Voices (feat. Adam O’Farrill) - JIL

I feel calm in the caos Feel at home when i get lost I feel cold in the sunlight Wide awake in the late night I hear sounds when it's quiet I'm not rich but I'll buy it I feel alone im the middle Of all these people I do How could it be wrong When everything is right on the outside Let the beat go down Riding the chill of my spine How could be wrong When everybody says I'm just fine I'll tell that to the... Voices in my mind Uh, uh Voices in my mind I see light in the darkness I find love in the heartless Play it cool in disorder 'Cause I find sense on the madness Would you take my hand and run To the mouth of oblivion Feeling alone in the middle With all of these people with me How could it be wrong When everything is right on the outside Let the beat go down Riding the chill of your spine How could be wrong When everybody says I'm just fine And I'll tell that to the... Voices in my mind Uh Voices in my mind Oh, oow Voices in mind We're one and the same We play the game But it won't finish fist Won't even place But it's ok Don't gain If we don't hurt How could it be wrong When everything is right on the outside Let the beat go down Riding the chill of your spine How could it be wrong When everybody says I'm just fine I'll tell that to the... Voices in my mind Uh, uh Voices in my mind How could it be wrong When everything is right on the outside Let the beat go down Riding the chill of your spine How could it be wrong When everybody says I'm just fine I'll tell that to the... Voices in my mind (You tell that to the) voices in my mind (To the) Voices in my mind Voices in my mind

This story is getting old Turn a blind eye while it unfolds Why do i feel so cold? It was somewhere along the way All my colours turned into gray and I felt it Why am I to stay? Something's wrong it's controlling my mind Makes me numb and it turns me blind I'm losing it I'm losing it The scene has changed the dark takes hold Need to stop from caving in Can't catch my breath cause I feel so cold Silence the voices from within Silence the voices from within A chill running down my spine It's trying to tell me to fold my hand and quit I'm out of time Something's wrong it's controlling my mind Makes me numb and it turns me blind Please show me why I have to stay The scene has changed the dark takes hold Need to stop from caving in Can't catch my breath cause I feel so cold Silence the voices from within A scar from a past I can't erase A hole in my chest I can't replace But I can feel it in my bones I still feel it beneath the skin Feel it beneath my skin I try to run away but it grabs hold of me I feel myself decay it takes me under And I can't breathe No I can't breathe I'm losing it But I don't want to disappear To disappear The scene has changed the dark takes hold Need to stop from caving in Can't catch my breath cause I feel so cold Silence the voices from within A scar from a past I can't erase A hole in my chest I can't replace But I can feel it in my bones I still feel it beneath the skin

In my head Y-y-y-yo, yeah Far away from home, Ima-im-imagination roams Everybody, everybody, everybody's wrong, re-wrote the song Thoughts become action, tell me what's happenin' What's your mind wrapped in and wrapped around? Wra-wrapped around, wra-wra-wrapped around What's, what's your mind wrapped in and wrapped around? Psyche sabotage, your Nike's need a jog Portraits in the fog, filter out the smo-o-og Information log, so fast the past recalls You back the future stalls, fade to black the present calls Pour out some liquor for the homies lost For the homies, for the homies, for the homies lost Pour out some liquor for the homies lost Gone away, I'ma make you say in my head Hella mem-erase, mem-erase Mem-mem-erase, mem-erase Mem-erase, mem-erase Yo, yo, yo, yeah, yo Yo, y-yo, yo, yeah, yo, yo Those voices, those voices, those voices Those voices in my head, those voices in my head If you don't pose the writing on the wall It's lovely when the stars all align, it'll be fun Far away from home, imagination roams Everybody's wrong, rewrote the song Those voices, those voices, those voices, those voices Those voices in my head, those voices in my head Those voices, those voices, those voices, those voices Those voices in my head, those voices in my head Those voices, those voices, those voices, those voices Those voices in my head, those voices in my head You're too fat, you're too thin (you're too fat, you're too thin) You're too small, you're too tall (you're too small, you're too tall) Confidence remindin' all, I probably won't get the call A pessimist won't take the risk, no, name's not on the list, treat it Take a piss on your dreams, heat it Hard to believe when you don't believe it, you don't need it It's destined, run laps around a lesson, miracles Blessin', oppressed with the stressin', forever guessin' Vision blocked, no need for props The pimpin' stops, pluckin' and pullin', he love me not's Stay inside the box, the safe locked, you won't be mocked Fully stocked of excuses, doin' it is useless Faithless, popped, the ball was in yo hands Slipped and dropped, I cram to understand Your life flipped and flopped, cancel all your plans You just missed your stop Those voices call, call Come and make me sing Those voices call, call Come and make me sing Those voices Those voices in my head Those voices, those voices in my head If you don't pose the writing on the wall It's lovely when the stars all align it'll be fun Far away from home, imagination roams Everybody's wrong, re-wrote the song

I was lost, in a cloud of doubt In a sea of questions Kept swimming but it got me nowhere I was stuffed by the endless drought By unlearned lessons Found a truth, in pursuit of you In my sea of questions Kept swimming but it got me nowhere I was wrong about who I was About what I've done And where I come from Still sleeping on couches Crashed at a couple of houses Borrowed every part of my outfit, but that ain't about shit My life is a book full of changes Right now we just flipping through pages Living in ages back in time A travelling mind is trying to grasp the past that was left behind While exploring the signs that I have at hand What does it mean for a black man to be an active activist? Or an artist activated by hardships? And all this backwards involvement The struggle for a true sense of being Where nothing has any meaning and meaning is everything The severing of old friends and old ties The opening of blue skies and sunshine The truth lies in what changes at nighttime It's half time, I'm only half past mine I was lost, in a lucid lie In a low life high In a burning dream, couldn't see

I look around, what I see doesn't phase me Can't help but laugh Count every pound that I keep, it outweighs me Can't help but laugh, can't help but laugh I feel I'm drowned by my fear of behaving Can't help but laugh Just trying not to sink too deep Sometimes some thoughts can be endless So just try not to think Just trying not to sink too deep Sometimes some thoughts can be endless So just try not to think

Feel the feeling so clear Found a smile in your tears You can say that you care Can you say that you care? You're trying to find your words But someone has said them for you Believing the things you heard Your feelings have gone Cold Generation we grew old Too fast, or so we're told An entire nation sold On a trip to lose their souls Generation we grew old Too fast, or so we're told An entire nation sold On a trip to lose their souls We're awake inside our screens Sent to sleep in a cyber dream Are we really here? Looking into your pixel eyes I can see where your conscience lies Did you disappear? Hide behind the profile Found a lie in your smile You can say you know me Can you say you know me? You're trying to find your words But someone has said them for you Believing the things you heard Your feelings have gone Cold Generation we grew old Too fast, or so we're told An entire nation sold On a trip to lose their souls Generation we grew old Too fast, or so we're told An entire nation sold On a trip to lose their souls

She don't want me to see her cry She's trying Holding everything inside She's dying, dying Didn't think that you were here Didn't think that you could hear me She don't wanna let me near Cause like the rest of them, I'll fear her She don't wanna look inside She's trying Pushing everything aside She's dying Didn't want to be alone But didn't want to let my love in On an island, on her own Going nowhere feeling nothing A blood red moon, a deeper blue They make their way to you From where they bleed, they bleed Seeking further Seeking for their truth Peeking through the valleys in your mind To catch a glimpse of you (The light and energy that live within can never die, and forever shine on) Our sun burns fire Set fire to set you free She says she wants to fly But what does it really mean? Flying through the skies Lying through disguises She said she wants to fly But doesn't know what it means I️ know you know you're lying to yourself You know you're lying to yourself You ain't relying on yourself Ain't even trying for yourself You're a Virgin Atlantic You're a Virgin Atlantic You're a one way flight A burning bird, come crashing into paradise She don't want me to see her cry She's trying Holding everything inside She's dying Didn't want to be alone Didn't want to let my love in On an island on her own Going nowhere, feeling nothing
