[Verse]
If you think about it, life is a little bit strange
Trying to do right within a society that's quite deranged
Those that are nice and polite, the wicked seem to find a reason to shame
Yet, as soon as you've had enough and stand right up, telling them off by stating that you've had enough and you'll no longer put up with their corrupt games
They somehow catch it when they reach up and take it as they spin it back around till you're found; trying to hit you on the rebound
Yet full of shame acting lame; saying, you are the one that is to fully blame
Round and round, we go on this ride of pain
Driving us all insane
[Chorus]
Every day is a constant battle with all of these twisted plots
I've been trying to get us free as I've been struggling to untie the knot
Maybe this is a sign that I need to start picking up the pace so I begin to chop
[Verse]
I gotta chop at the rot on the knot; cutting in deep with every slice that I got
At the end of the day, we're all insane in this game of life we play
World full of craze from being trapped in a maze that we trudge along in for days and days
What happened to having hope and faith
Wanting everything to be ok
Why fill your life with so much anger and hate
Why resist the idea that sometimes you might need to pray
I know you got a lot on your mind, which means that you also have a lot to say
Sometimes, we may need a little bit of help to keep all our sharks at bay
If you want to truly make a difference in the world and a name for yourself, you must develop trust in yourself and those surrounding you; before you begin to take your leap of faith
[Chorus]
Every day is a constant battle with all of these twisted plots
I've been trying to get us free as I've been struggling to untie the knot
Maybe this is a sign that I need to start picking up the pace so I begin to chop
[Verse]
Been stabbed in the back as they broke my bones
Despite all this, I'm still gonna let my light be shone as I give you the throne
Got God on my side, and I'll know that I'm never alone
Like a needle pulling thread, my life is sewn
Lately, I've been losing color;
I think that I might have to fix my tone
Intrusive thoughts that constantly ask, 'Why even bother'
As soon as they enter my mind, they get thrown
Kinda seems that we've been conditioned to lack suspicion until we're prone to condone
The diss of misinformation
We've become lost in this mess and mixed up in a mistranslation
So much disconnection
We yearn for authentic connections
Instead, we put up walls which creates all this misdirection
Technology is the root of all this mass affliction
More connected yet to our true self we're disconnected; quite perplexing
Fake impressions
So depressing
Stupid little status causing so much stressing
This issue is a huge dilemma and needs addressing
Shallow impressions
Spreading destruction and shutting out what could be a blessing
Pray to the Lord to guide my steps and give me protection
