Toxic-ism

If they put me up on a pedestal
I would be falling down hard
My life would not be incredible
Hope would be looking so far
Eating my fear like a cannibal
I wouldn't know where to start
Killing the dream like Hannibal
You haven't heard the best part yet
They didn't know what's the antidote
They had the money and cars
They put their hope in the medical
And they're looking up at the stars
Starting to breathe in the chemicals
Losing their mind, Living on Mars
Cause fame didn't do what it said it would
They go to bed and feel nothing but darkness

You've given it all to have it all
Ugly scars
Fancy cars
Red Maserati
Got a big house and group of hotties
Got a new Benz and a yellow Audi
Got a big backyard where you host some parties
Ain't nobody gonna try to stop you
Till the cops come 'round when you acting naughty
Try to fight back till they drop your body
You had it all and it's gone in a flash
Gave your whole life but you lost to a flask
One second your chilling and having a laugh
Next thing you know your heads in the grass
Being famous is a rigorous task
Watch what you say and you're watching your back
You have all the money to buy a big house
But there's No point in buying if it'll be glass

The world lied from the start it was wrong
Every time tryna hide what it's done
Broken lives paying the price now they're gone
Only hope in this life is on God, (Facts)
The world lied from the start it was wrong
Every time tryna hide what it's done, (yeah)
Broken lives paying the price now they're gone, (okay)
Only hope in this life is on God

Money and the fame don't cut it, (No)
Never satisfied so run it, (Go)
You don't wanna die so gun it, (Pow)
But you could live a life worth running, (Wow)
Everything you got's
Worth nothing when you die
God's coming will you fly
Are you ready are you running
There ain't no more bluffing when its time, (woo)
Money and the fame don't cut it, (Nope)
The world is a lie and its
Killing us it promised
Pleasure but really it's
Training our feelings to
Give our whole life for a
Million dollars or
Views it's a brilliant
Plan that is reeling in
Thousands of souls and we're
Dealing with, Heaven or Hell
Is that really a question that's silly
The point of this life yeah the
Billions living on
Earth is until he sends
Jesus we will ascend

The world lied from the start it was wrong
Every time tryna hide what it's done
Broken lives paying the price now they're gone
Only hope in this life

If they put me up on a pedestal
My life would not be incredible
Eating my fear like a cannibal
Killing the dream like Hannibal
They didn't know what's the antidote
They put their hope in the medical
Starting to breathe in the chemicals
Losing their mind, Living on Mars
Cause fame didn't do what it said it would
They go to bed and feel nothing but darkness

The world lied from the start it was wrong
Every time tryna hide what it's done
Broken lives paying the price now they're gone
Only hope in this life is on God
The world lied from the start it was wrong
Every time tryna hide what it's done
Broken lives paying the price now they're gone
Only hope in this life is on God
The world lied from the start it was wrong
Every time tryna hide what it's done
Broken lives paying the price now they're gone
Only hope in this life is on God
