My life was on overdrive
Taking on this stress and pain without sacrifice
My mind was on borrowed time
And it wouldn't have been so clear
Without this hole inside my head
(I have a brand new perspective)
Without this fucking hole in my head
And it wouldn't have been so fucking clear

Exhaust

It’s so familiar, the smoke that's choking me out
It’s ever soothing as I black out
I'm overdosing on your lack of faith
Overgrowth cut short as I disassociate
As I disassociate
You thought you flew under my radar
But now you're right in my sights (and now I'm lining my shots)
I'm gonna take back all the shit you stole as a source to ignite
I caught you running your mouth
Running around and fucking biting my sound
If you wanna be me just fucking say so
But there will only be one of us leaving
I put in blood, sweat, and tears as investments in this art
But you just woke up one day and decided it was yours
You think it’s funny while the money keeps on piling up
But everyone can see who’s really coming up
I cut the foliage to expose the snakes, grab them by the fangs
Drip the venom into my hands (it’s your new drug)
It’s the new black
You can sell your fine print to the next poor soul who'll trust you
I'm fucking exhausted and I simply can’t be near you
A carbon copy, mirror image
You're fucking sloppy, now we're finished
A carbon copy, mirror image
You're fucking sloppy, now we're finished
Keep tripping over every name you've dropped
I’ll watch your career get cropped

Prescribed for my self deprecation
Couldn't handle me at my worst
It's all a lie that they feed to the public
While their pockets begin to fill
Inscribed follow each direction
Read every word like your life is in your own hands
Then maybe you will begin to feel something
(Feel something)
I can't buy in to a pill making me happy
I watch my friends all dying around me
You have choice to make every day worth living
Don't lose your voice as you're swallowing half-hearted prescriptions
This should make you feel better
This should make me feel better
Nothing makes me feel better
No, you kept on preaching and preaching
And now we are all codependent
No, you kept us reaching and reaching for more
There is no end in sight
No, you kept on preaching and preaching
And now we are all codependent
No, you kept us reaching and reaching for more
There is no end in sight

Your silence is complicity
Your words don't mean shit to me
They mean nothing
I know it’s hard to accept the outcome of circumstance
And I know what it feels like when breathing becomes a chore
The hurt and the anguish that you feel do not go unnoticed
I see it in your eyes, the look of the broken
Your silence to our hate is complicity
And no amount of apologies will ever change my views
Your silence to our hate is what fuels me
But the truth is we don't need your understanding
(I took your place and now we're one in the same)
It's hard to place the blame when we all share the shame
We're equal parts in this disgusting mess
It’s hard to place the guilt when nothing's ever fair
Two sides of the same coin and no one fucking cares
We all rot in the shame
We are one in the same
We all rot
(We all rot) as one, together in this melting pot
Every outcome, the same, we have to accept
(We all rot) as one slowly dying at a rapid pace
Stop climbing your way to the top
(We all rot) as one, together in this melting pot
Every outcome, the same, we have to accept
(We all rot) as one slowly dying at a rapid pace
Stop climbing your way to the top
WE ALL ROT

Ask

SPEAK about what you know
ASK until the answers show
THINK before you take that step
REACT to the lies you've been fed
Speak, ask, think, and react
Don't stand there and watch
While your loved ones fight back
Your voice needs to be heard and your prayers won't do shit
Thousands of miles away, trying to fight just to live
SPEAK
ASK
THINK
REACT
While your loved ones fight back

It's taken me almost 11 years
To relieve myself from you
And to the lies and the pain left in my head
I know I never want to see you again
I never want to see you again
It's so toxic when all you do is talk shit
The saying is what goes around comes around bitch
It's one sided, and I'm done trying
To deal with all of your problems
Walking over me as I bleed out onto the floor
(From you repeatedly) stabbing me in the back
No one left for me to depend on
You've lost a good man (a true friend)
Not just someone you can use as a punching bag
Walk away from me before I say what needs to be said
This has to end
Unapologetic
Acting like you don't mean to be upset
Force me to be different
Picking egg shells out from my feet
And I'm done with your force feeding bullshit
I rip the spoon from my mouth and spit out
I'm upset by the way things ended,
Ended without a bullet in your temple
No more
I'll bet you die alone
I'm upset with the way things ended
Ended without a bullet in your temple
Rip out my eyes so I don't see you again
I've got a nine with your name and I'll bet you've got the same
This is my exit

You throw your arms around me
And you say that it's us against the world
But the truth of the matter is
It's been me against you all along
I’ve been surrounded by fake niggas
That say that they had my back
But now I’m left here jaded
And I’m ready to fucking snap
Dropped into a world of shit
Wake up everyday
It’s the same fucking thing
The days are growing longer
My mind is growing colder
But I'll cross that blue line
With my shiny nine millimeter
Why do I walk that line?
A fine line for me and my own life
By surrounding my mental with your negative vessel
How can I fight back?
They love to hate
They love to say
What isn’t fucking true
While all along
There isn't anyone that doubts you
What can I do?
What can I say?
Why do I give a fuck?
Cause for these last few years
I've seen right through you
Now I know just who you are
You've become underwhelming
But the truth of the matter will always be
You were never my ally
Now I know just who you are
You've become underwhelming
But the truth of the matter will always be
You were never my ally
(You were never my ally)
(You were never my ally)

Empty Hope

Something else that was said
Still lingers inside of my head
Are you leaving a note?
Am I leaving?
It’s time to learn
Every word that I said was just not enough
As I’m leaving your house
Are you leaving me now?
Silence, I am consumed
Were the last words that we spoke the ones that I must continue to dwell on?
Every line now at the forefront and tearing at my mind
Picking apart every word until I'm comfortably numb
Silence is all that I'm left with
Your absence a reminder of your brokenness
Why must these lessons teach us nothing?
They say time will heal us all
But I will not feed that empty hope
You tied that fucking rope and took your life
Are you leaving me now?
Are you leaving me now?

How can I make sense of this
When you try and claim innocence?
Building lies up higher and higher this has to end
No remorse
No remorse for what you did
You said you loved me
But you never loved me
You said you need me
But all you do is hurt me
Pull the trigger
(Pull the trigger)
Before you drag me under
Am I one step closer?
Pull me under
(Pull me under)
Hate courses through me
It's always consuming
It's always consuming
It's always consuming
And blurring my vision
These thoughts are consuming
I’m about to cave in
And I'm seeing red for the thousandth time
And I'm sick of drowning inside your mind
Is it loud and clear?
Am I getting through?
Or do you think that it's all in my head?
Slow my hatred at your sight
As your begging and pleading and praying for death
No justice
(No cell)
Could ever be as sweet as this
Departing
With the cancer
You've become
As you speak with your loaded tongue
No one left to claim here
Accept pain as your fucking own
I'm done running away from you
No more soaking up your abuse
Fuck you
You don't think I know
But bitch I know you well
I am not your slave
Watch me blow you away
I set my spirit free
I set my spirit free

You’re either with us
Or fucking against us
I'm tired of hearing the same old song and dance
And I'm sorry won't resonate with your fans
I don't sympathize for you even for a second
And I hope that this is a turning point for you to learn your lesson
(Learn your lesson)
And every time you open your mouth to speak
It's like daggers piercing through my ears
We don't want to hear it
We dont give a fuck
Your actions are your own
Don't press your luck
I've said it, I meant it, I hope in time no one will forget it
You chose your own path that paved a way for a future
A future of solitude, a future of loneliness
A future where no one give a single fuck about you
So choke on your emptiness
(Swallow your selfishness)
And every time you open your mouth to speak
It's like daggers piercing through my ears
And everytime you pull that petty shit
It infuriates me
You will get no sympathy
You will get no sympathy
No sympathy from me
You will get no sympathy
(Get no sympathy)
Get no sympathy
From me
