lyrics

Beat me down
Pain is never-ending
End it now
I’d rather not wake up another boring, lonely round
I keep it bottled up inside
Where no one dares to cast their sight
So I will not be hurt again
And I can last another night

Speed it up
The pressure’s incoming
I might just explode on this here beat
Say it loud
Bust eardrums
Guitar strings
My passion’s what will keep me going
Just know that I tried to reach my dreams
If I do not make it to see next week

I just wanna know I tried before I die
I don’t wanna leave this life unsatisfied
. . .
Feel the music in my bones
I feel hot like I’m Mike Jones
Bleeding heart into this work
Words entwined with some great rhymes
Tangled into painful lines which fuel the fire that’s inside
Phoenix, arise!

Let me see if I can recall better days without this stress and had no understanding of the systems which oppress and keep me locked down in a box as if We never broke Our chains, and now I have to sing like birds that have been cooped up in a cage.

I just wanna know I tried before I die
I don’t wanna leave this life unsatisfied…
