j. september - magnum opus lyrics

my magnum opus, toast to this hopeless feeling of rejection
these other guys can’t even hold a torch to my reflection
in a section of my drunkenness i react and bust two moves
one movement sets the sun and the other one raises the moon
shooting stars above us, diamonds falling like crystal flakes of snow
and it was that night under cosmic fire that god let me know
that it was too late for me, and that i was too slow
too late for me to show my love too slow to let it flow
let it go, time goes on, we learn, that’s how we grow
it’s too bad that these days i’m filled with love from head to toe
my crew came through, always true, under those stars we ran that town
in a past life i passed on, roaming the streets from dusk ‘til dawn
when the lights go off, people are dreaming, city life is calm
we drop atom bombs of acid and for our town we sing a love song
looking up in the sky what could it be? could it be me
everlasting forevermore or could it be a simple fantasy?
and it’s in this sp+ce that i reminisce and refine my craft
seven candlesticks two olive trees and a broken staff
passing through to mystical realms of untold glory
historical account it’s through this mic i unfold my story
at a time when each moment was perfection, it was then that i decided my fate
but maybe schizophrenia put too much food on my plate
or maybe my eyes were bigger than my stomach, i asked for it f+ck it
greedy mind bit off more than it could chew, you gotta love it
touching ground, overdose in the grass, is where he set me down
and what i found was a concept to wrap my little druggy head around
made my choice when i saw them, i said i would come back
and let all you motherf+ckers know just who is the real zack
but he was right, i had a chance and i f+cking blew it
i knew it, i never keep my promises, i wished i could redo it
now to go through it again i have to lose my imperfections
to get my second chance i’m gunna need a second resurrection
fighting back my misdirection has torn me away from my guided path
i decided that, and it’s from my peers and my enemies that i hear these one sided laughs
i confided that it’s imaginable and inevitable that i will lose my way
but on the other side of the heart of darkest night there is an even brighter day
god please light a flame under me, i’m praying god please light a flame
so i can get up and fight my shame, so i can right my name, so i can swipe my fame
from the hands of those who would strike me down, i must re+write the game
might be insane but i must type my pain into pages and take flight again
i only want to walk again, with you, in the halls of the faithful
and even if i’m only there one more time i’ll be forever grateful
i ate my plate full, maybe disgraceful just playing the hand that i was dealt
maybe distasteful to claim my place but i’m just saying how i felt
and if you learn anything from this lesson let it be this
we will never know the answer to the question “how the f+ck did we get in this mess?”
but we must be blessed if we are to break our bonds, move along
find forgiveness, then miss imprisonment and put our chains back on
