The pressure to please society glooms the weak minded Yet fulfillment blooms for those who are kind hearted
To be raised with the mindset, that mirrors everyone else Is just a metaphor for the pain of the belt
How can we understand each other With the basis we know everything ourselves When our happiness collects dust, sitting up on the top shelf
We grow from pain Living day to day
With wool placed over carved out eyes, being left reality blind Honesty is dead, honestly we've been mislead
The pressure to please society glooms the weak minded Yet fulfillment blooms for those who are kind hearted
To be raised with the mindset, that mirrors everyone else Is just a metaphor for the pain of the belt
We grow from pain Living day to day

Egotistic ignorance Self righteous innocence Pretentious abundance Youthful nonsense
I see no colour with what remains of my eyes Just a world that's been left in black and white
I see no colour Just black and white
Without sane company, my mind consumes me
Head in my hands is my only reward Brought to my knees, like leaves falling from forgotten trees All I do is plead, just to be ignored
We all tell lies to benefit our own lives
We're all shadows, born into the crowd I was born to fit in, but choose to stand out We're just shadows
Eat away at my conscious Prove me to be obnoxious No regard for my surroundings Who I really was is truly astounding
I refuse to wear the skin of the weak Just to hide everything I believe in Hiding behind closed doors, is just who I was before
Now I have the capacity, to overcome anything Misrepresenting who I am, by reinventing what I'm resenting

We're never truly alone Yet we've had this ideology etched into our bones Is there room left to grow Anything left to show
We experience our own perspective
So called free to live
Where loneliness is fueled by anger
Raised as free willed kids
But where do our dreams go? Do they reach as far as the stars? Do we lose our way into maturity? Where breathing is just continuity?
And our souls are as dead as they can be
Act as you've been shown Act like you've been told Freedom blown out of proportion, is just another act of extortion
Act as you've been shown Act like you've been told
Where we have to go, we've outgrown

Unrealistic expectations prove whole heartedly that I'm not ready for maturity Who I am differs from normal drastically, it's hard to please everybody equally
Social normalcy, hangs tirelessly, weighing down my spine, proving reality is supposedly the right frame of mind
Do we suffer differently, or when we cross paths, does pain last, beyond a point of secrecy Is acceptance really what I need, to be well paid and to be seen as a human that's made his name from a future that shows the choices I take or is that what means I've made a claim to fame Would success cause my eyes to bleed, as society tells me this is what I want and need
But tirelessly, I've agreed to live with everything I see and ignore the pleas of what truly screams from inside me
The screams for help and the angst that replaces the faces of everyone I meet, who just follow their feet
Constantly crying in my sleep, trying to understand why i can't turn my dreams into something that feeds off the sadness I seem to excrete
But I won't succumb to the crowd so easily, the choices I will make will ensure I have food on my plate
But it's never too late to escape the hands that would break under the pressure of balancing a clean slate
Crying in his sleep trying to understand his dreams

We earn for the privilege to spend Making sure we keep up with today's trends Living just to impress so called friends To stop our sanity from hitting dead ends
Hold your breath Play dead play dead
All we have to do is ask for help But our pride says that's not enough Becoming self reliant Just to show that we're tough
We should only have to focus on ourselves, instead of treading through hell, not to dwell on how we tell all these stories when we hit our forties screaming please please free me I wish I lived freely Please please free me I wish I lived freely
Hold out your hand and reach for a guarantee you'll still smile when you turn forty three
The past has passed yet memories last, would you be happy with the outcome that you spent your whole life working towards some materialistic reward, that you tried so hard to grasp
Please please free me I wish I lived freely

I've made mistakes That calls attention to the immaturity I display I can't remember the last time we've spoken I'm sweating, I'm choking
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
I can't comprehend my feelings My eyes are tearing, but I'm still breathing
I know you haven't forgotten me, but suddenly, I'm not who I used to be You can look at me differently I'll keep showing you me But only what you want to see
I'll watch everyone else grow I'll set the bar low That way you can be proud of someone I'll never know
