Ball & Chain

[Intro]
On naît seul, on vit seul, on meurt seul
[?]
I love my ball and chain

[Verse]
It's a gift to be mistaken and a curse to know your way
So how I found myself in this turmoil, I confess I can't explain
I'm off something you ain't heard of, I can't even pronounce the name
Truth be told, you cracked a smile when you learnt a lesson in restraint
Made you love your ball and chain, it's your favourite thing to wear
What's it like as a human jailbreak, being used but self-aware?
I been used too, we had the same fate, needed help when no one was there
In the past tense, so we medicate, pretending not to care
Love is mean 'cause I act mean when I don't mean to
My cards all kiss my chest, but your intentions are more than see-through
It's hard to make an impression in this world when no one sees you
It's hard to keep your two feet on this Earth when no one needs you
A bear trap as a safe space you can always just retreat to
So I say we give 'em hell, a taste of everything we been through
An immediate call to arms to settle debts with those who judge you
A culling on a scale that deifies us through a blood feud
Like a moth to a flame you like to set alight
I've been acting on my thoughts, got more than just a dirty mind
Candy flipped with some freaks, we're tryna touch the sky
If you hate it here on Earth then we can kiss the world goodbye
Made you love your ball and chain, it's what helps you walk the line
You wanna pick my brain on a deep dive, be careful what you find
If you try, you try in vain, this life's a pointless ride to ride
You're the only reason why I stay here, thank G—, our stars aligned
