Lost 04:24
LOST I’m LOST On a ship floating in space Trying to escape my fate Made by my mistakes I’m LOST like a pirate lost at sea Searching for a money tree in corners of the galaxy Darting off with thoughts Bottled like a cocktail Malakoff waiting to be tossed like Jesus on a cross I’m LOST On a ship floating in space Trying to relate to a world drifting away on a cloud giving me shade blowing back another cloud lifted now thinking out loud on a beat as a backround I am rapidly losing sense of gravity something in the air must be grabbing me lost in life’s labyrinth Life is but a SHAM Sniffing blow and selling aspirin Trapped again Living in a rush I be trafficking Bringing back the diamond to the rough For my Africans Marching with Martian tribe Oval eyes on cakes and pies All we wanna do is live good and survive Life is such a prize lately realized when you lose it by surprise Homicide suicide I dont wanna die Searching for a better way to make it to the sky make it, make it to the sky X2 Drifting out in space, drifting out in space Drowning in my sorrows Getting bottles by the case Drifting out in space, drifting in of space Vacuumed in a black hole Leaving earth without a trace I'm Lost, I'm Lost I'm gone and I don't know where I'm going floating like a message in a bottle in the ocean I'm gone what do stars have to offer on a mission to give life from planet monster planet goner planet life's a fucking bitch till your rich than you die bye bye blue sky's spirit on a rise I be dead inside since I arrived alive Getting by resides on how I wanna die? How I wanna live I man I cannot afford about to be evicted from this Earth’s land lord ejected from to the core too hard to absorb my world my life my soul is a metaphor used to meta-morph turning to a mega force I'm just a distant orb trying to outsource our source to a better world where land is rich and money don't exist and anyone can pick from my endless weed forest planet ''E'' for euphoric meet you there when ready for it I be out of it, completely out of it drifting out in space on ship out of orbit X2 Drifting out in space, drifting out in space Drowning in my sorrows Getting bottles by the case Drifting out in space, drifting in of space Vacuumed in a black hole Leaving earth without a trace 3x I'm lost on a ship floating in space I'm lost, I'm lost X2 Drifting out in space, drifting out in space Drowning in my sorrows Getting bottles by the case Drifting out in space, drifting in of space Vacuumed in a black hole Leaving earth without a trace

Atlantis 03:32
Atlantis Drowning in Atlantis.... Drowning in Atlantis... Lost inside a city that's lost with in itself lost myself with the records on the shelf screaming help seems this city hanged itself using Orion's belt everybody wants a star for themselves now all I see is black skies underwater lost in sea tides see I wanna wash up on the sea side with a message in a bottle saying please buy with beats by RED I hope I never be misread been mislead to the depths of lakes where monster's wait to see us drown with an ankle weight I feel my feet sinking like a ship can't get a grip this illusion is to thick to shake or split could this be it? are we doomed to watch and sit? I am loosing it loosing air like a flying fish I'm going down watch me drown as our city sink I'm going down watch me drown as our city sink as our as our city sinks 5X I'm drowning I'm drowning in Atlantis 4X I'm drowning I'm drowning in Atlantis Atlantis.. Floating like a sub in a giant dirty bath there's a wall on my path that's about to feel my wrath I was dragged in by these tidal waves I'm a branded titled slave that lost all my human ways fumigated like a parasite it's hard to see our riches with a poor site of course I try to cut the tension like sword fight got the bull by the horns and I'm a stab it in his bull's eye Bull's eye! famished to submerge to new horizons cuz our anchored fear is unsatisfying time is flying out the window of this buried aquarium throwing in the towel in total despair man what's the point of this experiment buried in serum burying our feelings I feel sick I feel cold I feel I won't die old drowning in a city that's lost is a black hole.... Hey yo man I'm drowning you must be drowning too shit, this whole city's drowning well cheers to that.... to death... 5X I'm drowning I'm drowning in Atlantis 4X I'm drowning I'm drowning in Atlantis Atlantis.. Drowning in Atlantis Atlantis 5X I'm drowning I'm drowning in Atlantis Atlantis Atlantis

Some other time 2X Some other time (time) some other place (place) In a different skin with another face With different men in different race Stepping in and out of time shape shifting into mankind From the pharaohs to the Vikings I’ve been in and out of minds In and out of time Unlimited is my life span I’m part of all land I’m part of all man Infinitely evolving in someone else’s skin Humanoid or reptilian From Muslim to a Christian I’ve been put in all positions Part of my own opposition From the master to the slave slaving to the end of days I’ve had countless other entities .... As an immortal ball of energy ..... Changing vessels as it ages, life to life I go through stages Man this cycle never ends ..... All that changes is the lens At every death I have I swear I’m born again Searching for my origin In this turbulent system Trying to gather up wisdom To find out what is my mission Giving meaning to be living ..... Truth is hidden is locked away in my psychosis Going psycho trying to focus Trying to go into my past see the future before I crash .... How many times will I die how many lives will I have 2X Some other time (time) some other place (place) In a different skin with another face With different men in different race there's a part of me I can't unlock can't find the keys I am Lost in this Galaxy from star to star my soul restarts within the dark ..... from one planet to another undercover to discover the truth under every cover to reveal its true color ..... jumping in and out of warm holes yeah one world's gotta be home don't know where I come from don't know where I'm going I'm going I'm going can't stop till I'm knowing why your here why I'm here were all here but not here ..... stepping in and out of dimensions time here is endless soul searching in all direction from outer space to Atlantis I'm looking for some answers ...... from the first man in his cave to this futuristic age I've been reading all the signs from the walls to the page from the streets to the stage from the wild to the cage I'm a cast away casting all my rage in a sound wave till I find my place I'm a drift space looking for our interface 2X Some other time (time) some other place (place) In a different skin with another face With different men in different race
