A promise in faith is the hardest to keep
Not thinking for yourself is a lock with no key
Slippery slope turns to mob mentality
But don't ask too much or you will solemnly sleep
The stress rises up, they say what you can't be
That's why I don't listen to no one except me
The line between love and hate's often blurry
Truth kept out of reach, they are censoring me
Pass the plate, I got something to say, 'fore they take me away
1984 is present day, so long to yesterday
Mouth sewn tight, it look like tally marks
Wait for when they drop atom bombs
And we go out like dinosaurs
Do you think they'll find me in a fossil?
Plant flowers on my grave, my spirit blossoms
Seal my words in a message in a bottle
Will it reach someone or reach the ocean's bottom?
Forget about my past, 'cause it don't matter anymore
I was stuck inside a labyrinth, leaving breadcrumbs on the floor
By the end of the maze, I encountered a corridor
I went through the exit, wasn't the same person as before
I witnessed someone take me out my brand new cocoon
That's like staring down the barrel, waiting for when the shooters shoot
I start punching my walls, I punch until my bruises bruise
And the man inside the mirror don't even know who are you
Thickest thorns on the roses
I'm defenseless until you hold me
Take me from the ground and mold me
Put me where everyone won't see
Thickest thorns on the roses
I'm defenseless until you hold me
Take me from the ground, mold me
Put me where everyone won't see
And if the bus driver asks where I've been, say I'll be back soon
(I'll be back soon)
I just need to find out some things about me and make sure their true
(Make sure their true)
I'm not a product of my past, sorry, I am passed all the bullshit
Feels like the weight of my world is on my shoulders, yet I keep pushing
(Yet I keep pushing)
Thickest thorns on the roses
I'm defenseless until you hold me
Take me from the ground and mold me
Put me where everyone won't see
Thickest thorns on the roses
I'm defenseless until you hold me
Take me from the ground, mold me
Put me where everyone won't see
