Reclaiming

I need to get this out once and for all
I've been biting my tongue
Clenching my jaw
And I can't anymore
So sit down and just fucking listen
No I won't say sorry, won't censor it
This is finally it
You have no idea what it's like to be me
You have not seen what I've seen
There are people all around the world offering advice
And they say life is oh so nice
When we meditate and communicate and stop fixating on all the pain
Well, try a day in my mind
I could venture out and search the world for rays of sunshine
And then say life is oh so nice
When we meditate and communicate and stop fixating on all the pain
Well, if I had the time
I'm tired of listening to others now
They ignore all my calls
Keep closing the doors, and I won't anymore
Be told how to live through hellfire
And yes I've been praying, don't question it
This is finally it
You have no idea what it's like to be me
You have not seen what I've seen
There are people all around the world offering advice
And they say life is oh so nice
When we meditate and communicate and stop fixating on all the pain
Well, try a day in my mind
I could venture out and search the world for rays of sunshine
And then say life is oh so nice
When we meditate and communicate and stop fixating on all the pain
Well, if I had the time
Because I've been too busy just tryna deal with my own head
And past life
It's so fucking exhausting
Nobody has any fucking idea how hard this is
And I keep returning to that, and I don't know how helpful that is but
I'm reclaiming all you stole from me
My joy, my name, my identity
You no longer have a say in anything
I am the author of my destiny

There are people all around the world offering advice
And they say life is oh so nice
When we meditate and communicate and stop fixating on all the pain
Well, try a day in my mind
I could venture out and search the world for rays of sunshine
And then say life is oh so nice
When we meditate and communicate and stop fixating on all the pain
Well, if I had the time
Sorry, I spaced out
