Lyrics: Sage Elsesser/Kaseem Ryan
Music: Sage Elsesser/Kaseem Ryan
[Intro]
There was no day for him now, and there was no night
There was but a long stretch of time
A long stretch of time that was very short
And then, the end
Toward no one in the world did he feel any fear now
For he knew that fear was useless
And toward no one in the world did he feel any hate now
For he knew that hate would not help him
[Verse 1: Navy Blue]
I can't have this heart of glass broken (Broken)
My last notion on this path, until I fast-forward
Till the point of my collapse within my sad story
Come and take a ride, or take a dive within my past quarries
I'm alive, was only five when I knew death, attuned his breath with mine
Exercise of depth, bereft is mandatory
The allegory often is detested by the wrath of glory
I just can't imagine that I had it sorted
Magic ordinance, detachment from the floor, I lift the latch
Felt it all attack, the tragedy, it's torturous (Torturous)
Foreign borders where I tore me out the fortified
Coordinates lie ahead, where everybody born to die
Tell me, are you sure of it?
Worked too hard to live in vain, so I refrain to forfeit it
Orbit's but a cycle, angel Michael with the sword to lift and strike a beast
Somethin' 'bout the lightning when it strike beneath
Found a gift within the message that I'm siftin' through
Fed the witches blood, 'cause my tradition has its rituals
Givin' room to breathe, centuries of human grief accumulate and leave
Can't you see that it's all cyclical?
[Chorus]
When you no longer hear me, I'm here
When you no longer hear me, I'm here
When you no longer see me, I'm free (I'm free)
I'm from the field, make use of my shield
When you no longer hear me, I'm healed (Mm)
When you no longer hear me, I'm healed
When you no longer see me, I'm free (I'm free)
I'm from the field, make use of my shield
[Verse 2: Ka]
Heaven knew, it's 7-2, grew too fast to rear
She had a haunch and lunchbox, Moms packed the prayer
Driven, livin' in the flat, didn't have jack to spare
We grip .4s for applause, no claps or cheer
Born tired, both wrong side when tracks are near
To crack malaise, watch happy days during my saddest year
Never lies, had to sever ties with fam, was that severe
Cryin' only got you beat harder, it's smarter to mask the tear
Beast was near, to be sincere, these moments all I had to share
So I doubly mull it over, never show lack of care
Sick and wicked world, where the flattest fare
Appears the establishment only want establish fear
Correct, protectin' you and yours is all that matters here
Believe in even, could reason with a demon if I had his ear
Put it all on the line, risked even more my last career
To unobstruct yours, makin' sure this path is clear
Been sayin', soothed since youth, my truth match the dare
Generally him and injuries while I attack the pen
[Chorus]
When you no longer hear me, I'm here
When you no longer hear me, I'm here
When you no longer see me, I'm free (I'm free)
I'm from the field, make use of my shield
When you no longer hear me, I'm healed (Mm)
When you no longer hear me, I'm healed
When you no longer see me, I'm free (I'm free)
I'm from the field, make use of my shield
