[Verse 1]
Smoke clouds my eyes
Really can't decide
Who the fuck am I?
Fuck it, we go do or die
Journey through my mind, I bet you won't come back
Shit's on calm when my lights turn black
Watching demons talk with Jesus, crazy chats
And they mostly agree, what's the deal with that?
Back 'gainst the wall, so I can't step back
So I ain't really sure what I've been really looking at
Person in the mirror staring back is a king
Now I can't pick up, but my phone still rings
Yeah, I cried a little to reflect in the puddle
Threw a couple rocks to go with the rubble
External anger, internal struggle
External weakness, internal muscle
From the outside say the kid's so cool
For that same reason, yo, the kid's so full
Drownin' inside his thoughts, complexion
No lifeguards in this pool to protect him

[Verse 2]
Someone grabs him to save me
Redrawn light, but he's screaming erase me
From the outside, see, he seems so crazy
But if you saw the inside, could you really blame me?
But how could you see it?
Couldn't believe it
Memories to retrieve it
But you couldn't, so leave it
You couldn't walk my shoes
A couple mind to kinda find a flaw in every move
A chip in every two, saw puzzle feelin' loose
Trophy in my hands, still feel I'm about to lose
Yeah, some call it perfection
Me, I call it dumb ass shit that I'm stressin'
So I'm on some bomb ass shit for deflection
Tryna go negate lows instead of correct 'em
Cigarette lit for a light when it's dark
Sacrifice lungs for a little peace in the heart
Little feast for your thought, 'cause up's where I'm caught
Running back words, go, set, ready, on your mark
Always had a smile in a room full of problems
Everybody thought for some reason I could solve 'em
Always too scared to solve these equations
Laugh a whole lot just to hide where the pain is
Say I'm no different, say I'm on the same shit
The story go deeper than the spots where the paint chips

Abstract

Growing up in New Jersey, Luke Terkovich, otherwise known as Abstract, was involved with music at an early age. Learning how to play piano, electric guitar, and the drums were Luke’s first involvement with music — and he did it all before 6th grade. With a move across country from New Jersey to Jackson, Wyoming, the distance between learning and playing new instruments got larger. It wasn’t until several years later that Luke began to mess around with freestyling during his high school years spent at Jackson Hole High. Evolving his newly found musical expression into Raised in Jackson, WY, Abstract is known for his immense musical versatility and affinity for providing uplifting music for a turbulent world. With a knack for storytelling, he provides introspective motivation to all who take the time to dive into his work. Notably known for his remix of Ruth Bs Lost Boy “Neverland” which has garnered hundreds of millions of plays on YouTube, his work with Drumma Battalion and Roze, and his 2016 album Something to Write Home About. He heads a collective known as “A Team Worldwide” 5 musicians from 4 different countries. Producers Drumma Battalion of Norway, Blulake of Sweden, Cryo Music of Scotland, and Abstract. Coming off his first overseas tour with YONAS, the ATWW collective is gearing up to drop Abstracts new album/experience late summer 2018.writing detailed lyrics, he began to find that he could vent the stresses of his everyday life through creating music. Slowly progressing through the years of his new town where he calls home; balancing school, life, and music developed Luke to become Abstract.

Trying to find his sound was a young teenager who just looked to get something written down and then translated into music, and eventually rap. Still in his caterpillar stage of metamorphosis was a young Abstract who released his first ever collection of songs, properly named The Dream.

In 2012, through YouTube, Abstract met Craig McAllister, a producer from Glasgow, Scotland. During that period, Abstract was in the midst of working on On My Own Time and was the first time Craig showed up with Abstract. Afterwards, the duo started to mesh extremely well and produced the five projects, Under Lights & Microscopes, A Life To Live By, Dreaming With Eyes Open, The Science Of Feeling Tall, and We Are The Artist.
