Madness - Invictus (Lyrics by Jonah Falk)

Into
All my life I've been chasing people
Letting go eventually
When I really should be telling people
I'ma let you come to me
So I'll start walking if you fall off
Then it wasn't really meant to be
Those that matter are walking with me
So it wasn't really meant to be

Chorus A
I've been chasing people
Letting go eventually
I should be telling people
I'ma let you come to me
If you fall off
It wasn't meant to be
no, no, no
It wasn't meant to be

Chorus B
And it came from a place of sadness
Starting to march so it turned to madness
Broke into a run now I'm dodging traffic
Almost got hit but I couldn't have it

Verse 1
Bags packed running
Feeling lighter than I've ever been
Scared of the emptiness
Excited for filling it
If my life was written
I'd be out of commission
I want a quality rush and
I'm working on fulfilling it
Forging my own path for
Others I have visited
With happiness prohibited
I don't even consider it
Well that's a lie
It's a little bit more intricate
But for what it's worth
I think it's clear that I'll be risking it

Chorus A
I've been chasing people
Letting go eventually
I should be telling people
I'ma let you come to me
If you fall off
It wasn't meant to be
no, no, no
It wasn't meant to be

Chorus B
And it came from a place of sadness
Starting to march so it turned to madness
Broke into a run now I'm dodging traffic
Almost got hit but I couldn't have it

Verse 2
One day I'll look
Back like a Griffey hat
Reminisce of this and that
Laugh at all the stress
But til then I'm in the thick of that
This session of self expression
Has left me second guessing
It's a curse and a blessing
With perks and aggression
Just trying to keep learning
and build connections
Drawing parallels, sketches
Crowds and new perspectives
I'm a rebel cuz my major
Is your elective
Lies are corrected
When lives are affected
Funny how we thrive
On this online attention
When the greatest heroes
Go unnoticed or unmentioned
You think I figured it out
I'm no exception
Just trying to do something
Constructive with all this tension
See myself in these pages
And accepting my reflection
Knowing not a cent of this
Paper is my incentive

Chorus A
I've been chasing people
Letting go eventually
I should be telling people
I'ma let you come to me
If you fall off
It wasn't meant to be
no, no, no
It wasn't meant to be

Chorus B
And it came from a place of sadness
Starting to march so it turned to madness
Broke into a run now I'm dodging traffic
Almost got hit but I couldn't have it (have it)
