Obstinant Obedience

It cuts me quick every time I move
Keeping me standing still
All this time still something to prove
Pushing against my will
I made my stake I made a claim
What more do I have to do?
A lifetime of wanting someone to blame
And now I'm looking at you

Fit their mold to be left alone
Prove yourself and gather your wealth boy
Do what you're told the seeds have been sown
Play their game the stakes have been raised boy
Don't stick out, don't scream and don't shout
Stand in line and you'll just be just fine boy
It's way too late for shadows of doubt
Accept your fate and swallow your pride

Blood from a stone that gets me through
Thrown at a big glass house
Nothing feels right no matter what I do
A looming mass of doubt
Two steps up then two steps back
Can't seem to just let it be
Blind spots shielding me from what I lack
I should be looking at me

Fit their mold to be left alone
Prove yourself and gather your wealth boy
Do what you're told the seeds have been sown
Play their game the stakes have been raised boy
Don't stick out, don't scream and don't shout
Stand in line and you'll just be just fine boy
It's way too late for shadows of doubt
Accept your fate and swallow your pride

Carve
Carve a path just to have one last laugh

Troubled times I've got half a mind to...
Flip this goddamn script
Never happy with what I do
I'm really losing my grip
I've made my bed I'll lie in it
It's way too late to move
I'll ride it out and just do without
What am I trying to prove?

Fit their mold to be left alone
Prove yourself and gather your wealth boy
Do what you're told the seeds have been sown
Play their game the stakes have been raised boy
Don't stick out, don't scream and don't shout
Stand in line and you'll just be just fine boy
It's way too late for shadows of doubt
Accept your fate and swallow your pride
