You are a sycophant and I'm sick of it.
Sucking the life right out of me;
Counted my breaths & watched me bleed.
(Watch your back)
This grave is marked for you.
We're not the same, you and me,
Heaven knows what we've been through.
(Christian Fisher)
Cast me out,
So I can finally find my self worth down
under this shattered shell of dreams.
I will not embrace this
Constant state of shame.
This is a call
To the outcast and underdogs.
Take a breath in our lungs;
We're screaming our hearts out.
We won't stop until we're
Voiceless on the ground.
How is my heart still beating
With all the ice in my veins? (all the ice in my veins).
We were born to live this way.
You wrote the book on best intentions,
and if I had a page for every one you'd fell through on,
I'd have a guide on how to set yourself up for failure.
(You're making mistakes a new art form)
It'd be a shame if you broke your neck
Doing a double take
To catch a glimpse of my life. (It's a wreck)
But Don't look away,
You might miss us.
We were born to live this way,
We were made to make mistakes.
