Luke Leavitt - THE ISLAND Lyrics

Hypothetical critical
Theoretical cynical individuals
No I can't let them fit in my schedule

They try to talk me down
They say (you're not all that)
I wonder how they'd react
If they were to hear me rap

A white kid making songs
Passing his classes
Getting shoved to the side
Because he's wearing his glasses, why
If not to take deadly aim
Either way, it would've stayed the same, yeah

I just wanna leave (I just wanna leave)
I just wanna be me (I wanna be me)
No one's gonna outdo you
Outdo you at being you, being you

Life is like an island
In the sea with all the people
All the people who've said things
That made my bones weaker
Thought I had burnt that bridge
I worried all week
For something I should've done
I should've buried it down deeper

Silence has never been so violent
Blood dripping from my ears
It's like I'm on the island again
Slow down (slow down)
Your ego's taking the pen
Slow down, make it easy
Take some deep breaths
