Wishing on a star, shaking as I'm sitting
I never thought, oh fuck, who am I kidding?
I guess I'm fooling myself, producing a mess
Quitting 'fore I start, what I'm choosing is death.
I'm losing a bet, the Devil's evil grin
Feeling that I'm blessed but he's not letting people win.
Looking at my wrist I see the metal creeping in,
I snap like it's brittle then I'm getting really sick.
Digging six feet down, my grave is like a treasure chest,
But better yet, indeed, now the day you might've never guessed
Would come, like Mike Fox I'm all shook up,
I bite off more but I stopped, we wish you all good luck.
Blind in the eyeball yet I spit in the face of
My God, I need to act right, fuck this mitigation.
You're the giver of sight, enter reconciliation,
I see a sliver of light, I'm letting many rays in...

I stare into the Sun, hopin' I'll see your face,
I need to keep an open mind, I'm choking while breathing straight.
"Eric, you've begun -" Let me cut you off right there,
I'm daring you, I'm extra tough, though I fucking thought nightmares
Would get a hold of me, thinkin' that I could spend,
This and last a life-time, sitting back, I pull pens
To blow up twice, I'm wishing crap, a mystery
Exactly why it's fragile-like, attack my history.
No heart is so dark, where's the Novacaine,
Numbing the suicide, this blast of misery...
This wizardry at last, I coulda sown I told ya straight,
Beforehand that I'm more sad than a total rain.
Lookin' up to Yoda, I know ya know the total force
I'm a fucking soldier, who's been holed up in this Trojan horse.
You can break me free, cuz 83 percent of me,
Fights protecting the other 17, crazy Reaper's enemy...

My reflection is myself with a spitting image
Of my face twisted with a different visage.
Picture stitches holding up the globe for now,
With a mixture of sick intentions, it holds me down.
I look at myself and now I'm not satisfied.
All across candle light, fuck it, I got out alive.
I need to hold it down tonight, but without a fight
The ground invites me to dwell, but Hell, and now I try:
I set my standards high, cuz when I have to die
I can look back on my life and glad I cracked a smile.
I try to laugh, alas but I can see the road
Ahead of me in darkness, but fuck it, I can be the glow.
I can see the light, feelin' so free tonight
Living up to the promise, I'm being the dreams inside.
When the shadows overlap with the energy rays
Just gimme the mic, you'll see my enemies slayed.

Great track, you already know my opinion on it from Facebook but I'll leave a little feedback. My favorite thing about this track is your lyrics and emotion. I love the part in the beginning of the 2nd verse when you somewhat change your voice up, it just sounds dope in my opinion. Your multis were definitely on point throughout the entire song.

Keep it up man, I'm pumped to hear "Ashes" and "Phoenix"!

Thanks Triple for mixing this. Sounds great!!

Hope everyone else enjoys it.

Triple did a good job.
Interesting vocal effect with the pitched down layer.

I can imagine that it was a pain in the ass mixing this.
Eedee did good with the delivery and lyrics.

Nothing left to say.

Interesting track; I hope that this at least got released as a single.
This is too good to make obscure.

Thanks man.

I'm putting this on Ashes instead.

Damn!

This sounds friggen good!

Well, damn, this is alright.

Sounds really good.

The mixing felt a bit off at times but it was not a major problem.

So I lied about this being exclusive lol...

This is the second single from Ashes. Difficulties had us substitute this song for another on the mixtape.

I'm so glad this song was put onto Ashes. Such a good track and the demonic undertones Triple put in while mixing sound amazing. Really solid work from the both of you. =

K, thanks Tucker.
