Lyrics
First day of spring came in like a newsflash
Cali on lock and you cannot go back now
Your home is all you'll know
Better get used to your own reflection
Keepin distance and avoid depression
So you can see through all your lies
It's time to understand
What it means to be alive
Not running circles to survive
What have we done with all this time?
Living life so tongue tied
First day of spring came in like a newsflash
Cali on lock and you cannot go back now
Your home is all you'll know
Better get used to your own reflection
Keepin distance and avoid depression
So you can see through all your lies
I'm down and out but not kept out this fight
In the dark erase the light
In a time so unexpected
We can lay down and just accept it
Or stay up in this shit like it's unprotected
In our own shadows are soul's reflecting out
Reflecting out...reflecting out...reflecting...
First day of spring came in like a newsflash
Cali on lock and you cannot go back now
Your home is all you'll know
Better get used to your own reflection
Keepin distance and avoid depression
So you can see through all your lies
