[Intro]
Do you feel lost in the world?
Do you feel like everything is crashing down upon you?
In moments like these, it's easy for anxiety to dictate your life
But just make sure you stay calm, breathe and don't panic
[Chorus]
Yeah, I got it tatted on my wrist so I know it in my soul
I don't wanna be a burden so I do this shit alone
Swear the music only thing I got when I be feeling low
I'm just tryna drown the noise demons calling from below
Yeah, I been to hell and back and it really took a toll
And now the mirror shows a face but it ain't the one I know
And all these ghosts in my past always try to take control
Yeah I know they really wanna see me fall but I won't fold
So I take my time, gotta brush it off my shoulders
I won't let my demons try to pull me lower
All my life felt the reaper getting closer
Pay no mind, I'll be better in October
[Verse]
Yeah, I feel alive in the dark when I'm creeping
When I drop got these motherfuckers feasting
I don't gotta climb I just let the music seep in
For the broken souls they the only ones I'm speaking
Look at society, is it really worth saving?
Look what they took from me why the fuck are we just waiting
All the time we waste just to end up in a grave
I don't know the answer but I hate it
I didn't sell my soul, now they throwing me shade
But there's more to life than having people shouting your name
I make the music for the broken ones that weren't chosen
Set the world on fire, think it's time to bring the locusts
[Bridge]
New anthems for the lonely
New problems weighing on me
Don't panic when life gets cold
They wanna see you fall but you'll make it on your own
[Chorus]
I got it tatted on my wrist so I know it in my soul
I don't wanna be a burden so I do this shit alone
Swear the music the only thing I got when I be feeling low
I just tryna drown the noise demons calling from below
Yeah, I been to hell and back and it really took a toll
And now the mirror shows the face but it ain't the one I know
And all these ghosts in my past always try to take control
Yeah I know they really wanna see me fall but I won't fold
So I take my time, gotta brush it off my shoulders
I won't let my demons try to pull me lower
All my life felt the reaper getting closer
Pay no mind, I'll be better in October
