Macklemore, Saint Claire - Excavate lyrics

[Macklemore, Saint Claire - Excavate lyrics]

Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out
Peel my bones away
Crack my window, shed my shadow
Excavate my pain

If I could read the world my
Notebook and these thoughts in it
Would they judge me or love
Me for what I've written?
Tryna get closer to spirit
That enters the body
It's the vessel like I'm not in it
In fifty-something years, I won't be here
There'll be a kid with some
Headphones coverin' his ears
Walkin' 'round a hallway, dreamin' of ideas
Find himself in the sound 'cause
Music is a mirror what you looking for? What
You headed towards?
What's your name worth when
They mention yours? When you leave here


Are you stepping forward?
Can you remember your intention
When they question yours?
They're gonna question yours
They're gonna question yours
I've been to rock bottom and I'm headed North
If you don't love yourself
What's the respect for?
If you don't love life
The check won't correct yours excavate

Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out
Peel my bones away
Crack my window, shed my shadow
Excavate my pain and I found peace
And I found peace and I found peace

I had this vision of my death
Surrounded by people I love and respect
In the baby blue Cadillac hearse
Pullin' me 'round the block that I rep
The greatest fear that I've ever kept
Is dying with regrets
Like was I just alive for success?
Or did I leave a better life for the rest?
My greatest achievement isn't the dollars
My greatest achievement isn't the followers
My greatest achievement isn't the accolades
My greatest achievement is my daughter
Wakin' up in the morning, bein' a father
Watchin' the light kiss her eyelids
Hearin' her sing along to Chance
And bein' like, "yeah, that's my kid"
The light started to glow
And the saxophone from Coltrane
Started to blow tender, laying in the snow
Turn on my headphones
Couple miles to go before I run out of road
Excavate

Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out
Peel my bones away
Crack my window, shed my shadow
Excavate my pain and I found peace
And I found peace and I found peace

Hold me up into the light and
Study every part of me
I'm an open book, no, I don't mind
But sometimes I'm hard to read
Just flesh and bone, I'm headed home
But this life is so hard to leave
But who am I when they cut
The lights and nobody's watching me?
Hold me up into the light and
Study every part of me
I'm an open book, no, I don't mind
But sometimes I'm hard to read
Just flesh and bone, I'm headed home
But this life is so hard to leave
But who am I when they cut
The lights and nobody's watching me? Gemini
