Woke up this morning and said a prayer to the lord.
I've been seeking peace but in reality, I have been preparing for war.
Deep inside me is the ultimate sadness.
Have you ever dealt with depression to the point it drove you to madness?
Shelf.
Dusty old shelf.
Where you place the thoughts that are bad for your health.
Shelf.
Dusty old shelf.
We've all got one no matter your wealth.
Shelf.
We, you and me.
All have a shelf to hide our tragedies.
I refuse to quit so I will put my feelings on the shelf.
Collecting dust, the kind that makes you sneeze.
The kind that fucks with your allergies.
Inside my head is a growing disease.
I used to people please.
Now I'm done living on my knees.
Shelf.
Dusty old shelf.
Where you place the thoughts that are bad for your health.
Shelf.
Dusty old shelf.
We've all got one no matter your wealth.
Shelf.
We, you and me.
All have a shelf to place our tragedies.
