People are falling
Into a place they've never seen
The times are changing
Forgetting what seems to be clean
You can't let this seep into your head
For as you write these walls
Build yourself up
And I fill these gaps inside my head
With memory of peace instead
To try, to keep my pride and joy spread
Prevent the dream from being dead
We can't stop you
From taking what is yours
Oh these four years
Don't let go of who you are
You can't let this seep into your head
For as you write these walls
Build yourself up
And I fill these gaps inside my head
With memory of peace instead
To try, to keep my pride and joy spread
Prevent the dream from being dead

My Own

As my words crawl through my lips
Become a lost sound amongst a thousand voices
That creek in my ears, while I'm just standing there
I reach out my hand to the ones not listening
Asking to receive the notes I'm screaming out
I see the world more clearly through my eyes
To make my name is only my right
I place my values (and) judgements oh so high
Delivering my mind and body
My face takes the place of some
While my body still remains in one
A hard shell won't soften the blow, while I'm just standing there
I reach out my hand to the ones not listening
Asking to receive the notes I'm screaming out
I see the world more clearly through my eyes
To make my name is only my right
I place my values (and) judgements oh so high
Delivering my mind and body

Drown

Haven’t you noticed
Every time I swim I almost drown?
Eyes losing focus,
My feet are searching for the ground.
I need something solid,
Something to hold my body,
Broken and squalid,
Asking for pity.
There’s nowhere on Earth for me-
Not after you flood my home
Give me the sand
So I can stick my head in it.
Get me to land
Where you can drown it in your shit
Allow me to
Sail away from perpetual
dissatisfaction
There’s nowhere on Earth for me-
Not after you flood my home and drain my sea
I used to love the excess
But I’m getting sick of it
When I’m drowned in pounds of filth,
When I’m buried in your shit
There’s nowhere on Earth for me-
Not after you flood my home and drain my sea

Vultures

You think you can
Callously Condemn
your women for
All of your problems?
Addressing the problems with-
Out their protagonist
Won’t help to solve them
She shoulders the boulder
That You placed upon on her,
Given To you by culture.
You claim you’re so cultured while
You give the vultures
The means to oppress her.
Don’t let yourself be blind, stay blind
Don’t let yourself be blind, stay blind
To anybody else’s pain
Instead you focus on your gain
Don’t let yourself be blind, stay blind
How can a man like yourself
Prop a woman as evil?
She did you no wrong,
She is not its cause; Shouldn’t
You take pause before you
Sink your jaws into her?
Blame Uncle Sam for your pain;
Yes, you do, but you stain
Women with your blood
From struggles of misuse, like
They don’t have enough. Try
Putting yourself in their shoes.
Don’t let yourself be blind, stay blind
Don’t let yourself be blind, stay blind
To anybody else’s pain
Instead you focus on your gain
Don’t let yourself be blind, stay blind

Homesickness

Your mother stayed close to home-
She expected the same from you. But
You, the smart one, favorite child,
Didn’t promise what you couldn’t keep.
That weight you feel every time
You think about skipping town-
It drags your stomach so low
You’d do anything to lighten the load.
You, the smart one, favorite child,
Didn’t promise what you couldn’t keep.
But you still kept your home,
Not your sanity, not your dignity.
That weight inside your stomach
Comes from your lifestyle
Built on flipping greasy burgers
And mixing chocolate malts.
You, little dodo, can’t fly
When you’ve lost your ability.
You, little dodo, can’t fly
When you’ve lost your ability.
You, the smart one, favorite child,
Didn’t promise what you couldn’t keep.
But you still kept your home,
Not your sanity, not your dignity.
