Ego Death Lyrics

One time a young man, he told me, he said

A wise man knows he knows nothing

Why don't you teach me how to walk

I didn't listen, but I know now, I know nothing

It's easy

Lord, I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

Why don't you teach me how to walk

Lord, I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

Why don't you teach me how to talk

Grown man on his own plan, who there to understand

Whoever comprehends, who has a hand to lend

With all the time to spend, just went in to lend

Who was a gentle man, we know how gentle end

Oh how we pay for ten, and to the story end

Show me the evidence, fill me with medicine

Until I'm having sin, who let the devil in

You steady questioning, nobody answering

Well that's your answer then, there go your answer then

So let the answer end

Lord, I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

Why don't you teach me how to walk

Lord, I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

Why don't you teach me how to talk

The beginning's always sweet, just a bite to eat

Just a bite for me, it's the lights for me

Pure energy, this the enemy

This shit enter me, control, alt, delete

What did you do to me? Don't do this usually

I never been this deep, never tried to reach

Don't know what to think, might need a glass to drink

Homie just calm down, focus trying to breathe

Heart is jelly bean, cause I keep questioning

What, when, who, where, how and why

Is this shit all a lie

Why we just live to die

What makes us laugh and cry and then I die

Lord, I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

Why don't you teach me how to walk

Lord, I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

How you gon' teach me how to talk

Death is not the ending, young cricket

It starts a new beginning, something different

Hell was nothing like they said it would be

I sat in a place I thought that heaven would be

It was ultra light beam, and that's all I could see

That's all I could be, technically

I was everything and everything was me

You would think that I was free, but in turn sad

Internally mad, cause I wanna go back

I miss my friends and all my fam and all the love that they lacked

I got love I can give, I can show them the path

Got some shit I ain't finished, I didn't think it'd go fast

Always thought it would last, never thought I would crash

Through all the pain, blood and tears, whoever knew I would laugh

Guess I grew as a man, I didn't make any plans

I hit the ground and I ran, to get as high as the sun

I didn't need any fans, I didn't need any love

I didn't want any friends, bitch I ain't need your heart

I didn't care about bands, I just cared about life

It's still new in the end, who knew the end would be now

Who said time was your friend

Well they lied to your love, just like they lied to me too

And if you think you got the answers, then you just as confused

But I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

But I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

Why you don't teach me how to talk

Will I ever get a chance to live a life again

I wonder how much time has passed, it seems it never ends

It seems it never bends, to the will of men

Until you understand, you will be less than you can

You will be less than you are, forgetting there's a hole

And you're a piece who plays his part, you're at peace when playing smart

Never taking it too far, mama's warnings like global warming to the heart

Just please, let me at least dream, see the color schemes

I've been so distant that I missed it, don't wanna leave

I guess it's bye for now, I hope they didn't grieve

Cause I can't feel a thing, I am the brightest light

I am the darkest night

And if I don't return, I had a hell of a life

But I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

Why don't you teach me how to walk

But I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

When you gon' teach me how to talk

Will I ever get a chance to live a life again

I wonder how much time has passed, it seems it never ends

To the will of men, until you understand, you will do less than you can

You will be less than you are, forgetting there's a hole

And you're a piece who plays his part, you're at peace when playing smart

Never taking it too far, mama's warnings like global warming to the heart

Just please, let me at least dream, revisit memories

See the color schemes

I've been so distant that I missed it, didn't wanna leave

I guess it's bye for now, I hope they didn't grieve

Cause I ain't feel a thing

I'm the brightest light, I'm the darkest night

And if I don't return, I lived a hell of a life

But I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

Why don't you teach me how to walk

But I'm just a baby

No one knows which way to go

When you gon' teach me how to talk

Why don't you teach me how to love

When you gon' teach me how to talk

When you gon' teach me how to love

Thanks for watching
