Rebel - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

My life has pit me against the world

I walk through life with a chip on my shoulder

With every passing day, we all fade to gray

Behind the screens, we judge ourselves as we become the same

Despite the climate, the world has only gotten colder

I'm never gonna be like you

Don't wanna hear the things you say

You're a sellout in your own right

I know you took a path you used to hate

And after all this time, I've finally come to realize

The money and the fame got a hold on you

You used to pay the price but now you only take

Everything as you know is all because society

Don't you think for a second that this is how it's supposed to be

No, someone gave us brains for a reason

So are we gonna stay the sheep

Or are we gonna finally use them?

Not everything's about just you and me

Try to break off now, can we save us somehow?

They cast the rebels out and I can't take much more

I feel like I'm alone on this big, cruel earth

Nobody's on my side, is this all that I'm worth?

It's a million of them and one of me

It's one million of them and one of me

It's a million of them and one of me

It's one million of them and one of me

So here we go

Because the bitter and the brave never fit with the idol ghosts

I can pick apart about everything that I've done wrong

And I have recognized my mistakes and all my flaws

But everybody else thinks they're perfect, tiny, little gods

They wither away with nothing to say

Living their days with nothing at all

Try to break off now, can we save us somehow?

They cast the rebels out and I can't take much more

I feel like I'm alone on this big, cruel earth

Nobody's on my side, is this all that I'm worth?

They wither away with nothing to say

They wither away with nothing to say (Try to break off now)

They wither away with nothing to say

They wither away with nothing to say (Try to break off now)

They wither away with nothing to say
