Brother Ali - Here Lyrics
Are you here to confuse me? (x5)Woman, I gave you the grand tourThere's no reason for you to look closerBut you do so I show youIt ain't pretty here now but it will beOne day I promise, when the sun rays are honestI chip away at the tint on the windowsStain in the glass, it's a pain in the assI scrape and I scratch til my arms grow wearyMeanwhile I warned you not to stand near meI think I built the fence a little lateThe demons were already in, now they can't escapeI've been toe to toe with most of em' thoughAs a whole they must perish in order for me to growHuddled in the gloomy little cracks that they inhabitThey pass away the day I deactivate my habitsEach one gets buried in the backyardIn tiny little graves marked only by a black scarKindly watch your stepThis silence isn't finished being awkward yetTrophies lay in the basement to stay safeToday's mistakes are in a lighted trophy case thoughAnd I want you to knowI only invited you 'cause I ain't thought you would showBut I'll be damned if you ain't grab my handAnd presented yourself from the threshold of the heartlandAre you here to confuse me (x2)I don't mean to confuse you (x2)You'll notice antique swords adorn the wallsThey're really not here for decoration at allI save them shits from old relationshipsand I swing 'em at you later if you stay in the mixDon't you realize nobody's really been inside hereSince it was last drenched in dry tearsDecorating was a senseless idea'Cause only the blind lonely prince resides hereWe dine here on a balanced dietEgo when it's loud, self-hatred when it's quietInside the castle this is what the life isSign here after you read the fine printIt's not much, but all of it's yoursTake great caution if you want to exploreWatch your head when you opening the doorsAnd always remember that the choice was yoursAnd I want you to knowI only invited you 'cause I ain't thought you would showBut I'll be damned if you ain't grab my handAnd presented yourself from the threshold of the heartlandAre you here to confuse me (x4)Are you.. are you.. breathing?
