Lyrics Into The Abyss - Hilltop Hoods

Into The Abyss

Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
I feel like I’ve been here before, real life or dreaming, unsure
When all my travels could all unravel in a heartbeat or a thought
And if my legacy’s abolished then whatever we accomplished
Did it for the pedigree, I don’t see an enemy, then to me y’all are potentially
accomplice
'Cause some men rise above, some men fight enough
Till there struggling becomes them and are defined as such, who the fuck then
divided us?
It’s like I’m born every morning, die every evening, war at my door reviving my
demons
I’d rather die with my convictions than live a life with no meaning, so I
Hold court like the king of the mountain hall, everyone, everything is
accountable
Face the music and embrace the truth of all that makes us human then I think
I’d be proud of y’all
If I am, all I said I am and we are, all in together and
From where I stand I’m just tryna get a plan to build a better man for this
Neverland
Maybe a dreamer, make believer, try escape the ether
But the great deceiver lives inside to feed a basic need for
Identity of own, set me in stone near my legacy to grow then I’ll never be alone
It’s the music that’ll ferry me to home
I’m not lost, I’ve been following my own path
Not blind, been looking at my future, not past
Ain’t done, staring into the abyss daily
Until that man in the mirror ain’t me
I’m not lost, I’ve been following my own path
Not blind, been looking at my future, not past
Ain’t done, staring into the abyss daily
Until that man in the mirror ain’t me
Ayy
Feel like I’ve been here before, in the abyss, looking up to the great expanse
Stars in the sky, stars in my eyes, won’t stop till their stars in my hands
Feel like I landed on Mars, I feel abandoned in fact
They’re all on Dancing with Stars making fun of artists who actually rap
I lost my confidence till I got on my flex
Now can’t tell me nothing, city all suffering, tell God he got a Suffa complex
I’m draped in the belt of Orion, I’m praying the truth rings out
They’re saying the loud things quiet, we’re saying the quiet things loud
I wanna rock right now, want every single rapper on the block wiped out
Everybody coming at the Hilltop, lights out, you’re running down seconds on the
clock, time out
What?
Pipe down, we don’t care what you think of us, we’re the shit and you
can’t sit with us
You tryna fly by clinging to Icarus, I’m tryna drive by liquor and cigarettes
I’m tryna be a better man, ask Eddie Vedder man, I’m tryna be Clark
I feel like Letterman, hiding my venom in a coffee mug with a broken heart
Open bars probably going to kill me if all this touring don’t
From the heart sincerely, all I want really is to watch my children grow
I’m not lost, I’ve been following my own path
Not blind, been looking at my future, not past
Ain’t done, staring into the abyss daily
Until that man in the mirror ain’t me
I’m not lost, I’ve been following my own path
Not blind, been looking at my future, not past
Ain’t done, staring into the abyss daily
Until that man in the mirror ain’t me
