When I was a boy there was some terrible shit that went down.
|
But still I hung around, to see if it would get better.
|
And when I was a lad, well I was lonely and I was sad.
|
But still I hung around, to see if it would get better.
|
And when I was the boss, well there was so many things that I lost.
|
But still I hung around, to see if I could win.
|
But I'm getting so tired of this contest, who comes out on top man I couldn't care less.
|
This smile you see I can do coz I practiced and I ain't ever gonna check this sadness.
|
You trust truth bare witness.
|
This shit is old, my angers been in control since like forever, on my eleventh year.
|
And what they stole, man I can never be whole not I ever, not even when I am no longer here.
|
So I built a wall, I built it sturdy and I built it tall. You cannot get around.
|
It's covered all in big graffiti.
|
That nothing can erase. Coz it's a permanent mark of disgrace that I will always feel whenever I look in a mirror.
|
You know I tried to hide, I tried to cover it all up inside.
|
But it still it comes around. Still it comes around.
|
I can never be normal unless I fake it, you say that you can but I know you can't take it.
|
This song might be long but on truth it's a statement that I ain't gonna ever shake the memory of that basement. Trust.
|
This shit is old, my angers been in control since like forever, on my eleventh year.
|
And what they stole, man I can never be whole not I ever, not even when I am no longer here.
|
And in the night-time, imaginations breed deadly violence, inflicted my friends.
|
Carry my brother, I think I'd rather, you had it better, write my own letter, found by my mother read it to no one in the end.
|
But when I dream I dream of paradise, one where I live somebody else's life.
|
Why can't I live somebody else's life?
|
Before this fear was here I was alright.
|
Before this fear was here I was alright.
|
Before they led me down the stairs.
