lyrics
I saw life, I saw a heart beat
Faster than my drum, faster than my feet
When I’m running down the road just so I can
Meet you like I did back then
I saw the sun, I saw the sky
I saw biblical floods pour down when you cry
I saw it all wash away, and then in the blink of an eye
I saw it back here again
I saw heaven, I saw hell, I saw a world between
I woke up on my kitchen floor, oh it was a dream
I saw the top of mother earth, and I saw the deepest hole
I sing the body electric, but I swear I saw a soul
Take a look while you’re able
There’s only so many stars in the sky
And I’ll count them all, they’ll say I’m unstable
Some things are just impossible to hide
But I saw stars
Stars
Stars
Stars
Stars
I saw you standing in the road beneath a different light
My rearview mirror ain’t rose tinted nearly as bad as my foresight
I saw a year go by reflected in your naked eye
I saw you wake up early, citing Sigma mindset and the grind
I saw a means to sustained survival
I saw the only way out
I stand accused, you put me on trial
I saw you plant the seed of doubt in common ground and then it grows
I see you now for what you are
I saw a sky devoid of stars
Faster than my drum, faster than my feet
When I’m running down the road just so I can
Meet you like I did back then
I saw the sun, I saw the sky
I saw biblical floods pour down when you cry
I saw it all wash away, and then in the blink of an eye
I saw it back here again
I saw heaven, I saw hell, I saw a world between
I woke up on my kitchen floor, oh it was a dream
I saw the top of mother earth, and I saw the deepest hole
I sing the body electric, but I swear I saw a soul
Take a look while you’re able
There’s only so many stars in the sky
And I’ll count them all, they’ll say I’m unstable
Some things are just impossible to hide
But I saw stars
Stars
Stars
Stars
Stars
I saw you standing in the road beneath a different light
My rearview mirror ain’t rose tinted nearly as bad as my foresight
I saw a year go by reflected in your naked eye
I saw you wake up early, citing Sigma mindset and the grind
I saw a means to sustained survival
I saw the only way out
I stand accused, you put me on trial
I saw you plant the seed of doubt in common ground and then it grows
I see you now for what you are
I saw a sky devoid of stars
