Lift Me Up

An' I can feel it now! It's more obvious than ever There's a problem! An' I better try to figure out If I'm willing solve 'em Or ignore 'em like a middle child! Seems like its been awhile Since I had an answer To one of life's riddles An' riddled out! An' now I'm stuck In this mental house And these four walls Are driving me crazy! An' I'm begging 'em all! To take a different route! Somebody save me! All I see is madness on the daily! It's gettin' out of hand Like droppin a baby! All the pills I keep slappin away When they try to medicate me I'm a danger to my safety! And my anger's got me Strapped in a jacket, at most times, and lately! I react to the fact That it's all here to change me With a middle finger Right to the face An' stay the same, me! Lift me up! In life the pressure so heavy That I feel I've fallen to the wayside If only I can get away from everything! Spread my wings and then fly! Lift me up! I know I wasn't born, to deserve To become a failure and die If only I can get away from everything Spread my wings an' then fly! Lift me up! Our life is unclear! Shed a heavenly tear For, Father, we still Toughin' it out down here In the midst of mankind Where money's so tight they Cuttin' throats for pennies, Nickels, and dimes Hard to walk a straight line When the road curves like a snake And most leaders are Cowards, liars, and fakes Who I shall not follow In fear I pose the question Your response, "Stay strong, son, and pick a direction" I'm not sure if I possess the Confidence to carry on We'll all be here today An' tomorrow we'll be gone It's an example of scenarios Use your time to leave a mark Stronger than a miracle felt in a soul To a believer You don't have to say it twice! To a skeptic I'm sure no proof will ever suffice To a sinner It was over before it ever began To the lost and lonely Sometimes they only need a friend Lift me up! In life, the pressure So heavy, that I feel I've fallen to the wayside! If only I can get away from everything! Spread my wings and then fly! Lift me up! I know I wasn't born to deserve To become a failure and die If only I can get away from everything Spread my wings and then fly Lift me up! You cant stop greatness! It has a way of shining through Any gimmic or fake shit! My aspirations to make it Don't make it easy for somebody Trying to do it for real! Better believe me! Fly with me! Flap your wings slow! Feel the ground beneath Your feet begin to go! Away from me I'm Excited with energy! A vision of clarity! Rise above the storm for solidarity! And your popularity Is a drop in the Bering Sea And apparently your Nothing but average I'm a dangerous package Trap you all in my daydream I'm laughing like a jackel As I spread my wings An' elevate free I know you hate me! But in the grand scheme Deep in your heart you wanna thank me! 'Cause were the same, we All lookin' for escape from Pretty much the same things! Lift me up! In life the pressure so heavy That I feel I've fallen to the wayside If only I can get away from everything! Spread my wings an' then fly! Lift me up! I know I wasn't born to Deserve to become a failure and die! If only I can get away from everything! Spread my wings an' then fly! Lift me up!
