A moment of silence for everything that we gave up
For our dreams
And this fake love
It's time to wake up
Handled my anxiety
Through isolation
While society required
Daily medication
Raised on
The illusion
I could fix myself
With nobodies help
Well at least that's how I think right now
So I'm stuck in this hell
Fighting just to keep my head strong
And my nose clean
Watching people I held close
Disappear Around me.
From dope fiend
To coasting around the states invoking
Passion in the form of a product you find revolting
I am just a servant of man
Trying to find a woke queen
In tune with everything
That can
Currently won't be
Solely emotional
Determined to let it go
Inverting design
I acquired in utero
Aspired to be more than the highs I was heading for
Settled for a spot at the top of a pedestal
You want peace
You want war
Well then it's time to settle the score
You want peace
You want war
Well then it's time to settle the score
Now who am I
A material object you overlooked
You'll understand from my mentions
When manic or overbooked
It's kinda sad my attention for panic has been reduced
Into a day to day routine
Where trauma is just the usual
Causal content
Turns into bomb threats
Speaker of the house
Might be the leader of the outfit
There's so much going on out there
That I can't even process
Some of us are so overwhelmed
We need to stop it
Chemical
Imbalance
In my cup
Drink away my day
To escape
Who We've become
If I was just a bit more honest id speak up
There's a bounty on my head
How the hell can I collect it
Basically wasting away to escape
The fate Of a man that I
Never met or believed in
I guess it's safe to say
Patterns will repeat until the sequence gets deleted
A culture shock is what we got and now it's time to feed it
You want peace
You want war
Well then it's time to settle the score
You want peace
You want war
Well then it's time to settle the score
Obnoxiously cautious
I guess I need to acknowledge
The f*cking passion I lost
When I gave this beat up to market myself as evil despite revealing my ego was wired
Fired an arsenal of violence
And somehow kept the alliance alive
If not the message that's blindly running right through my head
I'd probably let you push me closer to the f*cking edge
But if I jump off
Will that turn the sonnets to cries
Or will The fall be me important then the path of the climb
We can move it over
Just lower it to the left
And we can tell that you regret the decision by how you act
As if a blip in your direction forever left you a scar
I'm ready to debut
Let me hit the boulevard
Let me tell you bout the relapse and how it was overcame
Why the f*ck did I think addiction was just a phase
I guess I shoulda cooled it when shoveling up cocaine
Was it worth losing everything
To escape
Temporary pain
(Mistakes in a grave)
You want peace
You want war
Well then it's time to settle the score
You want peace
You want war
Well then it's time to settle the score
