I've asked you a hundred times.
You said experience always finds
the answer to my question.
You've pushed me down, I have no choice.
An angry mind, an angry voice.
I'm not scared of rejection.

I know you wish you were me.
A stupid f___ing kid that still believes.
And I wish I were you.
Too conditioned to see what's true.

What if the seeds they've sown
didn't grow up the same
They rolled the dice
but we played their game.
Like grains of sand
and a tightened grip
through their fingers
we will slip...

How come it seems to be
honors only among thieves
who never hesitate.
To hold you down forcefully
and tell you how it needs to be
but now we only suffocate.

This ain't about respect.
It's something called remorse.
I will run your race,
but I won't take your course.
You're on a sinking ship.
We need a tourniquet.
Will you try to swim
or just go down with it?

We are the dying young.
Is this what we've become?
Forced to sacrafice.
Born to live their lives.
