Verse 1

My devilish thoughts split my soul in two

A struggle between the life I want and the one I’m gonna choose

I could never lose or handle the responsibility of my choice

My hands start to shake, anxiety in my voice

But I push on, hopin for a worthwhile endeavor

To negate the pain I’m gonna feel after the pleasure

And the pressure to overcome, all that I’ve done

In my dreams I’m being chased but there’s nowhere to run

And it’s not a possibility for me to wake up

Will the champion inside me, ever stand up?

To erase all the punches that I’ve taken head on

Until my last breath kisses my lungs

And my tongue I’ll leave behind

so my words you can cherish

Don’t let them take your minds or your future will perish

It’s important to understand that nothing is given

And if you want to wake up, stop the life that you’re livin’

Verse 2

When I open my eyes I’m never surprised

To walk outside and feel the mask

Covering jealousy, envy and lies

And the sex filled tapes that feed the mind of our young

No one’s responsible, the corporations duck and run

We inherit a mind that’s inherently numb

To perpetuate a system they don’t want overcome

By an intelligent thought, the use of a pen and pad

A blanket swept system that’s conveniently black

And white, an oversight? Why don’t you do the math

While they guide you with the right

They stab you in the back

It’s a mess were left with and there’s no one to blame

You can’t pinpoint a target or they’ll take you out the game

I write to fight the system with the mind that I’ve gained

And if I start to lose the mission, my words will remain

So stay sane and try to break free from the mold

Do you want to do what’s right or want to do what you’re told?
