Beem Fya Leo - Origami

Step out of the weight room, let the weight roll off my shoulders
Feel like I've been liftin' up thousand ton boulders
Bold: no Microsoft
I'm workin' hard to harden up
Like paper when it folds:
I'm origami
Don't mind me, I'm trying
Just to bulk up a little, Hulk up and out the brittle little
Bottle that I'm hidden in
The riddle that's been riddling my mind full of holes
Why I tend to fiddle with
Tendencies to tenderly tend to the temporary
Temptation to hide myself and move in the direction
Of a hiding place to hide my face?
Hermit crab: comfortable in my shell
Hiding my hide away in this hideaway
But I don't enjoy tryin' to hide this way
So I unemploy my hide's embrace
That's some food for thought until I reach that place
It's lunch time now: 10:53

These lies drive my mind
Why I'm - constantly captivated?
They bind: left blind
I'm not finished with them - 'till I've finished them off
And I won't stop, drop, and roll though the fire burns hot
Gonna sprinkle some water on it
I've wrinkled my heart and on it
I've written a message that'll be doused with the waters, honest
This auditory audit is mandatory
I pray that my mandibles may manage to deliver my testimony
If I'm honest, then honesty is an oddity
Oddly enough we oughta be
All of us, but we'd rather see
A picture painted of a portrait we believe they'd rather see
So we splatter patterns absently, frequently and sporadically
The back of me is battling the battery distributing the energy
The end of me - my enemy ending these tendencies
No friend of me
But loneliness befriended me
Nobody with me
ID: solitary

I say perspective's everything, at least that's my perspective
On the issue - I wish you
Would switch up your perception to perceive me how I do
'Cause right now I'm beaten and bruised
Believe me - I'm bleeding
For an opportunity to see things
Through new eyes - that filter lies
'Cause right now I'm caught believing
I'm inferior - my interior
Deteriorates at a rate all too familiar
It's similar to simulating terminal velocity
As I'm falling from the ceiling
Just fleeing from all the scrutiny and feelings of animosity
Pressure and tension that's rending my tendons
Bending this and stressin'
But nobody pays attention
Depression is pressin'
I feel compressed by the compositions they expect me to embody
I'm crumpled down and folded up: a piece of origami

Rendering identity, inwardly undeniably
An imperceptible spec that has been speckled by
The opinions of the people who've been prickin' it with needles
I need to re-evaluate the peepholes
Letting others see the beetles that's been battling my beating heart
I dare not wear it on my sleeve or you'd hear it tick every time I talk
I think it's time to take a walk - walk away
From this place that's been breaking up my brittle bones
I'm on display as a mannequin who's little known
For more than being silent - In solitary confinement
Of my own design 'cause I've decided to hide
As I bring that full circle: it feels infinite
I feel so tiny and helpless like a newborn infant is
And while I'm interested in an escape this is
The only way I've known, but I wanna be different
And act differently
Can I see a difference, please?
