Turn my mic up louder, I got to say something
Lightweights step it aside when we come in
Feel it in your chest, the syllables get pumping
People on the street, they panic and start running
Words on loose-leaf sheet complete coming
I jump in my mind and summon the rhyme Im dumping
Healing the blind, I promise to let the sun in
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drumming
Jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumping
Fuck that, I wanna see some fists pumping
Risk something, take back whats yours
Say something that you know they might attack you for
Cause Im sick of being treated like I have before
Like its stupid standing for what Im standing for
Like this wars really just a different brand of war
Like it doesnt cater to rich and abandon poor
Like they understand you in the back of the jet
When you cant put gas in your tank
These fuckers are laughing their way to the bank and cashing the check
Asking you to have compassion and have some respect
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay
And the rest of the world watching at the end of the day
In the living room laughing, like, What did he say?
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control I fear is never-ending
Controlling, I cant seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence
Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take
Ive felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection
Its haunting how I cant seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence
Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take
Ive felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real
(Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming) Confusing what is real
(This lack of self-control I fear is never-ending
Controlling) Confusing what is real
