The Real Me

Deep down you know
You know it’s like this
Someone has to stay poor
For you to get rich
Yeah deep down you know
You know how it goes
If you want control
Someone else has to let it go...

Bless my crazy heart cuz that’s the real me
Back to love cuz I did my share of hurt
I’m someone’s salvation and someone’s burden
But they know me
Staying alive, I just know it has to be earned...

You’re looking for peace
But with a loaded gun
Now the silence is roaring
And there’s a war in everyone
You’re looking for time
Cuz you just threw it away
I’m gonna stack up the hours
I’m gonna blow you away....

Now you’re looking to judge
And call it a point of view
We’re all connected
You’ll end up hurting too
I will take what’s mine
What’s making me be me
I’m gonna put on a saddle
And ride until I’m free
