Lyrics Escaping Arkham - Common Market

Escaping Arkham

Any place for a man of faith’s appropriate
When, knowing no comfort, wanna want for the opiate (I)
Hunted by scent, not cents, hundreds spent, poor things
Storied hunter falling to predatory lending
Creditors unforgiving of trespassers
Will they still be if ever forced to walk the path of Cassius
River City made me, incidentally, maybe
I’ll be champion type too, pray for me
Cause where I’m currently at’s against the rope and our odds
Amidst the vermin and rats then smoke on the water
If I bury this axe, friend or foe where you fall
Workin' to cash it back in then went and stole it all
And I’ll recoup but I ain’t ready yet
Besides all they’ve takin' is a lie, this is petty theft
Left with the better me
That flesh and treasury
Was too heavy to carry anyhow
Heaven so many miles (miles, miles)
Far away is the place I’m from, place I’m from
Waiting on a day that may not come, may not come (may not come)
Crazed and drunk they made you afraid of something
You may be stunned to find the bravest one
Don’t run away chasing the sun
Dig it
Already missing you
Whisper miserable, but my memory visceral
Yell as I’m held, suspended animation
Float over time and space and the scent of sanitation
Over the smoke and the smoldering waste
My holding pattern scattered for miles above annihilation
Spin off as I fend off the provocation
Wishin' I had a minute more to pin the observation
What I could leave to be the legacy
Never presented itself 'til I was sick of myself
Handful of my face, plagued with a case of leprosy
Moment of consolation came in this levitation
But I ain’t one to speak of regrets
I make commitments I unyieldingly kept
F-U see the rest K, I’mma sleep in a second
Cause when I make the introduction
You ain’t never late for meetings with death (death, uh)
Far away is the place I’m from, the place I’m from
Waiting on a day that may not come, it may not come
Crazed and drunk they made you afraid of something
You may be stunned to find the bravest one
Don’t run away chasing the sun
Far away is the place I’m from, the place I’m from
Waiting on a day that may not come, it may not come
Crazed and drunk they made you afraid of something
You may be stunned to find the bravest one
Don’t run away chasing the sun
