[Verse 1]

My world revolves around problems I can't solve

Because my heart has been carved into a ball

They always drop, it shatters so soft

Blood in my palm

I'm absolved as I crawl to a light

That won't burn me if it gets too bright

Yeshua or Christ

Teach me right

I can't pick sides

Look me in my eyes

And tell me no lies

That come from a place where many die

I want my life to imply

That forever and always I hereby

To speak words only from the underground sky

So I don’t subside and become a far cry

Of my predecessors

Therefore I deliver in quick succession

Are you caught on the wrong objective

I got emotional indigestion

I feel talking it out is ineffective

I lost connection with a good reception

But I can never hold a conversation

Why am I defiant to be reliant


[Chorus]

What must I do besides

Express the truth

If I don’t what else do I do

I learned to express the truth

What must I do besides

Express the truth

If I don’t what else do I do

I learned to express the truth


[Verse 2]

Trusting is like crossing an uneasy bridge

And it fails I will reach new discouragement

The type that would make me abandon projects

I put 3 years of experience in

My malnourishment

Forces an expected flourishment

Trying to convey it is embarrassing

There's a recklessness in my carefulness

That they'll never see

2020 was a blur to me

I cry blood, no tears from me

Your honesty plays hide and seek

In a distracting routine like it's tryna intervene

My right to speak

So I don't inconvene this pyramid scheme

That's been indoctrinating people into sheep

I hope the words I scribble

Can cause a ripple that cripples

The world that accepts sacrificial means

As some moral consequence but it's actually extreme

That's not how I'll be redeemed

There's a disturbing theme but who's listening


[Chorus]

What must I do besides

Express the truth

If I don’t what else do I do

I learned to express the truth

What must I do besides

Express the truth

If I don’t what else do I do

I learned to express the truth


[Verse 3]

Change is the catalyst to evolution

You know they'll never televise our revolution

So I must maneuver with the best solution

Too many of us act like we are clueless

And I can't take no more

Your lies only bore me

How you live a rotten core

Wait, I read this kind of story before

If you hear me I got a lot of questions

Even if I don't deserve the answer

I still gotta ask them

I don't mean to be disrespectful

I know, I know

I know, I know

I know, I know

I know, I know

I'm so alone, I'm so alone

I can't go home if the truth is gone
