Wherestoday - Ego

Save me from my mischief[00:20.67]For I have a second belief[00:24.50]A motive for another relief[00:30.50]Misguided without a chief[00:40.30]This world knows how to deceive[00:45.62]But I see what no one will percieve[00:49.47]A reflection I believe[00:55.49]Is it time for me to leave[01:05.78]My ego's the only thing I know[01:09.43]I gotta keep up and stay in the shadow[01:13.50]Long ago it was the risk I took[01:17.10]My life is made up for their lack of outlook[01:24.52]They've grown alongside their tease[01:29.77]They all seem to get to you with ease[01:33.66]It's no wonder your faith may decrease[01:39.58]Some even to their own decease[01:49.43]I will both die and grieve[01:54.74]Think of it like Adam and Eve[01:58.41]Trapped in one conflicted body[02:04.57]It's finally her turn to be[02:07.18]My ego is nothing but hollow[02:11.06]Should I keep up, the world is so shallow[02:14.91]All you know's the cover of the book[02:18.50]I'll now open up for everyone to look[02:22.06](Born a man)[03:04.57]It's time to break my mold and man it should be easy[03:08.34]Cause there is nothing more fragile than masculinity[03:12.26]You shed blood sweat and tears to stop whoever's like me[03:16.12]'Til we're compelled to live the same but quite literally[03:19.90]You're capable to acknowledge the minority[03:23.75]So set aside your ignorance and show some empathy[03:27.58]To be open isn't a statement made politically[03:31.43]Have you forgot the basic tenets of humanity[03:35.31]Don't you dare to compare[03:39.12]We're just like you, we just want a share[03:42.97]We're defined, we're assigned[03:46.80]Differing makes us the bane of mankind[03:50.63]Cram these lines in your mind[03:54.46]To respect us won't cost you a spine[03:58.33]We're one kind, one bloodline[04:02.14]And I wish we were all colorblind[04:09.91]Your ego will break in half also[04:13.78]The choice to grow up belongs to yourself though[04:17.78]I'll be with you when you see what's in store[04:21.36]You'll reap what you sow like the skins we all once wore
