"Reflections" lyrics

"Reflections"

My reflection is the evidence of God I choose to revel in
It's Navy Blue, the Heaven-sent
Settled in the sedimentary rock, my body nestled in
Another world, another realm of loss, I know the depths of it

Be wary of them spirits that you steppin' with
Not all of them is problems, but a few of 'em gon' get you ki—
Sparrin' with the elements since elementary
Dazed, caught up in a cave, your evolution rudimentary

This spectrum is expansive, when I teeter like it's temptin' me
Recipes at the precipice of everything
The crux of what is never seen
A human being I have never been
I know it's more than just the four of me

I often wonder, what's before me?
The afterlife
The catalysts of never actin' right
A patch of light
Gatherin' the shadow where my laughter dies
The intersections of these paths of mine
I spun a web, I couldn't catch a cry
Catcher in the Rye
Tears wellin' in my eyes
Less than half the time
Meditation through these passin' times
Where my emotions and my ego collide
It's like I'm tethered in the depths of my desolate pride
But who am I?

Who are we?
Jugglin' these feelings that I deep
Karma got you livin' in a loop to soon repeat
Fast asleep, asleep

Awaken at the day's end, patiently the flames spin
I ain't got a name-kin
"Sage" is a title
Sage a true lover, but, Sage been a rival
Judged upon arrival, judgement on my livelihood
I struggle with survival
I was suicidal
That's the golden ratio, the structure of a spiral
The hero with a thousand faces, prophet or an idol?
Vacant at the heart of cause when I was sittin', idle
Obsessin' over death when I was simply missin' Michael
I am not a saviour, but a nigga God disciples

Judas blowin' kisses in the wind, and try and spite you
Wings stretchin' like an angel, or an eagle, I'ma fly through
Can't see eye-to-eye, it's heart-to-heart, I felt the line move
But is it true? I wonder

In, out
In, out
He too breathed again
Struggling now with his own breath to control it
Well, here he was, now
The room was quiet
What happened?
