Synthetic (Live)

Uh
This song's called 'Synthetic', Yo!

Hype it up!
I'll put the guess to rest and get it off my chest
I can't take no more of this duress
Hyped up double talk from the sidewalk sloth
That are gonna be lined in chalk
Like a body of water that will soon spill down
Truth spills and walls surround
Strap your facts to the back of the calf
That they killed for your veal
'Cause I'm pushing the real

All this time I thought I knew exactly who I was
Once again I see my friend is not one I can trust
Blame myself for falling now I'm crawling to be whole
Everything you did was just a bid to play a role
That's called a front
That's called a front

Beggars and the hangers on
See them now before they're gone
Feeding from you like you're bread in the pond
Fake as the nails on your fingers
Are the clingers you call friends
Like a cameo I got played for my soul
And the role was a cold lump of coal
Too bad you still can't stay true
Now I'm through with caring

Damage in the middle leaves you damaged in the end
Stick me like the needle underneath my weary skin
Try to keep the focus while the locusts suck you in
Free me from this place that I will never face again

Feel it hanging over me every time I try to breathe
Coming from you don't know who to believe
Hyped up double talk from the sidewalk sloth
That deserve to be lined in chalk
Like a body of water, the truth spilled down
Now all of your walls surround
Too bad you still can't stay true
Now I'm all through with caring too, 'cause

All this time I thought I knew exactly who I was
Once again I see my friend is not one I can trust
Blame myself for falling now I'm crawling to be whole
Everything you did was just a bid to play a role

That's called a front
I lived a lie
No matter how I tried
Front - That's why it's called synthetic
Front - That's why it's called synthetic
Front - That's why it's called synthetic
