Dom McLennon - Down (My First Song) Lyrics
feat. Sample: Brian Eno - By This RiverDown for my people, but are they down for me?I look at my surroundings and what I am bound to beI’m treated like revolving doors from what your eyes can seeThese people waltzing in and out my life it’s sad to me…It’s like a tragedy, am I a travesty?Sometimes I feel pathetic like I’m just a comedyCause I laugh at myself when I look at my dispositionsWhen the people that I think are close exclude me in decisionsThe simple things are hardest it’s a factIt’s hard to lay to rest but I can lay a couple tracksAnd I can write a paper that will analyze a hookBut I can’t judge a cover cause my life is more than looksWe feed off our emotions; some of us tend to starveMemory lane has potholes and it’s share of battle scarsOne day your plans and goals were concrete, but now it’s hardAnd it’s not long til’ your broken dreams become a boulevardYou’re walking down the street and see a pictureOf you and a past lover and realize how much you miss 'emThe only thing we could wish for would be *****ing closureBut nothing goes as planned when things seem to be truly overBreak up the bonds and make a bridge from all the piecesI hope it's been traversed before you set it all ablazeWe live and learn from life although we question all the reasonsBut all that we can do in our story is turn the pageDown and out, but my last name ain’t MescudiI’m loathed by a couple, but some other people love meSo under the radar most think that they are just above meBut the totem pole shows strength from the bottom up, you must seeI have a vision, I know I can achieve itBut I don’t know what waits for me when I finally reach itAnd all these revelations that I have of people preachingThe real and fake are usually the ones guilty of cheatingCutting all the corners, confusing noise and soundBecause if you can’t recognize real? then look aroundAnd I know that one day I’ll be the king and hold a crownBut if I have no royal court the empire’s falling down
