They see 30 seconds They didn't see 10,000 hours
Anyone can sail on smooth waters Anyone can dance when the music is playing
(background voices)
Remind yourself of what that door opening is going to feel like
So I have dreams
Compulsions to be legendary
Evolving from the imaginary
And It’s near and it’s real, I can see
In due time we realize that real life is defined by our own eyes
And I blueprints to the skyline.
It's just.. reality is built methodically
And overnight success, you would never guess, takes a long time
You have to cut lifelines and navigate landmines
But it's your move, on your cue, just decide
So I sat there and I thought about it
How long am I gonna go on about it?
Put my shoes on, said so long and went outside
Right through the field I used to run by
With rows of sunflowers waist high
But it was different than what I envisioned
There weren’t any road signs or guidelines or letters that said "It’s all just fine"
It was just me, adjusting, as I made my way to the sunrise
Then I paused
On the ground below me was a little door
I knocked slowly
Was pretty scared, maybe ill-prepared
But we get one life, one life only
So I open the hatch and look down
And it’s pitch black, no sound
If you don’t choose, any road will do
I’ve been riding logistical merry-go-rounds
My eyes are wide, restless soul with scores to settle from years ago
I know that there’s more, I told me so
I’m going down the rabbit hole
There’s not a way out
The chips fall I’m all in now
My prospects are in lock step
and each step is a shake down
I got a coat of armor
Sword of steel
Call to arms
Cause the threats' real
See, crowns are made on battle fields
So your majesty, no, I will never kneel
Time to face fear right front, center
Watch doubts fall like its November
Got a treasure map in my backpack
Says life’s golden, what a pleasure
I spin around & around
I’m free-falling now
Cause there’s ghosts, ghouls and there’s goblins out
"Oh, your leaving us?"
They call me treasonous
Think that you’re dangerous..
You must be delirious
Just then a gun fires and the trumpets start
And ground trembles from the steady march
It looks bad, cause their deck’s stacked
But my King beats the Queen of Hearts
I try to win in spades, so I set fires
With the kind of flames that forge Empires
Like a hurricane but I’m a tad insane
Cat 5, Cheshire
Right round we go, the next episode
Onto the 2nd story so look out below
Collect hater’s tears, they make a steady flow
And their greatest fear is I told you so
I know it though, there’s no impossible
You can watch your past or you can watch it grow
Be more powerful than you will ever know
I’m going down the rabbit hole
