Rise, Naianasha (Cut The Cord)

Hell wakes you up choking

And you feel so afraid

Help, is this my place?

Searching to find what to say

Am I okay?

The fear, boy, you own it

Guilty, you find an angel in your arms

She's plucking her wings

She laughs while you go replace them

But there's something in your way

The mark that you missed, caution you throw

Lost in the dark, begging to go

I'm gonna tell ya, tell all

There's a change of the guard

So you play your part

Assuming you know where to start

As pieces start coming apart

She'll stitch those wings to your heart

But it's not what you wanted

She looks deep in your eyes

She sees all your flaws

And pulls you together

Say what you want 'cause you are

Go on now, let Heaven know

The beautiful boy that you are

Call me and I'll be there

When you need your great, your great destroyer

Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry

It's you and I in a do-or-die, overboard

Now cut the cord

Remember that blank space

Where static invades

All that you succumbed

Dead mind once trapped in a cage

In the dissaving grace

As you live out all outcomes

The forever you want

Is the never you'll get when you learn

That you're gonna be so alone

Oh, when your mother and I go

But you've got to believe

You've got to be strong for her

Call me and I'll be there

When you need your great, your great destroyer

Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry

It's you and I in a do-or-die, overboard

Now cut the cord

Silence your tongue

Divide your lives

And gift us all your love

Your day has come

Open your mind

And do what must be done

Call me and I'll be there

I'll be your great, your great destroyer

Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry

It's you and I, do-or-die

Call me and I'll be there

When you need your great, your great destroyer

Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry

It's you and I in a do-or-die, overboard

Now cut the cord

Over and out there

You'll meet your great (I'm your great destroyer)

Your great destroyer (I'm your great destroyer)

Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry

It's you and I in a do-or-die

Overboard, now cut the cord

Cut the cord

Cut the cord

Cut the cord
