Backwards |
| It feels like I only go backwards, lately |
| Every part of me says go ahead |
| I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again |
| Feels like we only go backwards darling |
| And we’ll be screamin' out no rules, no rules |
| Feel the energy we go through, I told you |
| Pump my fist like I’m supposed to, I showed you |
| My vision of the unsocial, it’s so cool |
| Look around me and you’ll see the scene, who to blame? |
| See my generation has no shame, I play the game |
| How I see it this is inside the future, this is nothin' that you’re used to |
| I refuse to play the victim, my religion is to move ya |
| Out your power position, my army head-on collision |
| Can’t harm me out of my own skin, government need assistance |
| Every time that I zone in, nothing is more convincin' |
| Than tellin' you that I won’t bend, break or fake partition |
| I can’t, this is my life design, this is me taking minds |
| This is what I live for, this is me takin' yours |
| This is more than C4, this is what happens when |
| We ready to build and destroy, I hope that you enjoy |
| It feels like I only go backwards, lately |
| Every part of me says go ahead |
| I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again |
| Feels like we only go backwards darling |
| I live my life a rebel, a vigilante, devils try to get at me |
| Pedal through this underworld, undertakers won’t catch me |
| System ain’t no system for justice if you would ask me |
| I’ll tell you everything is corrupted, don’t you walk past me |
| With the condescended look I can tell you’re pretendin' |
| Like you my friends and you just a henchman, I feel relentless |
| I feel the tension in the air thick enough to cut through it |
| Or cut you with it I’m cut from a cloth that bred a nuisance |
| Trespass on your property I am properly aimin' to go against ya democracy |
| This is me changing faces cause I can stand alone and die alone as long as I |
| got pride |
| The victory of fight is all in my eyes |
| The night is young and I can see your demise, I’m waitin' for it |
| You can’t ignore it, you live dormant, I die enormous |
| Big as the lies you tell I can tell you feel defeated |
| The truth will set you free and to me that’s the only reason, capisce? |
| It feels like I only go backwards, lately |
| Every part of me says go ahead |
| I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again |
| Feels like we only go backwards darling |
