What I want you to do is make me proud
Show me that you mean something to this world
In which you are lost and can't fucking be found
You mean something to someone
Make yourself meant to everyone
Not in their eyes but in your own
Show the colors that are meant to be shown

Pledge allegiance to no one and rise up
Join your own battle call against those who doubt you
And disregard their opinions and grow up
Rise the fuck up. Because I'm sick of seeing you sink.

I don't mean to sound mean but you're depression is self inflicted
You're addicted to the friction that life shoves in your face
You want to feel sad when everything is wrong mixed in
With the good things that you're missing
You've dealt with shit that no one should deal with
I don't feel you but I sympathize but criticize
You can overcome but you're letting it kill you

Pledge allegiance to no one and grow up
Hear the battle call and don't think about the fall
Disregard the ones who doubt you but rise up
Grow the fuck up. I'm sick of seeing you shrink.

Look on the bright side of everything
Ever the optimist. Forever the pessimist.
Your slipping in quicksand and forever falling down
Life is an iceberg and you're a 3 hour movie
Doomed from the beginning is what your always seeing
People are here for you but you are blind
So blind that you can't find the time to see that I'm here
I'm here. She's here. We're all here. Never fear.
We're like fucking superheroes in your eyes
And life's a god damn villain

Grow the fuck up. Because I'm sick of seeing you sink.
Hold your fucking breath. I'm done seeing you drown.
Pull your fucking chute. 'Cause I can't stand watching you fall.
Listen the fuck up. I'm here for you. We all are. Don't forget it.
