Caleb Hyles - Privilege

Tell me something
That I don't know
Show me something
To help me grow
Grow with you
Pray my instincts
Don't scrutinize
Pray my mistakes
I'll hold them high
High for you
And in the quiet of the morning, I can
Hear your whispers
But in their suffering I
Wonder where you are
And in this moment, I'm reminded of what
You came here for
If I'm the "hands and feet" then
I've failed them
Stay inside
Hide the keys and close your eyes
PRIVILEGE
Apathy, clothed in disguise
There's only so much I can learn
So much introspection
Before the answers that I seek
Become self-destruction
So comfortable
Living every day to not be miserable
But that's what I've been fed
If you're not helping then you might as well be dead
That's not who I am
And not who I'll be
I'll be slow to speak
And listen more carefully
With peace comes the chaos
And I've picked my side
I can't prevent pain
But I know that I can cry
All my life I've lived for me
And what that means, oh
And perhaps who I am is
Not for me to know
They say that words can only carry who you are for so long
I chose the silence and begin the change
