lyrics

so how'd it happen?

and he was even born in depression
an isolated inception left him in a state of guessing
enticing his favourite weapon
to try and appraise the current phase in question
as to how his fate could possibly
be based in such a place

which sent him on a chase to find
an able guide,
awaited by a greater time
he trained his state of mind
in taking patience in the pride,
lest he'd fail to rise, fade away and die
and that's how brother learned to cope

he used these spare years to plant seeds
that'd one day bear fruits much bigger than the tree
little did he sleep, much did he dream
though he'd spend
more time thinking than doing
within his improvement

and kid was getting slicker
every time he spit a lick
but soon we'd find him in a slump
he'd only wish to fix
and he would lie and tell the world
it's been his only home
lo, alas we know the troubles of a lonely soul

travelling upon overgrown roads
mapped by the few and far in between bold
excavating old spirits in my spare time
peering into minds their experience is mine
