Vytal MC - Sandman Lyrics

Details, the devil's in the details, but we sail
Through this life, selling ourselves short like bargain retail
We think we got it all, but the catch is we're still raw
Even if you got a parachute, one day you still gone fall
We can't fly high forever, soaring on vain endeavors
When you come back to the ground, you'll realize you were never
As important as you thought, you're just one of many bodies
Walking through this life like a zombie in a living body
That's no way to live, but that's what so many settle for
You're no Olympic diver so what you gone get your medal for
Metaphors, similes, Onomatopoeias, it don't matter how I word it, we are nothing Without Jesus
Deep down I wanna believe that I'll never have to slumber
But like it or not, I'll be another cemetery number
If I waste my life, it's nobody else's fault but mine
So why fight against God, one day we will all flatline

I came from the dust, you came from the dust
We going back, We going back, We going back to dust
I came from the dust, you came from the dust
We going back, We going back, We going back to
Sandman, Sandman, body bag, body bag
Sandman, Sandman, body bag, body bag
Sandman, Sandman, body bag
We going back, We going back, We going back to dust

You could be fully functioning yesterday, on your way out today
And gone by tomorrow, that's the progression that we all will face
You could die of old age, or maybe you'll catch a disease
Maybe your airplane will crash over one of the seven seas
Anything could happen to you, but it shouldn't make you scared
If anything, it should make you more prepared and more aware
See the signs of the times, calamity is everywhere
Keeping God on our minds the only way we're free from all life's cares
Everyday we're getting older, I just saw my first gray hair
No more new kids on the block, we'll be the elders with no hair
But with age comes wisdom, at least it's supposed to
You must work with Logic even if you're used to using Pro Tools
Is your mind heaven bound or are you thinking local
Is Christ enough for you?, if not you should change your focal
Life is challenging enough, we must know who to go to
Only one way to the Father and we know who to go through

I came from the dust, you came from the dust
We going back, We going back, We going back to dust
I came from the dust, you came from the dust
We going back, We going back, We going back to
Sandman, Sandman, body bag, body bag
Sandman, Sandman, body bag, body bag
Sandman, Sandman, body bag
We going back, We going back, We going back to dust
