What Is Lucidity? Lyrics

It's like a color that you never thought existed

Blink and you might miss it

Or get dizzy and wake up

Shaken up from a crazy location that you had not imagined before

You went through the door

You turn back towards it

And suddenly you're back where you started

But a staircase has opened up

It's a dark place you don't go to much

And suddenly you got the opportunity to see the beauty through it

But you back off cause you're too damn stupid

Or maybe it's sloth

Maybe I been floating down the river of time

Maybe my big plans aren't worth the peace of my mind

Maybe I done lost a piece of my mind

Uh

Satan and God argue 'bout keepers and finders

Yeah

And I been feeling blind to my fate

Until I focus in

A world that I created

Plagued by illusions and I'm tryna break them

But I can't until I open my eyes

Where did the light go

I'm still in denial

No

If I fail to reach lucidity then I'm through

Oh

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

(If I fail to reach lucidity then I'm through)

(Oh)

Gaze at the fogged up mirror and what do I see

Don't think I recognize the man staring back at me

God, I feel like death warmed over but that shit ain't even half baked

And I got to be careful considering what's at stake

Cause even if burning the leaf it seems could put my mind at ease

Honestly I don't need another temptation trying to fulfill the prophecies

That I see every night while I stare at the sky

Devoid of color like Paradise and I traded eyes

Wait

That can't be right

Well you better check your sight

Because I'm not the man you thought

Rip out my subconscious thoughts

I don't care if my heart stops

Sometimes sacrifices must be made to reach a higher place

And if it's me then that's a shame

But what can you do

Oh

What can you do

Oh

If I fail to reach lucidity then I'm through

Oh

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through

(If I fail to reach lucidity then I'm through)

(Oh)

Yeah
