The Art of Lost Art


(Spoken Word Rap Intro)
"Mind is in it more than the heart."
"Doubt is choking out the art."
"Open questions..."
"Ticking clock."
"Man, I'm just trying to find..."
"The lost art of lost art."
"When to end..."
"Where to start?"
Pre-Chorus
Bills are stacking to the sky.
Stormy weather passing by.
Every doorway has a lock.
Standing frozen in the shock.
(Verse 1)
How do I
Where do I,
When I do
Why do I-
(Chorus)
Even when my throat is closed,
And everything is foreclosed...
God knows.
God knows.
Only God knows what I know.
(Verse 2)
Sick of the same yet sick of change,
Everything and nothing, just chairs that rearrange.
Odds are high, the pressure screams.
Deadlines—and when I mean deadlines I mean age—are tearing at the dreams.
Trading magic for a cost,
Grieving everything lost.
((Verse 1 (Reprise))

How do I
Where do I,
When I do
Why do I-
(Bridge)
Brain is loud, chest is hollow.
Bitter pill I have to swallow.
My stomach wasn’t built for this world,
Just yesterday I hunched over as my intuition hurled.
Gridlock running through my veins.
Nothing cures these growing pains.
A buried soul... A broken heart.
Yeah, welcome to the lost art of lost art.
(Chorus)
Even when my throat is closed,
And everything is foreclosed...
God knows.
God knows.
Only God knows what I know.
(Outro)
Only God knows...
What I know.
The doors are closed.
The canvas of a life torn apart.
Just the lost art...
Of lost art.
Just the art of lost art.
