Lucrecia Lucrecia - Brotherhood (feat. Sam Kohl)

I've been searching, seeking all these pieces that have long been forgotten
Can we stand on our own
We've been soul searching for who we are
For far too long
Solemnly, silently wandering
Waiting for the calm

We've been veering down a broken course of selfish skewed perceptions
Realign our paths and sight casting aside misguided ill intentions
No longer being led astray by the acts of their transgressions
A retraction to an endless cycle built on exclusions

Wane, let go we've always felt it, reach out grasp hold we are an illusion to ourselves
All our lives we have spectated yet never uttered a single word
Silently whispering incoherently
Continuing to squander away every little piece we've tried to overcome and to achieve

Malleable self deluded personalities
(You're not changing for yourself)
Buckling under the weight of mediocrity
(Or for any of them)

Enveloping their hearts in compassion and empathy, casting aside vanity and apathy
Illuminate these splintering fractured foundation encasing our tainted shattered glass souls
Break free from these rusted conducts that contain us
How long can we continue being a hollowed ghost of our real selves
These chains can no longer quell this malignant animosity we harbor inside

Excrement, we can no longer tolerate being force fed all of this fucking bullshit
We're seeing phantoms in our hallways
We're so concerned with what we aren't
Trading our souls for their cause

And buried our bodies in walls
A brittle foundation of self
The cracks in the face of our bones
Wane let go, we've always felt it
Reach out grasp hold we were meant for so much more
Are we alive are our hearts still heating barely clinging on, we're barely breathing
