Lyrics

Cynical, critical, pitiful entity

Remedy? Difficult, pinnacle, is celebrity?

Never let it be, better see integrity

Digital attention ain't blessing me, that's fictional equity

This imbecile is testing things with visible discrepancies

Simply quest for streams and end up clinically depressed in weeks

The principle of reckoning ain't biblically protecting me

Directing myself up a creek to empty seas of unbelief

Drifting from the empty beach, I'll reach the void eventually

You said

The ones I love will think I'm working for the enemy

He said

I have to give up father, mother, comfort, everything

You say

I don't really have to give this life my everything

I guess that's just the way that it works, huh

Living life with God is really painful and hurts, huh

Live my lie facade until I lay in the dirt, huh

That would be the easy way to cope with my worth, huh

But keeping secrets weakens your armor and leads to dishonor

You're bleeding and leaking need a new doctor

You plead with the father to keep the evil demons up off you

Wanna please him but it's seeming like you're feeding your darker

Parts of your heart started seeking a dollar and speaking much softer

Bout Jesus, man, you're weak and freakin' weep and you holler

Steeped in fatigue when you need to be stronger and leaping much farther

And preach and lead 'em to honor

You see the disorder?

I can't fix the damage, man what the hell do you want from me

I feel alone on this planet and nothing seems to comfort me

It's taking all my strength not to isolate from all company

If I tell my struggles, I'm sure that they just gon' come for me

As if I don't come at myself

Thought you would help with my health

But that's not what I felt

You grabbed the belt, leaving welts on my soul and myself

Looks like the melt on my pride's gonna require help

You're immature, life is hard

Really, you should be grateful

You've probably got a sin problem and that's why you're unstable

You've got everything you need, a house, friends, fam

It's shameful, you've got a good life, man

This isn't actually painful

Then tell me why I woke up at three for no reason

Soaking in the tub cause it felt like I wasn't breathing

Let the shower head rain on my face while I was weeping

I cried in there for hours till left for work

My mind weakened to the point where I can barely finish a task

My raisin looking hands all shriveled up from the bath

Tried to vacuum doorways but ended up on the mats

But I couldn't fall asleep cause of the panic attacks

I would wake up in the morning and wish I hadn't

I dreaded having to go through another day on this planet

Still hard for me to be thankful

I have breath in my lungs to see that God has made a new day

And accept it as love

Now I'm a lot more empathetic

Got a lot more grace for people that I would've called pathetic

Learning to let go of the stoicism aesthetic

Used to look down on vocalized pain and I regret it

I now know they've gone through some things way more painful than me

And I know what it feels like to do anything for relief

You did a couple things that I bet you're afraid to speak

You're not fully recovered, Jay, you don't really believe

Nah, I'm no longer afraid of truth

No longer afraid of failure

No longer afraid of you

No longer afraid of smiling

No longer afraid of change

No longer afraid of dying

No longer afraid of pain

I tell everyone what I've done

I used lust to try to console me

Porn became a habit and soon I let it control me

To the point where I was practically watching it every morning

Start my day consuming evil, can't defeat demons, you're courting

I'd pop a pill for sleep, but still I lay there awake

Screaming at the ceiling for God to give me a break

Feeling I was defeated, but Jesus had made a way

Gave Him my heart completely and we started breaking the chains

Maybe you'll be honest about your mistakes

Still saving your face

You sacrificed your ego, but that ain't all that it takes

You're not brave enough to say what you think about others

Your depression is your fault for being bitter towards your brothers

Okay, fine, I'll speak out my mind

And then maybe after I get this bitterness out my system, I'll be gravy

A couple people think it's my own ambitions and craving

But I know without a doubt it's a gift that our God gave me

They're just arrogant hypocrites full of pride

I realize our divide is really from when I lied

But since I lied, and didn't die to myself at the time

Every little thing that you did has been justified

You know God better than me, huh, you know him the best

If he really hated art, seems like something he would address

No, Jason, it's all nuance, I'll show you what he said

He said not to look like the world even by how you dress

Looks like you better change your vest than pricks

Your massive stack of lumber doesn't best my stick

Look into my eyes before you test my lip

Hear pupils, listen to my chest right quick

Don't tell me what to do, don't tell me what's the truth

Why is the Holy Spirit telling me the opposite of you

That don't make no sense, maybe all of this is fake

If I don't speak in tongues, the spirit we listen to ain't the same

Criticize me for struggling with my faith

You don't take life seriously enough to stare at it right in the face

It's difficult to have perception of both sides

Ask honest questions, you'll get answers you don't like

Is it fake if I take pride in my humility?

Am I fake if I take pride in my humility?

I get a high from doing good for others

So does doing good for others just benefit life's utility?

Or do you just do good for others so you're in their good graces

To grow your social credit and give you a foot placement

Just to cope when you say you're so misunderstood, anxious

Here's an antidepressant, you simply just shouldn't take it

You face it, you basically fake your anguish

Displacing your pain and you rage at Jason

Ashamed of your faith so your taste is vacant

Ain't salt no more, you're a wasted agent

Shut up, Conch, I ain't talking to you no more

We've been through this before, won't let you drag me back to the floor

Endorsed my own demise when I let you open the door

To circular introspection, so now you're getting ignored

I hated my life, but I had hope

Satan had grabbed a hold of my throat, but I had hope

Ran till I was deserted, and I completely deserved it

And found myself in a literal hell, but I had hope

That hope was in Jesus, so I know I really believe

He pulled me out of Sheol, I know I really believe

Found pain as the bedrock of reality

But what's more real overpowered it, so now I really believe

I gotta stop seeing you as an obstacle

Cause you're valuable, as long as you're not pathological

Am I gon' kill you, or you gon' kill me? Let's roll the dice

Maybe I'll find something better for you than sacrifice
