Kaleidoscope

[Intro] Pardon the mess (Hmm) This the part where you rest (Ooh) And you let go of the stress and the woe and regret (And the woe) And you floatin' like a feather to the hope in the crest (Ooh) While the orchestra bled from the oak in the chest Heaven sent, how my angel Reverend, how I praised you Heavy and my halo Pestilence, how they came through [Verse 1] Life through a kaleidoscope, right? Butterfly effect, tight flight Everything precise, every right is a slight Twilight be the right light for the knight But let me paint the picture proper Corner store at dusk, the copper Penny on the pavement, heads up, luck The kid with the telescope, lookin' up At the same sky that his grandfather saw Same roof, same rust, same flaw In the ceiling where the rain gets in But the colors shift when the light bends Kaleidoscope where the pavement splits On the asphalt where the past don't pass It just refracts into something new Same old block, different view [Chorus] Ayo, life through a kaleidoscope, right? Butterfly effect, tight flight Everything precise, every right is a slight Twilight be the right light for the knight Life through a kaleidoscope, right? Butterfly effect, tight flight Everything precise, every right is a slight Twilight be the right light for the knight [Verse 2] Let's put it in motion, came through floatin' This the part where the waves came open They get to movin' and groovin' and coastin' Neiggas start choosin', and you know who the most is We don't want much, just everything that you got I'ma stop once I get a percentage up off the top If you thought we was dumb, I think not We gon' keep it goin' 'til it pop, non-stop, neigga But what's the cost of the percentage? When the interest got you fenced in And the kaleidoscope start spinnin' faster Every color is a separate disaster Same lens, different fracture Same dream, different capture [Chorus] Ayo, life through a kaleidoscope, right? Butterfly effect, tight flight Everything precise, every right is a slight Twilight be the right light for the knight Life through a kaleidoscope, right? Butterfly effect, tight flight Everything precise, every right is a slight Twilight be the right light for the knight [Verse 3] The kid with the telescope grew up Still lookin' through the lens, still stuck On the same stars that don't align Same patterns that don't define Who he is, just where he stood Same oak in the chest, same wood Same orchestra, same bleed Same kaleidoscope, same need To see it different, see it shift See the pattern and the rift See the color in the crack See the future, see it back [Bridge] All I'm seein' is brown, a little bit of blue But all I really need is you Do you wanna see it too? Through the lens, we ascend, don't pretend Through the kaleidoscope again All I'm seein' is brown, a little bit of blue But all I really need is you Do you wanna see it too? Through the lens, we ascend, don't pretend Through the kaleidoscope again [Chorus] Ayo, life through a kaleidoscope, right? Butterfly effect, tight flight Everything precise, every right is a slight Twilight be the right light for the knight Life through a kaleidoscope, right? Butterfly effect, tight flight Everything precise, every right is a slight Twilight be the right light for the knight [Outro] Pardon the mess (Hmm) This the part where you rest (Ooh) And you let go of the stress and the woe and regret Floatin' like a feather to the hope in the crest Heaven sent, how my angel Reverend, how I praised you Heavy and my halo Pestilence, how they came through Through the kaleidoscope again
