It's a Paradox

Yeah you know
Come one
Hear the flow o
Hear the flow o
Come one
Bro, yeah here we go o!

When I feel myself and I know I'm balancing on a line
I know all the pain is real it's deep inside - I can't hide
I got depression, and anxiety, bipolar

Why should I ever try to bind and hold her?
I told her

Let's slow down
Go back in time
Let's press the button - just rewind
Play back the memories of our mind
Then we can be together forever - now you're mine!

I got a little closer to myself and I
Wish I hadn't cuz of all of me wants you to die

This part of myself is so terrible
If you understand that then it's bearable

So sickening
This part of me
It's like he wants you to know all of me
If I didn't have music I might've drowned
I might have killed myself 10 different ways by now

So proud to be who I am even though
I suffer every day - and they pretend to know
It's a paradox, this play we call a life
Is it because I'm self-aware that I try to do this right?

It's a paradox
Every second that we grab
Don't take it for granted
It's all you have

It's a paradox
Every second that we grab
Don't take it for granted
Or you'll go mad

Resentful, yeah
And ain't that the truth
You tried to knock me down
For just speaking to you

Don't ever again rely on me to just be here
You won't even be able to face yourself in the mirror

It's a paradox
Every second that we grab is made to camouflage

It's a paradox
Every second that we grab is made to camouflage

Is it all a mirage
Or just a game
Will anyone ever remember my name
Or just disdain
I can't complain
I had a nice day and felt the breeze
Even though I'm weak in the knees I still stand for thee

I power through the plan and the narrative
Just to see if it's all worth it in the grand plan of it
Oh God I really can't stand this shit
I wish someone would just
Would just
Would just banish it
