Gray Songtext
von Chris Patrick

I said I′m so lost
I don't ever think I′ll be found
I always feel like I'm trapped
Always feel like I'm down
It′s hard to swim in a world where the homies is taught to drown
It′s lonely upon these grounds

Said I'm so lost
I don′t ever think I'll be found
I always feel like I′m trapped
Always feel like I'm down
It′s hard to swim in a world where the homies is taught to drown
It's lonely upon these grounds
Everything feels grey

Everything feels grey, la-da-di-da
Everything feels grey

Everything feels grey, la-da-di-da

Uh
Synthesis of cognitive distortion


Hallucinogenic trauma filled my conscious, feel it formin'
The night before me forcin′ down the D′USSÉ was important
To silence the voice of demon who pried itself through my cortex
I felt depression line the circuits of my motherboard
Intrinsic to my purpose, servin' work under the Rutherfords

Land of free men was built on backs by those who underscore
The magic of the Black man who was bred to move like Dumbledore′s

Where I come from, death is summoned by the rustic sword
Conundrums of a brother, either death or jail through humble war
Hung before a crowd that bares complexions of the thunderstorm
And niggas act in shock whenever guns is formed
Pressure on my head like I'm Atlas subjected to those Olympians
Expression through my scripture is effortless like Corinthians
The sentience of sentences, for words to leave the page
Let phonetics of my epilogue be set to pave the way

I said I′m so lost
I don't ever think I′ll be found
I always feel like I'm trapped
Always feel like I'm down
It′s hard to swim in a world where the homies is taught to drown
It′s lonely upon these grounds


Said I'm so lost
I don′t ever think I'll be found
I always feel like I′m trapped
Always feel like I'm down
It′s hard to swim in a world where the homies is taught to drown
It's lonely upon these grounds
Everything feels grey

Everything feels grey, la-da-di-da
Everything feels grey

Everything feels grey, la-da-di-da

Suppress the way you feel, don't throw no fists, nigga

Fuck you cryin′ for? You ain′t no bitch, nigga
That's how they raisin′ the sharks in the Mediterranean
Ain't realize the masculinity toxic to our behaviors

We grew up thinkin′ that expression was devoid
Connections was destroyed
Affection that our mothers gave was lessons for the boys
That's why depression was so often bound
Raised to be like demons, seen as weapons in the ultrasounds

Deflections of relations led to isolation
Tried my patience findin′ love to learn my mind was tainted
The obsession over love was really lust
'Cause we was taught that fuckin' vixens
Was the only means of findin′ greatness
Learnin′ truth was so essential, still not sentimental
My mental processin' the damage I inflicted
Copin′ with the fact that I can't stand on how I′m livin'
Led to coppin′ lots of shit off of these bands without prescription

I said I'm so lost
I don't ever think I′ll be found
I always feel like I′m trapped
Always feel like I'm down
It′s hard to swim in a world where the homies is taught to drown
It's lonely upon these grounds

Said I′m so lost
I don't ever think I′ll be found
I always feel like I'm trapped
Always feel like I'm down
It′s hard to swim in a world where the homies is taught to drown
It′s lonely upon these grounds
Everything feels grey

Everything feels grey, la-da-di-da
Everything feels grey

Everything feels grey, la-da-di-da

Hey
Hey
I'm grey, too plain
Don′t wanna behave when it's so easy
I′ve got so much
They use the gold, you don't wanna leave me
Oh, grey sun (Oh, grey sun)
It′s grey, it's grey
I'm grey
Grey
