I keep spinning and spinning Circling down this pit of despair What have I done to bring this pain upon myself The light always gets darker at the end of the tunnel I have everything to fear What has brought me back here I've lost myself I look around and all I seem to see is absence of solace and comfort What has brought us back here Surrounded by everything we fear Life's looking like there is no way out It all seems so bleak I can't continue this false image that I am that weak I'm my own lost idol Trapped inside this Chaotic Cycle I keep spinning and spinning Circling down this pit of despair What have I done to bring this pain upon myself The light always gets darker at the end of the tunnel I have everything to fear What has brought me back here I've found myself I'm my own lost idol Trapped inside this Chaotic Cycle (Spinning and spinning...) I am so fucked trying to be this worlds crutch We're all so fucked trying to be this worlds crutch No, no, no, no We're all so fucked so just let me rot We're all so fucked just let me rot Just let me rot We're so fucked Just let me rot Just let me rot

Stay quiet Stay calm Can't let them know what's going on in my thoughts Blood hits the ground, I try to ignore it It's not your problem but you know it's over dumb shit It's not your problem but you know it's over dumb shit I'm trying to become a changed man Can't let the streets tell me who I am This family is falling apart This neighborhood has become a part of my heart So much love in all the wrong places Just trying to survive as the weather changes Stay in my lane and focus on the children Put food on the table, make sure no one kills them Can't let them know what's going on in my brain Crying every night just to release the pain No one really cares about what happens here My mind's overwhelmed by possibilities At the end of the day we're just scum I never knew i'd turn out to be scum I'm cursed, i'm cursed, i'm cursed I'll never find my worth I'm cursed, i'm cursed, i'm cursed Trapped inside this worthless planet Earth I'm cursed, i'm cursed in this planet Earth

Lost in black Fade to grey Doesn't matter 'cause we all die the same way I'm not saying I condone it Some of my friends got bodies on 'em, I say fuck it I'm against the violence, I don't get it But what would you do? What the fuck would you do if you grew up in this fucking mess? Everyday's a fight for survival Lost in black Fade to grey Doesn't matter 'cause we all die the same way I'm not saying I condone it Some of my friends got bodies on 'em, I say fuck it I'm against the violence, I don't get it But what would you do? What the fuck would you do if you grew up in this fucking mess? I'm getting sick and tired of all these shots And getting tired of all these shitty blocks Why don't you fuck off and let us find our own way Had enough wondering if it is my last day I never understood 12 getting in my fucking way And I may be lost Again I may be failing in my sin Cut me away I'm drowning in this array I'm just drowning in this array I don't condone this shit All of this makes me sick The last thing I need is you all judging me I'm not defined by the company I keep Crawling, scratching, and climbing my way out By any means necessary Don't talk shit about what you know nothing about (You don't know shit, you don't know shit) Don't talk shit about what you know nothing about (You don't know shit, you don't know)

I thought you were once a brother to me We shouldered your weight Why can’t you see I’m tired of you thinking you’re on top But you can only get so high Until you drop off Until you drop off Take the stage, it’s all for you You must be desperate to be in people’s view Claiming to be as deep as the ocean But only as shallow as it’s shores If you only understood How this all comes together People’s feelings change Just like the weather People’s feelings change Just like the weather Take the stage, it’s all for you You must be desperate to be in people’s view Claiming to be as deep as the ocean But only as shallow as it’s shores

Split 02:18
Like splitting hairs life takes it's toll Constantly thinking back to the innocence you stole Now i'm left only with this A borken moral compass A life full of grey areas No right, no wrong I've come to yet another branching path But once I choose There's no going back I can't help someone if I can't help myself If I don't know whats right for me then God help someone else Then God help someone else Do I take the high road or do I sink further And crawl back to old habits? Until my neck meets the rope Until my neck meets the Rope Torn in between what's right and what's wrong Cracking under the pressure I forgot to be strong Cracking under the pressure I forgot what it is to be strong Blood is thicker than water But you can still drown in both You can still drown

Dissonance 04:14
I regret all of my ways And I regret choosing the gutter I come from blood impure Brick feet with tainted affiliation I tried to run from what I thought would hurt me But ended up hurting myself But ended up hurting myself Choices made for my life at a different time before I truly lived I pushed too hard to be accepted Now I will die alone This tortured soul trapped in my pathetic skin I guess I'm really broken but how would I know I'm always self medicating, trying to blur the memories of defeat In this moment of rare clarity i'll scream to the world That i'm not proud of nothing i've done I don't know myself I don't know myself Choices made for my life at a different time before I truly lived I pushed too hard to be accepted Now I will die alone This tortured soul trapped in my pathetic skin I guess I'm really broken but how would I know I'm always self medicating, trying to blur the memories of defeat In this moment of rare clarity i'll scream to the world That i'm not proud of nothing i've done I don't know myself I don't know myself Leave me alone I'll only drag you down to my own personal Hell

I've lost everything I have Everything I was I've lost everything I have Everything I was Everything I will be Depression pressed in concrete Emotions crushed under the weight My soul peeled away to reveal the parasite My soul is peeled away to reveal my own self Depression pressed in concrete Emotions crushed under the weight I'm not a martyr i'm a shell of a broken man Defeated, defeated A failure of my destiny My innocence has been drawn and quartered My grave is not of this Earth I'm searching for something Between all the silence Reading between the lines Of all of this violence All of this violence All of this violence I've lost everything I have Everything I was Everything I will be We're made to believe that there's one path for all men They say it's how the world turns but its all bullshit It's just a front for selfishness Maybe i'm not the problem

Yes i'm broken and I think I can't be fixed Spilling out my heart from behind this pulpit Maybe it's only a matter of time until I finally catch my own nine Praying and begging God to let me grow old Maybe one day i'll be a man who can stay gold I've been running on empty since my birth Maybe it's only a matter of time until I finally catch my own nine Praying and begging God to let me grow old Maybe one day i'll be a man who can stay gold Hopefully these worlds will set me free Only then will my family truly know me Maybe it's only a matter of time until I finally catch my own nine Praying and begging God to let me grow old Maybe one day i'll be a man who can stay gold Music is my only therapy My best friends are the only ones that know me

Up and left in the night just like the air in my lungs For years i've been waiting for this song to be sung I guess your true love was forever in drugs Leaving the family you once said that you loved Fuck you, fuck you Never once spoke the truth Fuck you, fuck you Never once spoke the truth Fuck you, fuck you You never spoke the truth It was always about you It was always about you The perfect example of what I hate I will never be like you, I will never be like you Until this Earth turns me to dust Forever forgotten, forever untouched I see your fate You will never be enough This is the end of you This is the end of us Breaking free for you was never an option Your addiction made you solely obnoxious Back in the day I was never any better But now I've grown, ill be healing here forever I won't say that I stand by all the fucked up minds But it's reality that stays in our fucked up lives Mankind is a plague, and that's making it vague
