Architect of the Light

(Verse 1)

Woke up in the hills, feeling like a pharaoh

Looking in the mirror, see the soul, not the apparel

They told me "keep it simple," but my vision's in the aero

I’m a king in a kingdom where the road is getting narrow

Everything I touch, yeah, it’s gold, Midas in the booth

They want the lie wrapped in silk, I give 'em naked truth

I’m the glitch in the matrix, the static in the feed

I don't follow the garden, I’m planting the seed

(Chorus)

They want the old me, they want the soul beats

But I’m on a mountain where the air is getting lonely

Look at the stadium, look at the lights

I’m turning the shadows into the heights

(Wait—hold on—yeah)

I’m the architect of my own life

(Verse 2)

Five stars, ten cars, still I’m searching for the spark

Light years ahead, I’m the glow in the dark

They try to box me in, put a label on the crate

But how you judge a man when he’s challenging fate?

I’m a work in progress, I’m a masterpiece in ruins

Check the scoreboard, check the way that I’m movin'

Fashion week in Paris, then back to the soul

I’m losing my mind just to keep my control

(Outro)

No ceilings...

Just the sky...

They said I couldn't fly, so I built the wings...

(Synthesizer swells, heavy bass drops out)

I’m just a man with a God complex...

Or maybe just a God with a man complex?

Keep dreaming.

Keep dreaming.

(Fade out with heavy vocal distortion)
