letter from orpheus

I promised my father That I wouldn't go Down to the depths No, I wouldn't go But lately, I've been down But nobody will ever see I know I'm closest to my enemies Look me in the eyes when you look at me So when we die I know you were my brother Trying to make it all seem right 'Cause when it ain't right you can't go farther So let us make a toast my lover If we got love what's a dollar? Please tell me what you mean When you say you ain't got what you need In this moment I'm having trouble finding me and it hurts The me that does not let anybody determine my worth But I try and remember what you got is what you deserve You better be thankful simply 'cause you walk on this earth Do not let your ego get too big be humble in space 'Cause the planets and moons and galaxies will laugh in your face There's nothing to be sad about So what you sad about? The doubts that flood up in your mind? You gotta drown them out Remember death is around the corner but never fear it Dry up all those tears of pain 'cause they will rust your spirit It's easier said than done but if you want it then you'll get it When you make up your mind you'll realize you are indebted And I'd rather be in debt to myself than someone else So I could check my Louie bag and lay it on the belt I ain't materialistic but I'm with the riches I'd spend some racks on myself But millions on my children Wow I can't believe this is now how I think A year ago I wouldn't even have seen myself with kids But after pops died I had to stop lying I had to face the fact that I cannot stop time And even though I'm sitting here feeling like I'm a young profit Reality is I ain't shit I just use my one optic And I'd still carry my wisdom if I got no pockets All 'cause I just want to see myself go farther Trying to make it all seem right 'Cause when it ain't right you can't go farther So let us make a toast my lover If we got love what's a dollar? Please tell me what you mean When you say you ain't got what you need I just want to see myself go farther Trying to make it all seem right 'Cause when it ain't right you can't go farther So let us make a toast my lover If we got love what's a dollar? Please tell me what you mean When you say you ain't got what you need
