adil omar - the void lyrics

(chants)

the knowledge of the universe
but at what cost
three headed hound in the mist where i was lost
the black dog
i reemerge from a black fog
only to return with a backlog
resurface all the memories burning
soul traveling for centuries, learning
old faces take me places i ain’t never been
where i’m naked in a chamber where the devil sing
rebuild a broken brain and a hurt heart
don’t react to all the shaking in the earth’s core
redirect the great equation so you birth art
they say it’s all inside your head but that’s the worst part
do it like a master, soldier sh-t
how you move inside a flash flood
with every wrong to avoid
when you’re pre programmed to be drawn to the void

it took a god d-mn miracle to set me free
ptsd from an nde
go to bed to sleep, but it’s messing with my sanity
i’m still here bit i’m questioning reality
electricity hit the water with the sparks imploding
life saved but i’m racing with my heart exploding
feeling dizzy, feeling nauseous, feeling heavy
feeling tortured, i’m recalling what i’ve buried
mind scattered into several pieces
carrying the baggage of these terrible secrets
stumble through a lair of aggressors
parents weren’t there to protect us
innocence being hung at the gallows
little ones being clutched in the shadows
confusion from events that were recorded backwards
flashes of sights, smells, senses in distorted fractions
regret, shame, judgement and ghouls and jinns
h-ll is the color of human skin
and if you confront it then you can win
and if you confront it then you can win
mom and dad fighting with the kids seeing
delicate balance rocking as you risk being
schizophrenic, by worldly definition
unless you’re one to follow worthy premonition
a bottle a day minimum
lost our father to the void without a turn for any closure
didn’t let the same happen to our mother
all three of us tougher from this turbulent exposure
virus to a seizure, she don’t remember sh-t
spinal tap, amnesia, she don’t remember sh-t
flat line for a minute when she hit the ground
track marks from her ivs, she’d rip ’em out
bed ridden for the next 2 years for the last few years
of her memories to settle out
i turned to the rhymes and the ink and the beats
i’m a beast, self raised, i’m a feral child

[right panel]

welcome to the cold and hatred
the bones are shaking
your soul get raped and screwed
no one is going to save you
alone and fading, and hopeless
face the truth

[left panel]

this life made you bold, unshakeable
so unbreakable, no mistake, it’s true
your dreams and goals awaken this
soul and greatness that no one can take from you

(chants – bridge)

(“it’s time for you to come home
to recognize that you are not alone
to understand that it’s time for you to sit on the throne of life
understand you have to let go of the pain you feel
all the strife
understand, understand
understand, understand
you have to let it all go”)

write your songs now you crazy child
your light is not far to see
i’d show you now but it may be a while
this fight makes it so hard to speak
look here, boy, what they’ve done to you
sometimes it can be so hard to breathe
with all the secrets in the universe
this one
can be ours
to keep

[outro]

(“show yourself
reveal yourself
i am not afraid
i’m ready to face you”)

i’m the one thing you fear most
or maybe i am both of them
maybe i am all three
4, 5, 6, 7
maybe if you don’t pretend
that i don’t exist
you can find me
hiding in plain sight
but am i really hiding?
i am taunting you
in the broadness of daylight
i’m the one thing you can’t face
i’m the one thing you can’t chase
i’m the worst case scenario
i’m the ugliness there could have been
i’m the grinding of the teeth
i’m the violence underneath
i’m the cringe and the flinch
and the itch and the twitch and the glitch
i’m the frightened little b-tch in you
i’m the self destruct b-tton
i’m the worms in the bowels
i’m the much and the crud
and smudge and the blood and the stains
i’m the germs on the towel
hey, and i make you stutter
cool and you’re calm, but i make you shudder
i am all of your excuses
the misuses and abuses of your faculties
i’m the crunch in your ears when the hunch reappears
i’m the flaws that you see in others
i am the stomach eating itself
i’m the call that you hear when it’s doom that you rediscover
i’m the force and the strain
on the heart and the brain
i’m the puss and the drain
i am all the false recollections
or maybe i’m the real ones
i’m the need for a rumor
i’m the seed of a tumor
i’m the growth and the parasite
i have been identified

(“the love that you feel inside
you know more have to hide
i know the light that you seek
it’s inside of you
it’s everything that you want to do”

the magic words are squeamish osifrage)
