I watch the world burn in front of my own eyes
No wonder people stay high, everything we're told's lies
The imbalance got some loading up a four five
To reality we’re so blind
Showtime, we’re putting on our brave face
But who’s happy living at such an insane pace
Always dwelling on the worlds fate
My train's late, Im about to break, always running still I’ve gained weight
The same place that brought me smiles as a young one, got me suicidal
Sick of lies and corruption
I should confide in my loved ones
But I’m too busy helping their minds from what the drugs done
Mumma said “You need a hug son?”
Got nowhere to run, confined to a mental dungeon
For my fam there’s no option to fail
But it’s like my fucking brain is locked in a jail
CHORUS
Caged like an animal
Failure feels like home
Pull me under, put me down
Before I lose control
VERSE 2
This state of madness, I’m romancing it
With some alcohol, tablets and cancer sticks
You see me smiling, the kid that always handles shit
But lately I’m the kid flying off the handle quick
My township was a tight fabric with light traffic
Now it’s kids getting knifed by these ice addicts
They'll kill their granny to get money for pipe packing
So putting bullets in their body is the right action
Pedophiles get protected in our system
Slow torture and death is all I give them
Don’t get me started on a crooked politician
And all these businessmen they got you hooked on their religions
And meth dealers that be praying on addiction
I’m praying you all will have to face some ammunition
They ban a weed that puts cancer in remission (Damn)
Got me thinking that this planet is a prison
BRIDGE
I keep running to the bottle and to blaze up
For my fam there’s no option to fail
But I feel like my brain is locked in a jail
