"Death of Ego" new recording
🕑 Added 2025-04-01 00:03:52 +0000 UTCHere's another project I've been working on! It's a song I posted a bit ago reimagined. The message meant a lot to me but I felt the last production was a bit to abstract. So I tried it again! There's a few more things I'd like to tweak and maybe a few vocals I want to redo but I feel it's getting there! Really hope you like it! Love you all!
Lost in this chasm of the infinite
Gained the world still II can’t escape this emptiness I’m
Never whole
All that I wanted was significance
Gaining more Still it never makes a difference
Here all alone
I’ve carried this burden
Silent and proud
Body was hurting
But never would bow
Bones shattered slowly
Crushed to the ground
Know it’s been killing me needlessly
Gotta lay it down
I swear that this pride’s the death of me
Drowning still I push away relief
Holding this anchor to my chest
Get nothing back but Lungs that can’t find breath
Why do I do this to myself
Can’t save the man
Who won’t be helped
I carried this burden
Silent and proud
My body was hurting
But never would bow
Bones shatter slowly
Crushed to the ground
Know it’s been killing me needlessly
Gotta lay it down
Stay don’t let me go
Just stay don’t let me go
Watch my body break
From all this weight I tried
To bear alone
Feel my pasts embrace
Paths I’ve paved
They left me on my own
How this ego takes it’s toll
Guess it’s time I let it go
Stay Just stay
Stay Stay
I carried this burden
Silent and proud
My body was hurting
But never would bow
Bones shatter slowly
Crushed to the ground
Know it’s been killing me needlessly
Gotta lay it down
Take this foolishness
And pride and
Bring it to the light
All this selfishness
Inside
Let all this ego die
It’s in death we come alive
It’s in death we come alive hey
