Abstract - We Are The Artist lyrics

They say Live by the system
Abide by what's written
Rules are just the way it is
And not meant to be questioned
Go to school go to college with
That knowledge get a job
Cause it's all about the money and
That's how the moneys got
Grow up get a family trade
Dreams for a decent salary
Once your own shape now a
Square through life's geometry
So now you fitting real damn
Snug inside that cubicle
Voice inside your mind screaming life
Could have been beautiful

We are those who let that voice speak loudly
Throw our hearts to the people
Wear our honesty proudly
Spill our guts to the masses so
They know they ain't alone
Hit em with the messages that
Ain't hittin' their phone
Journey through the sound waves and
Straight into your soul
Let ya know that life is
Somethin' only you can mold
When you feel your at edge throw
You something you can hold
Bring you back to earth and
Put you back in control

Cause I don't wanna be society's casualty
We are the artist where
Heart is building reality
Drift to the mountains when they
Been clouding my imagery
Mother Nature do send for me when
Their world try to finish me

Back to my spot
Back inside my thoughts
Misery love company
These days I walk alone
They ask me if I'm lost said
I was but made it home
They ask me bout the cross said
I leave that talk alone
I like to not limit the
Things that we could be
Cause when I look into the stars I
See a lot is left to read
There's a lot that I've been told of
And my eyes are yet see
Places I've been shown but air my
Lungs are yet to breathe

So let me live my life
Only I decide if how I live is right
I know we could go back and fourth all night
But life is infinite and I
Swear it's meant to inspire
Spark going I'm growing till hope
Is moving in fire
Said the worlds getting dark add to
The light through my lighter
If you saying we ain't dope hope you
Choke and know you a liar
You can sit back and watch me
Set the world on fire

Cause I don't wanna be society's casualty
We are the artist where
Heart is building reality
Drift to the mountains when they
Been clouding my imagery
Mother Nature do send for me when
Their world try to finish me

Raised on no ceilings
No limit's at all
Grew surrounded by mountains no
Levels too tall
I was gifted this mind set
Ill gift it to y'all
Gift it right back if I ever should fall
6, 200 feet most live under my feet
Live at a height in
Which most couldn't breathe
Tryna get to a height that
Most lives haven't seen
Cause I woke out my
Nightmares proceeded to dream

But when the world
Try's to break me down
Take me back to where my peace is found
The wind through the trees
Whispers through the breeze
Out here no one can tell me
That I can't live dreams

Cause I don't wanna be society's casualty
We are the artist where
Heart is building reality
Drift to the mountains when they
Been clouding my imagery
Mother Nature do send for me when
Their world try to finish me
