do or die, i guess this one explores the depiction of ego and self-worth. based on a time in my life where i felt stuck, even trapped. trapped by my own mind, my own expectations, the expectations that others had of me. finding myself stuck within the box that society wishes to keep us confined to. a vicious cycle. existing. but there is so much more to life than that 🖤
Lyrics
Explain yourself
What are you doing here
Defend yourself
There's no time to cry
She howls at the moon
She's thirsty for blood
You better run, you better hide
I know where to find you
I'm do or die
I know you like that
Stay where you're safe
Outside the box is not for
The faint-hearted
But your ego's bright
It dims the light of your soul
Do what you're told
Sit back and do what you're told
Free yourself, you've got wings to fly
Redeem yourself
Now is your chance
It's do or die
Do or die
Are you do or die, yeah
I'll wait for you
Cos I know
And you know it too
Yeah you know it too
But we won't get into that right now
Scares us all, she's on my shoulder too
Self-doubt and ridicule
We're our own worst enemy
I'm lost for words
Searching for something
That doesn't exist
And I'll never reach
So what's the point
It's a waste of time
It's a waste of time, yeah
I'm falling apart
At the feet of this higher power
And I can't seem to grasp the concept
That we have the power
And it's in our hands
But these hands don't feel like mine
My memories fade to sand
And I'm losing my mind
All over again
It's a vicious cycle
And I'm talking to myself again
Cos none of you ever listen
And I'm sick of repeating
The same s*** over again
But soon you'll wake up
And realize it's all over
When you're stone-cold sober
Full of your own lies
And you'll ask yourself
The same questions I asked myself
But it's too late
And there's nothing to do but die
Do or die
It's do or die
Do or die
Do or die
Do or die
It's do or die
Do or die
Do or diemore
