James Field - Buried

Rachel told me that I'm over
Said I never had a moment
I am tired of her cold shoulder

I've got a couple things on my mind
Tryna escape for a minute or two, to unwind
Crackin' my teeth on busted pearls, tryna please this girl
I'm at the point where I'm just gonna up and travel the world
Whatever gives me the adrenaline of escape
I'm trying to think of peace, if I can remember the place
The amount work, time, tears, sweat, skin, money, blood, and anger
That I've poured into a prayer

Snap back to reality
All these bad habits breed
Round and round in a race, these horses keep galloping
Never reaching a goal, but we'll still add a dream
How mad Newton had to be to find gravity
Discover knowledge in the midst of these questions
Speaking about the future with my ancestors
Camp with whisky drinkers, blisters on callused fingers
I'm covered with dust and dirt from this desert, without an answer
Buried, feel like I'm buried
Thinking if Atlas knew what it was like to be carried
Predecessors of mine took care to mold me without a seam
I wonder if I'm the decedent they were hoping I'd be
But I'm gone

And I will ride till the sun's down
Till nothin' but stars fill the sky, and I'm the last one out
I am on fire
And this light, fills my eyes, as I reach higher

I never entered a room with a temptress
Though other men will woo a fictional princess
If it means thinking they get the best of it
They're inept and don't get it
Angel of Death pays 'em visit
I receive hate, like I'm draped, in the coat of Joseph
I fear none, Pandora's box I opened it
Like the gates of Egypt after Moses, split the ocean its
Thought provoking, conversations
Left 'em frozen with
The notion that
I bow down for no man, only the chosen and I am
A rock that's unwavering against the elements
Grounded with the feeling of being buried, but maybe I've embellished it
I've got to take care of the body that God gave me
Constantly reminding myself that God saved me
In this wasteland this mirage is hazy
I listen to this voice but no I'm not crazy

And I will ride till the sun's down
Till nothin' but stars fill the sky, and I'm the last one out
I am on fire
And this light, fills my eyes, as I reach higher

And I will ride till the sun's down
Till nothin' but stars fill the sky, and I'm the last one out
I am on fire
And this light, fills my eyes, as I reach higher
