Nepal Lyrics

We live in a world where everyone wants to be a winner

In life and in love we all want to be the victor

But the one thing no one tends to remember

Is that nothing else matters if you can't make it home for dinner

Me, had to get out

I had nowhere to go

So I took a flight down to Nepal

Plane landed and I got off

Looked up

Can you guess what I saw

The beautiful Nepali mountaintops

When did the wants become needs

When did the needs become unnecessary

Long lost memories

Make-believe shaping my reality

As I climb up this mountain of adversity

Keep trekking on

I cannot stop just to thaw

So take my hand and don't fall

Good job

We're reaching the top

I still want to see the mountains in Nepal

Been an empty shell of my past self

It's been a living hell for so long

Can't even tell what is right or wrong

I'm too preoccupied writing this song

Yeah

The voice in my head all along

Boy read a book

So I flipped through the psalms

Words of the Lord pressed up on my palm

Jesus

Where the hell did I go wrong

Yeah

Play by the rules but I ain't no stickler

Feeding the anger it makes me feel bigger

Than what I am

I'm just a small man

Impact is tiny but I do what I can

But that same voice is crying out

Come hither

The eye in the storm

The snow in the blizzard

Just wait while I grab my hat and my shawl

I still want to see the mountains in Nepal

When did the wants become needs

When did the needs become unnecessary

Long lost memories

Make-believe shaping my reality

As I climb up this mountain of adversity

Keep trekking on

I cannot stop just to thaw

So take my hand and don't fall

Good job

We're reaching the top

I still want to see the mountains in Nepal

Wake up late for the third time this week

Swear that these meds that I take might kill me

Yuh

Glued to my bed fighting fatigue

Thoughts of my mom, my pops, all my family

Wondering how I'ma make this work

Thinking of how I can duck the hurt

Anxiety giving way to my sorrow

But I be dreading tomorrow

Sitting all alone in Bio 112

Thinking bout this beautiful earth we dwell

Evolution and the change of the past steady causing the pain that we constantly feel

Funny how intelligence is the reason we fighting this battle the sadness instilled

Simple biology causing this hell

Somewhere the system has caused us to fail

Another morning spent it laid down

All the other options are greyed out

Feeling walled in all the bricks laid out

Need some fresh air first I got to break out

Oh

Bin filled up with takeout

Know the world has seen it all play out

If my short life were to end now

Then there wouldn't be much of a payout

No

Death throes below the snow

An avalanche I'm crushed under

My voice softly echoes

Cold ripping my heart asunder

When did the wants become needs

When did the needs become unnecessary

Long lost memories

Make-believe shaping my reality

As I climb up this mountain of adversity

Keep trekking on

I cannot stop just to thaw

So take my hand and don't fall

Good job

We're reaching the top

I still want to see the mountains in Nepal

When did the wants become needs

When did the needs become unnecessary

Long lost memories

Make-believe shaping my reality

As I climb up this mountain of adversity

Keep trekking on

I cannot stop just to thaw

So take my hand and don't fall

Good job

Now we're at the top

I finally see the mountains in Nepal
