The Ballad of G and X // Interlude

I talk to X, he tell me that he's always watching He put a hex up on my soul to keep me locked in I keep on looking at the world like I'm an optimist He says "we can't go back, there ain't no way of stopping this" I say the truth will always make it through the winter He tells me history is written by the victor, it's poison Yeahhh poison I wanna live for something, I wanna die for something He makes me cry for nothing, says that I'm a dime a dozen I wanna write the song to help you start the revolution He wanna see you next to me in public execution, poison Yeahhh poison And I watch these birds fly And I cry, why can't I? Why can't I? And I watch these birds fly And I cry, why can't I? Why can't I? I wanna be the change, I try to make my feelings vocal He's in my head, he makes me sick, he makes me antisocial I try to do my part, I vote, I sign all the petitions He tells that there ain't no way that Imma make a difference Losing my mind, I wanna find a way to keep composure He gets me high, he tell me lies, I think he's taking over I try to close my eyes, I'm haunted in my nightmares I'm quite scared, I look to the left and I find him right there It's poison Yeahhh poison And I watch these birds fly And I cry, why can't I? Why can't I? And I watch these birds fly And I cry, why can't I? Why can't I?
