Ruse (Rap) - We Are Who We Are lyrics

[Verse 1] It's too much. When I'm alone, I don't wanna do stuff Today, they made fun of my new cuts I'm a loser, told my so-called friend I had a new crush The next day, she crushes me sayin I'm a f*ggot and f***ed up I guess he was like the rest of em I should know by now; it's a cycle, a f***in pendulum He was laughin when it happened I needed him and, instead, he was laughin at my sadness They say that it gets easier with practice But the impact hits harder everytime they get at it Try to hide my reaction but sometimes I just crack and That's when they start blastin me. This is Hell I'd get help but I'm scared of it as well Everytime I try to open up, I'm quickly shut down I'm gonna give up cause I just can't keep this up How am I supposed to when not one person gives a f***? I need a friend. Too far in for them to stop me though Just hopeless hopin for a decent end It won't happen but it doesn't matter Nothin does. We all know the world'll keep movin after I close my chapter. I'm sure those a**holes'll be happier When I'm dead. Sorry mom and dad, I tried my best but I failed this tried test I feel the air rising in my chest. I guess it's time for d**h. Goodbye, cruel world Signed, Ted [Hey, just remember that we are who we are When you hear about a dead kid that was pushed too far Nonetheless, anybody can change Especially you, if what I've said has boggled your brain Hey, just remember that we are who we are When you hear about a dead kid that was pushed too far Nonetheless, anybody can change Especially you, if what I've said has boggled your brain] [Verse 2] You know it's not okay. Was it the way you were raised That makes you think it's okay to get off on their pain? Use your damn brain Ever went to school scared day in, day out, afraid of what they'll say? Wonderin if they know your real name? No, you haven't. You don't know compa**ion Your heart is black and your soul is ashen, quit f***in laughin And wipe that grin off your face. You'd never grin again If you saw him with his blade while in his head, your words are replayed This isn't a game when you're the one with emotional strain Another broken vain, just hopin they won't notice again You know what they'll say: Emo, cut your bangs Do us all a favor and cut deeper so you'll finally just go away That kid is hurt! Stop f***in makin it worse! He is on the verge only cause he is diverse! I hope you hear this verse and you realize what he's worth And try to apologize before he's submerged under dirt! But you won't! Your views don't change when you don't give a f*** You hear me but you'd rather put him down than listen up You're the demolition of compa**ion and empathy combined You're the reason fifteen kids died at Columbine (Instrumental) So what's the point if they don't listen to what I say? Well the victims need to know they aren't alone with this pain I haven't traveled down that road, but I've seen it happen all the same No sense, it makes. Seeing a kid bullied makes me shake Cause such disdain to another human being is insane Instead of doggin him, talk to him. That kid's days Are made of constant pain. Filled to the brim with hate And he didn't do a thing. There's no way this is his fate Take this s*** off his plate. You alone can reinstate Happiness in his life. Give him a clean slate You can't take everything away but it'd be great If you gave him someone to relate to. Believe it or not, you can ease the pain Give him a decent day. A reason to stay When he wants to leave this place, be his reason to delay He needs it. Hey, I know you can Stop pushin him away and take his hand [Chorus] x3
