Make Believe

Told my momma lock the doors I'll be home late
Too busy mopping up the floors for my own sake
Wait right? Sike I'm working nights, paid at low rates
Sold my soul for what? I've come to terms that I've got no fate
Granted I've got no faith
It's sad, but ain't too bad
Look around at what I have
It's a blessing so I have to get back into the lab
Put all the bullshit in the past
Switch my habits, I'm an addict for the highs that won't last
When I crash, I feel like there ain't no point to stay attached
I dispatch, then discard of what I've grasped, into the trash
Runaway from this voice that keeps telling me my choice
But from this day on I take a breath and rejoice in the moment
Don't over think it wait and see
Let the dreamers stay dreaming even if it's make believe
Whose to say we can't be what we've dreamt one day to be
They deceive us with the fake fraud and pieces they perceive
Yes indeed, they make it harder to succeed
But part of me believes
When it's darker we can see
Through the steep hill
Just a little farther til' we're free
Let em' harbour up the greed
We get smarter than we seem
But above it all
They love it when our backs against the wall
Laughing when we fall
Yeah I fell, but I won't stay down for long
I went through hell but now it's paid out in songs
It's raining now but I can't sit and wait out the storm
Chase what could be greatness
Time to break out I'm gone

And I don't got to stress my mind
I stay high
Through the rain or shine I'm one with all the grey skies
Although this change is dawning now through the grape vine
Well find a way
Waiting for me to guide the way

Let everything fall into place and embrace this new phase
It's safe to say that we've escaped this cage
Now let's change the page
Playing this game of fate
My faith came late, now I'm face to face
But God's giving me just one more race to take
Great, thanks, my slate goes blank and the pain's erased
Cut to the chase, still there's one more place to face
Deep inside find the rage and erase the trace
I've overcame it but it lingers despite
Don't overthink, you've got the world in your fingertips
Alright, get it right
These wrongs fight
But I write these songs
Life don't last so I don't sleep in a week, up all night
So nice to see the difference despite this long fight
I like to stay concise but I might get off sight
Yikes, you rolled the dice
Might just roll it twice
Christ, here's some advice
Don't strike the golden lights
Enticed, they like to swipe so you might want to hold it tight
Don't invite this anti-christ because the hype comes at a price
It ignites these demons
Hike to new heights and take flight
Suffice defence might just excise this new type
So lets fight, shoot them down with strife
But don't recite
This sight is nothing like you've seen, it deems right
Lets unite and bring a whole new side of thinking to the crowd
Be proud look at us now
But we vowed to keep it down to earth
Feet on the ground, it's worth for what's been found
Raise toast, cheering loud for the hope that's here now
Wow, I never thought I'd live to see it
Rub my eyes one more time but still I don't believe it
Set the bar up top, yeah my goals I couldn't reach em
But I never stopped until I was sold its completed, now

I don't got to stress my mind
I stay high
Through the rain or shine I'm one with all the grey skies
Although this change is dawning now through the grape vine
Well find a way
Waiting for me to guide the way
