No one sees the world the way I do
Growing up I wanted to be like you
And it's only fair that I tell you now
That it's all front, I've been lied to
Everybody's fake, they don't like you
And old friends you had? They don't write you
Said they're busy, didn't pay no mind
Fact of matter, didn't make the time
Okay
The world gonna wait for me now
Life opened doors, too late to sneak out
She's my rebound
So hold your peace or you'll never speak so
Don't look at me foul
No
Don't crucify me, don't lose your mind
This growing up thing is suicide
Keep it all a hundred, never be polite
Second guess the future and you'll lose the fight
Nevermind, nevermind
Keep me in my cell
Don't know why
Don't know why I can't just be myself
You get high, get me high
To escape my shell
We just lie to keep alive
Till we see ourselves
Okay
I never knew the world was such a messy place
The demons on my side
They only wanna come and play
I think too much about going without leaving a trace
But that's too easy
I won't go down without a fight
No one sees the world the way I do
As an adult, I hate that I'm like you
And it's only fair that I break the rules
Cause they gave the mic to me
Everybody gets drunk every night
But when I try to have fun they don't like it
Take a blade and drive the knife deeper
Talking in my sleep
This dime I might keep her
Wanna stray from the default setting
Wanna take another piece already
Of the cake they owe me
Know it's on the way
And it's only time 'fore I finally break
What can I say?
I'm frozen in place
They're waiting for any mistake
They want me to fall
Don't want me to go
They're waiting for me to behave
Okay
I never knew the world was such a messy place
The demons on my side
They only wanna come and play
I think too much about going without leaving a trace
But that's too easy
I won't go down without a fight
My imagination gon be my death
Life is cold, I can see your breath
Incarceration, feed the flesh
When I get old I wanna be the best
Nevermind, nevermind
Keep me in my cell
Don't know why
Don't know why I can't just be myself
You get high, get me high
To escape my shell
We just lie to keep alive
Till we see ourselves
Okay
I never knew the world was such a messy place
The demons on my side
They only wanna come and play
I think too much about going without leaving a trace
But that's too easy
I won't go down without a fight
Okay
I never knew the world was such a messy place
The demons on my side
They only wanna come and play
I think too much about going without leaving a trace
But that's too easy
I won't go down without a fight
