Felt it taking over me, this monster inside
And a fire burned in my chest where my confidence died
This animal in my heart and soul is not to be tried
If you can't see the beast approach you better open your eyes
He ain't me!
Yes I am, I'm the you that you can't stand
The you that you locked away in a cell on a bed of sand
The you that you were ashamed to exist outside the plan
I'm the you that just kept it real and refused to give a damn
You ain't me
Don't fight it
You've been enlightened
Excitement building, you're frightened
I'm guidance and ya license to k** when you're writing
Wait. You can stop trippin
I know you hear me, now listen
I don't want to be a monster and this just ain't your decision
I am you, I'm a weapon
That formed from your perception
Of shadows of pure emotion
The truth of your confession is me
Every bridge that we burn adds to the heat
But light it up the flames k**ing the beast!
No we're not the same
You can't make me believe
This soul is mine
And I stand for peace
I'm everything you ever wanted to be
Minus every person you heard that ever k**ed your dreams
Your rock when their throwing stones and you're just hiding beneath
I'm your stress, hatred and grief, the air that you breathe
You can't be me!
Seeing is believing
Cover my eyes
Ima k** the messenger
Forget a reply
You're not me
You're probably some kinda copy
All I see is these rookies who mock me, tryna block me
Man drop the ego, life itself is a lie
There's some blood and a couple stories then more blood when you die
And that's it
The reason that babies cry
Sinister lullabies
I know that you're dead inside
I am you
No we're not the same
You can't make me believe
This soul is mine
And I stand for peace!
I'm everything you ever wanted to be
Minus every person you heard that ever k**ed your dreams
Your rock when they throwing stones and you're just hiding beneath
I'm your stress, hatred and grief, the air that you breathe
You can't be me!
You're not, you're a devil with yellow eyes
I'm light, I'm love and I'm fate
You're a shrouded, clouded disguise
Punk with a strong voice but your tails in between your thighs
Took the face of the wolf
But the wolf better realize I'm the alpha and I can show him exactly the reason why
What?
You making threats? Now you're testing my patience
Debating whether or not I should give your breath a vacation
Just for the vindication
You're trying to visit my basement?
I am you!
The you that you couldn't stand
I am you!
Locked in a cell on a bed of sand
I am you!
Ashamed to exist outside the plan
I am you!
Kept it real and refused to give a damn b**h I am you!
I'm everything you ever wanted to be
Minus every person you heard that ever k**ed your dreams
Your rock when they throwing stones and you just hiding beneath
I'm your stress, hatred and grief, the air that you breathe
