The Weight
Life encased in chaos sinking in the depths of my despair
Lost among the wreckage wondering do I even care
My teeth clenched down tight igniting the fire within
Anger takes ahold of me seems I've stepped in shit again!
Through the trials and tragedies we press on
In the face of adversity
With steadfast defiance We shall prevail
We stay strong
Through the trials and tragedies we press on
In the face of adversity
With steadfast defiance We shall prevail
We stay strong
The Weight
The Weight
This Weight is pulling me down
Trying to break me once again
This state is wearing me out
The water's rising I'm trapped beneath the surface
I'm trapped I'm trapped
I can't get out I've lost myself
The pressure grabs like a heart attack
The pressure grabs and I can't react
I'm trapped I can't get out
Because I'm numb to my despair
The Weight will forge me like a diamond
Anchored by the weight of past mistakes a cruel embrace
Amidst the ruins of regret my mind breaks down to this empty place
Holding on and trying hard not to break down and lose my mind
Pissed off and full of rage the smoke works every time
Through the trials and tragedies we press on
In the face of adversity
With steadfast defiance We shall prevail
We stay strong
Through the trials and tragedies we press on
In the face of adversity
With steadfast defiance We shall prevail
We stay strong
The Weight
The Weight
This Weight is pulling me down
Trying to break me once again
This state is wearing me out
The water's rising I'm trapped beneath
THE SURFACE!!!!!!
I'm trapped
Pressure grips like a heart attack
Lost among the wreckage wondering do I even care
My teeth clenched down tight igniting the fire within
Anger takes ahold of me seems I've stepped in shit again!
Through the trials and tragedies we press on
In the face of adversity
With steadfast defiance We shall prevail
We stay strong
Through the trials and tragedies we press on
In the face of adversity
With steadfast defiance We shall prevail
We stay strong
The Weight
The Weight
This Weight is pulling me down
Trying to break me once again
This state is wearing me out
The water's rising I'm trapped beneath the surface
I'm trapped I'm trapped
I can't get out I've lost myself
The pressure grabs like a heart attack
The pressure grabs and I can't react
I'm trapped I can't get out
Because I'm numb to my despair
The Weight will forge me like a diamond
Anchored by the weight of past mistakes a cruel embrace
Amidst the ruins of regret my mind breaks down to this empty place
Holding on and trying hard not to break down and lose my mind
Pissed off and full of rage the smoke works every time
Through the trials and tragedies we press on
In the face of adversity
With steadfast defiance We shall prevail
We stay strong
Through the trials and tragedies we press on
In the face of adversity
With steadfast defiance We shall prevail
We stay strong
The Weight
The Weight
This Weight is pulling me down
Trying to break me once again
This state is wearing me out
The water's rising I'm trapped beneath
THE SURFACE!!!!!!
I'm trapped
Pressure grips like a heart attack
