LYRIC FOR SALE

By Olu

[Verse 1]
Somehow I see the shadows growing near,
Somewhere I feel the whispers in my ear,
Something I know that keeps me awake at night,
In the devil I know, the truth never feels right.

Against the angel, with wings of pure light,
The doubts pull me down; I’m ready for the fight.

[Chorus]
Mine is mine, no matter what they say,
To the trash with the rags that don’t fade away,
What belongs to many belongs to none, it’s true,
At the fallen tree, the birds fly just like you.

[Verse 2]
The wind in time blows secrets everywhere,
Too many heads roll, but who even cares?
Uneasy lies the head when burdened with the crown,
South, West, East, and North, it's tough holding it down.

When I wash my dirty linen in the public eye,
I strip it bare, let the world see my lie.

[Chorus]
Mine is mine, no matter what they say,
To the trash with the rags that don’t fade away,
What belongs to many belongs to none, it’s true,
At the fallen tree, the birds fly just like you.

[Outro]
The crowns and rags don’t define who we are,
Let’s rise from the dirt, and shine like a star.
