It Seems feat. Kiirstin Marilyn

from Liberate Through Economics by Ryan Lucas

lyrics

She kept pictures of Gramps in phone wallpaper.
Marching downtown moving through skyscrapers.
Years of hard labor many reasons to quit.
She lived life. Couldn't find the meaning in it.
Habits she wouldn't kick. Baby girl getting sick.
Strategies won't commit. Lords raising that rent.
She was searching for wisdom. All she hear is gossip.
Like eating soup trying to use chopsticks.
Flashbacks of tragedy. Steps from insanity.
Ex-boyfriends really showing their humanity.
Covers up in vanity. Don't like herself.
Folding up on the cards that her life had dealt.
Some days she does well but her nights are hell.
Burdened down by the secrets she don't like to tell.
Two hands, two choices and cry for help.
Clinging to Gramps pic as the knife is held

Even when I'm blind and I can't see,
And the world seems something scary,
You come to my mind and you say to me
Things ain't all as it seems.

Even when I'm blind and I can't see,
And the world seems something scary,
You come to my mind and you say to me
Things ain't all as it seems.

She laid in a room all day. No windows.
Hidden under covers. Colored tablet on the pillow.
Calls from the kinfolk. Future in a limbo.
Showed up. Liquor on the breathe then sent home.
Under all pressure. Un-diagnosed syndrome.
Doctor left a message yesterday about the lymph nodes.
Heart's been caught in the cold with a thin coat.
Even with the sun dark seems monumental.
Grandma says: "You have strength to continue."
Grandma says, "It just a story that you been through."
Grandma says, "It'll work how its suppose to.
No need to apologize to for being you.
Disappointment builds determination.
Trust the process when the seasons changing.
Find a smile even when you swim up stream.
And remember it ain't really all what it seems."

Even when I'm blind and I can't see,
And the world seems something scary,
You come to my mind and you say to me
Things ain't all as it seems.

Even when I'm blind and I can't see,
And the world seems something scary,
You come to my mind and you say to me
Things ain't all as it seems.
