In My House (feat. Aria Martinez)
The world has let me down
So I gotta hide out in my house
They'll kill you if you make a sound
So I gotta hide out in my house
Silence
You only speak when you're called
It's way too violent
I'm still not safe in these walls
I gotta find it
My will so I won't bring an end to it all
They say I'm defiant
Well then I'm going AWOL
Cause everyday I'm afraid to step foot outside this door
You're so quick to call the shots but won't fight in the war
Sitting comfortable in your tower you would send the poor
And then proceed to go to church like you have been there before
With your hands to the lord
Reciting verses from those scriptures that somehow you ignore
All the teachings they were preaching yet your soul is restored
You just want the reward
You walked up to the gates of heaven but hell has opened the floor.
The world has let me down
So I gotta hide out in my house
I hear them crying out
So I gotta hide out in my house
The world has let me down
So I gotta hide out in my house
They'll kill you if you make a sound
So I gotta hide out in my house
Tell me
Where do I even begin
Why would I bring a kid in a world that I'm not proud to be in
They say these problems go deeper than what you see on the skin
That's just what they say to try to justify the evil within
Ignoring all the hatred
All the systemic racists
They tortured us for ages
Then rewrote the story or just ripped out the pages
Let's bring it back to the basics
What's the real difference between you and me
Nothing, no matter what someone someday will read our eulogies
Who you to be telling me that I have nothing to fear
My visions blurry but the future is clear
Wild fires
Nature screaming that the end is so near
It's no longer safe outside
So I'm staying right here
The world has let me down
So I gotta hide out in my house
I hear them crying out
So I gotta hide out in my house
The world has let me down
So I gotta hide out in my house
They'll kill you if you make a sound
So I gotta hide out in my house
So I gotta hide out in my house
They'll kill you if you make a sound
So I gotta hide out in my house
Silence
You only speak when you're called
It's way too violent
I'm still not safe in these walls
I gotta find it
My will so I won't bring an end to it all
They say I'm defiant
Well then I'm going AWOL
Cause everyday I'm afraid to step foot outside this door
You're so quick to call the shots but won't fight in the war
Sitting comfortable in your tower you would send the poor
And then proceed to go to church like you have been there before
With your hands to the lord
Reciting verses from those scriptures that somehow you ignore
All the teachings they were preaching yet your soul is restored
You just want the reward

The world has let me down
So I gotta hide out in my house

So I gotta hide out in my house
The world has let me down
So I gotta hide out in my house

The world has let me down
So I gotta hide out in my house
They'll kill you if you make a sound
So I gotta hide out in my house
