

That cost me part of my sol

Yeah, they sold me a dream

Had my heart on my sleeve

And all I could do was bleed

I became a sleeping giant

I remember we was wildin'

Police and sirens

Howlin' like a screeching tire

Hopping out on people firing

That's what keep us violent

Problem child can't free his mind

Until the pulse that makes him beat goes silent

Well may peace come find him

And lay me down to sleep beside him

For every time I weep in private

I just need my island

Take me to the river of shame

Where we all share the same old pain

So we can't go sane

Take me to the banks with the waves

That'll wake me to places my name won't be said in vain

I ain't gon' go where I ain't home

I ain't gon' show my face no more

The price I would pay not to lay here just wasting away

On its way, it's the toll of the soul…
