ORION

[Intro]

(Woah-oh)

(Woah-oh)

(Woah-oh)

(Woah-oh)

[Verse 1]

Mama don't sleep well

She worried ’bout the kids all night

And the kids don't eat well

They worry 'bout their mama so they hustle on the side

Daddy workin’ three jobs

The sweat keeps drippin' in the Buffalo sunshine

So he drives that car

Promises, "Someday, mama, we will be alright"

[Chorus]

And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground

Sometimes, it feels like quicksand

Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down

And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground

Sometimes, it feels like quicksand

Quicksand’s pullin’ me down, down, down

[Verse 2]

Sister's got a new car

No new friends, she got money in the bank

And every day, she works hard, she plays hard

Baby knows how to drink

Her brother’s in a bad place

Takes prescriptions for pain to keep his demons at bay

So she, so she drives that car

Promises, "Someday, brother, we gon' be alright"

[Chorus]

And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground

Sometimes, it feels like quicksand

Quicksand’s pullin' me down, down, down

And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground

Sometimes, it feels like quicksand

Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down

[Post-Chorus]

(Woah-oh)

It's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh)

Sometimes, it feels like quicksand (Woah-oh)

Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh)

[Bridge]

Every day, I pray and I pray

Feels like there ain't no escape

Every day, I pray and I pray

I pray that I find my way

Every day, I pray and I pray

Feels like there ain't no escape

Every day, I pray and I pray

I gotta find an escape

[Chorus]

And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground

Sometimes, it feels like quicksand

Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down

And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground

Sometimes, it feels like quicksand

Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down (It's pullin' me down)

[Outro]

(Woah-oh; it's pullin' me down)

It's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh; it's pullin' me down)

Sometimes, it feels like quicksand (Woah-oh)

Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh)

(Woah-oh; it's pullin' me down)

It's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh; it's pullin' me down, oh)

Sometimes, it feels like quicksand (Woah-oh)

Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh)

[Verse 1]

Did you settle on an alter ego?

Did you settle all your debts, my dear?

GPS to the Lincoln tunnel

And we finally in the clear

[Pre-Chorus]

Here we go, oh, oh

Here we go, oh, oh

[Chorus]

Into the wasteland

These dead-end streets I call my home

Into the wasteland

Yeah, I'm goin' back where I belong

Into the wasteland

To the wasteland

[Verse 2]

Gettin' high on my old street corner

Sayin', "Goddamn it, I hate this town"

But there's somethin' triumphant, a bittersweet revenge

'Bout comin' back when you're feeling beat down

[Pre-Chorus]

Here we go, oh, oh

To the place I know

[Chorus]

Into the wasteland

These dead-end streets I call my home

Into the wasteland

Yeah, I'm goin' back where I belong

Into the wasteland

Oh, to the wasteland

[Intro]

Baruch atah Adonai Elohenu, melekh ha'olam, shehecheyanu v'kiy'manu v'higianu laz'man hazeh

Blessed art thou, o Lord our God, King of the universe, you give us life, health and many mysteries to pursue

Amen

[Verse: Sam Harris]

I don't know how to pray

But here I am in this bathroom, hopin' you'll come back soon

Knees on the floor, prayin' to a Lord I don't know

I don't know how to pray

'Cause if I did, I'd be worthless, all I know is curses

You let me down, still, I'm feelin' guilty somehow

So here I go, "Oh, God, oh, God, oh, God, what do I do?

I've got, I've gotta ask a favor from you

And I know, I know we've never spoken before

But I hope you hear me, oh, Lord

Please let my brother live

And let me learn to forgive

And why do bad things happen to good people?

That's all, I guess, amen"

And God said—

[Outro: [?] & [?]]

...where you're definitely not the same person you were as a kid, but then you sort of come back full circle when you sort of start to become comfortable with who you are (Right) and less trying to be something or someone.

Yeah, do you guess that was kind of like, your, at the basis of, like, a part of your struggle as a kid, like trying, feeling like you didn't know yourself?

I feel like that was something for everyone (Right) and everything. I feel like during my twenties, one of the biggest struggles for me was, you know, finding love.
