GONNA SIT AND ROT

Gene Eric Mann

GONNA SIT AND ROT

Gonna sit and breathe and try to understand
How everything I suffer I’m clutching in my hand
Got to let them go at least I hope I can
Gonna sit and breathe and try to let them go
That’s everything I’m clutching I’m dropping in the flow
Everything I think I’ll trade for what I know

Gonna sit and stare at the nothing that I see
Gonna sit and breathe as I’m looking back at me
Gonna sit and fly and come around again
Gonna sit and waste and see if that’s a sin
Gonna sit and rot as I’m waiting for the end

Gonna sit and breathe and try to realize
How all the things that happen aren’t always seen with eyes
Sometimes what you see is filled with little lies
Gonna sit and breathe and try to cultivate
A path that’s clear of anguish and all the things I hate
Everything I fear I’m leaving with my fate
