Traveler

JaySketch's Notes
The intro is more like spoken poetry, while the rest is a mixture of singing and rapping.
[Intro]
Throughout life's twists and turns,
sometimes we stop to reconfirm,
that everything is still around us,
and the worlds not about to burn,
and that the ones we love are safe,
although we've made all these mistakes,
there's still some stakes at play,
and some choices left to make,
and some days that we must go through,
and even though you're not the old you,
you're still you,
so just hold through,
and remember where you've been,
because our lives are not forever,
we'd be too blind to pretend,
that death will never find us,
in embers all things end,
[Verse 1]
Things never, work out,
feels like I'm jinxed, like I'm the worst child,
I really do try, but they don't see,
I'm just one guy, woe with me,
too many noises, too little peace,
too many choices, too little sleep,
All I feels numb, social outcast,
I'd try to hang with them,
but they weren't about that,
still alone, used to it,
unknown, everyone is just stupid,
feels like everything's fake,
Am I even real?
think I made a mistake,
I need a better deal,
quit telling me, "don't stress it",
overlooked the wreckage,
you don't get it,
what you took from that message,
you don't get me,
and I guess its a sign,
you should be set free,
but not me,
I watch as the prison bus leaves from my cell,
can't breathe in this hell,
and a midst all misery, I see that no one even sees,
and no one even cares,
no, no one will care for me
[Chorus]
To travel the road I walk,
you would not dare,
I stop and wonder a lot,
how I got here,
To travel the road I walk,
you should fear,
but the only thing I want,
is not there,
[Verse 2]
Things never, work out,
my fuckin love life,
is just a curse now,
its like a floor tiled,
defiled by a pile of bleeding hearts,
forensics probably come in,
tear the buildin the apart,
I stare into the stars,
contemplating better days,
but they all seem so far,
all just dreams and no starts,
call a being to beam me up,
I'm ready to leave tomorrow,
no grievin , no sorrow,
but I'm still here,
feet grounded,
on the blue sphere,
feelin surrounded,
by these demons there not just in my head anymore,
I see em all the time and there threatening war,
I don't know whats in store,
I keep on striving and aspiring,
I can't take no more,
its all driving me defining,
I'm a skate through the door,
enter another life,
wash up on another shore,
maybe next time do it right,
[Bridge]
Theres no peace for the traveler,
carries his grief everywhere he leaves,
[Chorus]
To travel the road I walk,
you would not dare,
I stop and wonder a lot,
how I got here,
To travel the road I walk,
you should fear,
but the only thing I want,
is not there,
[Outro]
Theres no peace for the traveler,
carries his grief everywhere he leaves,
Theres no peace for the traveler,
and there's no peace for me,
