Can you read through my rhetoric
With these layers of my literate
With these feelings of a reverent
While looking for the benevolent
Heart with the sentiment
Looking at the predicament
Wanting for a betterment
And opposed to the beguilement
I don't want to be negligent
On the ways of the pestilent
Keen with their testament
Of life and its elements
Their control now is evident
To those of enlightenment
With thoughts of the penitent
Hope my voice is resonant
Look me in my eyes
And tell me I'm full of lies
Brains going deeper
There are thoughts here to despise
Cuz I will notarize
This passion not the pride
I'm coming for you now
All the pettiness in your crimes
Who wrote me wrong
But I left it right
I'm that flickering flame
Just out of your sight
Maybe one day
You'll grasp it along
That I'm talking about going deeper
Than the beat of this song
At least in this moment
I'll keep it frozen in time
Been writing my heart out
Going in line after line
Until that I feel there is nothing left
Returning the power you took from me
And get it all back
Let it fuel something in you
Let it build passion and grow
I'm giving this to you
So let it bestow
You think you saw the best of me
Well I was just faking
I got one night to live
And it's mine for the taking
Been loving each day
Thinking about my own death
Pushing my brain deeper
Until there is nothing left
I can feel myself cracking
There's words to be said
This chatter box is clacking
Till it's off with his head
This suicidal boy
He never got his death wish
Pushing against it now
Gruntled with bliss
I'm aiming at you now
And I hardly ever miss
I was living at that low
And I want to reminisce
I'm picking up my weight
And cutting off any slack
I don't want to be tripped up
Or held back
True friends believe in you
And don't beat you down
Every time I leave you
I feel empty and frown
So I'll say my goodbyes
Because it's my time to go
Gotta get going now
Gotta trudge down this road
For real though you see me
Understand I'm leaving
For a better life I'm seeking
I don't need your tweaking
I see my own power
And the places that I'll go
I want to plant my own seeds
And watch them grow
I've already given so much
I should have been defeated
I'm lost and I'm heated
Kind of salt for how I was mistreated
All these gifted things
And experiences in the making
All you are about to see
This one man army
