it holds us so strong we can't breath
clutching us
holding us tight
wastes what we've worked for
cuts up our hopes
makes us feel like we don't belong
takes us in
makes us his
never lets us go
we cant live without it
really we can
but it just pressures us
makes us dive right in
to what i like to call influence
