Do you know madness like i know madness?
You run from the past and yet you want to embrace it
Embrace what was you
BUT YOU'RE NOT YOU
they'll do everything to convince you
your skin isn't your skin, your hair isn't your hair
that body you have, modified with meds and time
you've cheated the code, you've cheated god
But will your ancestors acknowledge your name?
Will your ancestors acknowledge your name?
Will your ancestors acknowledge your name?
They will mine, if i get the say
They'll know i did everything i possibly could
And gave everything i'd ever have
I gave the promise of a future, so you'd fucking respect my name
And i'm too angry to be civil, too hurt to be kind
I have a lady whom i love, i cherish beyond words
Do you think she'd still love me if she knew what you named me?
Do you think she'd stay if she knew how many times?
i seen the end so close, darkness danced on the corners of my eyes
i know my body!
PLEASE, GOD WHY?!
I KNOW MY BODY
Do you think she'd still love if my body wasn't mine
If i hated my bones and smashed my reflections
Do you honestly believe she'd love me if I wasn't me
Please why can't anyone see me!
I'm begging you please, what did i do?
JUST END THIS MADNESS!
You've killed me. You just can't see it yet.
