The Slave
I'm so tired of pretending like i'm alright
Truth is, i'm not
I'm tired of living this fake little life
Forced to play along like i'm some puppet
Its all a lie
It hides my true identity
The one the world refuses to see
Inside i'm bruning with a fire that is unquenchable
Their ignorance and complacency only fuels that fire
They say the eye of the tornado is the safest place to be
Good luck getting there cuz its not easy
I used to believe i had to get into that calm
used to try to acheive that sanctity
I was wrong
I am the tornado
I am the twirling wind of fury
How many times have I wondered when I'll truly be free
How many times I've been asking myself is this me
Too many
Too many
I've decided i'm done fighting this internal war of the worlds
I lay down my sword and i bow my head
I am now a robot to this land
No longer will o have fire inside
No longer do i even try
I am now a slave to humanity
