[Chorus]

Before I call it quits

I'll plead the fifth

And I know I know

Someone is listening

Especially when there's dead silence

And I know I know

Whenever I look over that cliff

It's supposed to be expected

Far from being a kid

Pictures behind my eyelids

But before I call it quits

I'll plead the fifth

And I know I know

Someone is listening

Especially when there's dead silence

And I know I know

Whenever I look over that cliff

It's supposed to be expected

Far from being a kid

Pictures behind my eyelids


[Verse 1]

These lines show me

I haven't gone blind

At least not this time

But I see the signs metaphorically

I died during my last metamorphosis

Mental state, I've been reforming it

Hatred is in abundance but I'm keeping it dormant but before it

Corrupts and consumes let me know what's important

These eyes of mine have stitched curtains

So the light I see is darkened

Meanwhile I recognize my task is

To pour fresh wine in design gIasses

When they see her fashion

She got em basking

Copying her style without asking

Within the song is an answer

That'll combat personal slander

Hope I can rest with the panthers

That stood up to hatred aimed to dismantle my breakthrough


[Chorus]

Before I call it quits

I'll plead the fifth

And I know I know

Someone is listening

Especially when there's dead silence

And I know I know

Whenever I look over that cliff

It's supposed to be expected

Far from being a kid

Pictures behind my eyelids

But before I call it quits

I'll plead the fifth

And I know I know

Someone is listening

Especially when there's dead silence

And I know I know

Whenever I look over that cliff

It's supposed to be expected

Far from being a kid

Pictures behind my eyelids


[Verse 2]

My words got strength now

I ain't overlooking how you look down

At me but more importantly us

Nah I ain't given up nor am I giving up

So quit expecting old heads on young shoulders

Last generation got adults but ain’t grown ups

I gotta fight a fight

That should've been handled that night

Admittedly I'd let it slide

But I've understood this time

There's no way I'm standing by

Like last time

Someone's gotta hear me

Spare me a second

In these last seconds

Cuz you watch me starve

While you have seconds

I rose this morning

Witnessing a warning

That these recordings

Are gonna bring something

Specifically shame and endorsement

And that my gift

Is in fine print

So if they ever go back and forth

They'll understand this


[Chorus]

Before I call it quits

I'll plead the fifth

And I know I know

Someone is listening

Especially when there's dead silence

And I know I know

Whenever I look over that cliff

It's supposed to be expected

Far from being a kid

Pictures behind my eyelids

But before I call it quits

I'll plead the fifth

And I know I know

Someone is listening

Especially when there's dead silence

And I know I know

Whenever I look over that cliff

It's supposed to be expected

Far from being a kid

Pictures behind my eyelids
