Anchors

Attach the anchors to my feet
There is no more horizons for me to see
I have been all there is for me to be
Now I want to sink to the bottom of the sea

After every night spent here in this moment
I glance up to the moon wishing I could hold it
Seeing the sun and thinking I could mold it
But all I ever did was take this life, I stole it

Every day was just an opportunity
To rise above with glorious maturity
Instead I drowned myself into my obscurity
Giving in to every senseless insecurity

Feeling numb and crushing coke
Rolling blunts and fucking hope
Filling cups and pumping dope
Life in flux and in a downward slope

With no parents to say this is foolish and crazy
I had no choice but to sink down low in dust and haze
No one knew and no one cared that I was lost on this broken cross
And in this maze I found home, Life was clear and clarity was hazy

After years apart and so many hearts ripped to shreds
After my eyes turned red and the disparity went to my head
I realized the size of this crushing tide that was pulling me in
I was founded in darkness and was lost in sin
