Bring on your beasts and demons now
I'll fight them head on and you know I'll never flee
Behemoths weak and powerless
I think it's high time that your devils all feared me
I'm indestructible now
And they can't bring me down
Though I know they'll try their best
Bring on the twists and the turns
And I will show you how
I keep on movin ahead
There's never time for rest
If you can't pass the test
You'll end up frozen when your in the hornet's nest
But if you take a breath
To see what happens next
You'll find a power that can put your fears to death
Can't think 'bout what I used to be
It's in the past and we don't have a time machine
Can't tell what the future will be
Don't have a third eye so why even try to see
One thing that's been revealed to me
You don't need jelly when it just comes naturally

Grab my hand and I'll be your guide
I'll show you what you need to hit your stride
Once you find it then you'll notice that you'll come alive
There'll be nothing that you think you can't survive
We've all got it, just takes courage to jump on that ride
Just remember that the bumps never subside
With my head up in the clouds
Sometimes I feel like a clown
I wish I could come down
I need someone to put me on the ground
And although I must admit
That I've grown so fond of it
I don't think I can quit
There's nothing like it- constantly in bliss
Now can't ya see what it's done for me
I think we both agree, we won't go back so throw away that key
At the trail's end now it's time for us to say goodbye
Where you're going there's no need to supervise
Plus its not like I could give you any more advice
Your truth's out there so go find your paradise

I never could make up my mind baby
About the things that you do
But somehow that spark is burnin' lately
My mind's been stuck up like glue
I just need to relax and then maybe
I can really push through
All you gotta do is
Drop my heart
Give it up
You've stolen it now round-the-clock
I can't stop
Thinking about you
I've never been this bad before I can't believe it's true
The second you walk through that door It's like I caught the flu
Day in and day out it amazes me how
You keep me up on my toes
It's crazy to me how seeing your face every day
Just keeps away all my woes
My serotonin receptors persevering
I know that they'll never slow
Let free my heart and soul
So I can become whole again
Let me escape my head
So I can own my thoughts instead

I never wanna run away so I slow down
I'm not gonna make it back today
How could I lose it all for you
I'm not making sense
But that's what treasure does when you open that chest
I got a little bit corrupt
So enough's enough
Because this golds a crutch
Never shoulda took it all
I let the greed get the best of me
So let's brawl
You've run off with our riches
Don't you have enough by now
Habitat's torn to pieces
We'll fight back to take what's ours
All that greed, you've got weakness
Take the bait and then you'll fall
Once you find out our secret
There's no way you won't back down
Thought you got away with it
Not a chance, we'll take it all
Time to strike, we won't miss it
Stingers pierce through your safeguard
Doc zig zag the stitches
I'm in the middle of a battle
Over rags and riches
Gotta get back to my side
Before the score is double digits
Why won't you listen to the fact that
I started a war that I cannot call off
Part of me is torn but I seem to hold on
Got a new goal and it's world control
I might as well be Robin hood
I'm giving all my stolen gold to the greater good

Hey
I've been losing control
Flying off of roads
Wonder whether I should sink, swim, or just float
Cause when hopes turn to dreams
It makes reality seems
A little bit closer than its supposed to be
I pick locks with my golden key
While all the clocks tick tock slowly
You've got me begging on my knees for you to show me
How to fix my idiosyncrasies to be complete
Cause when the sun sets
Yeah all my pain and regrets
They get swallowed by the sea
Man I'm finally free
I'm unlocking all the chests
Putting personality to the test
Yeah I guess that my personal debts
Are erased and replaced
With the faces of friends
Every day is the weekend
All week I'm riding those waves
No tides can pull me away
I just keep counting the days
'Til my soul is saved
Six months later
Riding every elevator
To the skyscrapers top
Is it ever gonna stop
Got me waiting for the drop
Like tower of terror
The hour of error was caught and surrendered I never thought
I could end the negativity
And make a version of me
That's worth it and sees
My purpose and feeds
The earth with the seeds
To give birth to the trees
That protected me from storms
Walking in from the sea
Bitch please
Positivity is what gleams
Through the cracks in the leaves
And attacks bad thoughts
Turning every bad day into a masterpiece
I meditate beneath the trees
Like a master of peace

This piece of paper's looking way too empty now
This pen I'm holdin's full of ink why can't it just be
Flowing from my head to hand to
Another place where it might be way more useful, well
I guess it's only cause I can't vocalize what I'm trying to spell
And
Tryin' to get my thoughts in line I
Find I've got something I can't
Really even reconcile
They wouldn't be the perfect pile
I know I've got some sides that seem insurmountable
But it turns out I can't lie
For you I'll beat them
And I gotta tell you I don't wanna be
Just another guy you couldn't specify out of a crowd of people
And now looking in your eyes
I can see our future burning bright
Don't ever leave my side
You're my sequel
The thing I'm stumped on well it makes no sense so how
Am I supposed to write on if it's bothering me
But writing is the key to move on
So I'll keep jotting notes whenever they come to stress
And when it happens well I'll
Know it but it seems we're stuck in the spell
I'm

Let's start it again
Good feelings that go to dread
A storm of emotions swirling right inside your head
And what can you do
Right or wrong what's tomorrow's news
Has it ever been this good before
Could this battle maybe win the war
Are you everything I'm looking for well
I'm sick all the time I'm uncertain
It's showtime so let's draw that curtain
And while you're looking in my eyes
You'll notice I've got no disguise
You let me be myself and I can't make a smoke screen any more
With every word I hear you say
It takes me more out of the grey
I never thought that I'd be with someone that makes me feel so great
There's no time to lose
This clock doesn't have a snooze
If only you had a single second for a breath
Control your own mind
If you're nervous you'll end up blind
Wish I had some more time to prepare
Nevermind I think I shouldn't care
If my feelings end up layed out bare well...
And now the curtain's drawn
There's only one thing I knew
That the seed that started out so small
Was gonna end up so huge
You're everything I could ever want
So please tell me I am to cause
I could love you
If you want to
Give me something to hold on to

Tank's running nearly on empty, chests barren
Man I could really use a win
They're sitting pretty their funds never run thin
I Bet they wouldn't notice it
No sense to stop at just dimes I'll make their fortune all mine
My Plan's airtight, won't even know what they're hit by
My scheme's in tip-top shape
Full guarantee for my escape
Try and catch me
Always three steps in front of you
Need I say You're
Not getting back anything I stole
Once I've grabbed it
Nothin' escapes my gravity
Can't detain me
I'll get away with the pot of gold
Job's finished it's time for low-laying
My looted prize fit for a king
My heist went perfect but ambition's closing in
How can I put this madness to an end
The trove has tainted my mind, can't keep my urges in line
No pile's too high, I'm stealing from them one final time
I've been freed now
No one will get the best of me
Do your worst I'm
Not giving up the key that I've found

Bad News

I've got a bit of bad news
You've only two paths to choose
Tryin' to bushwhack just leads to your doom
If you merge out from your lane
You're met with anger and pain
The slightest movement engulfs you in flame
It's time I lend you a hand
But you might not wanna stand
What I'm proposing, it won't be that grand
How in the hell can you fix a problem
When the response is just to fight and argue
Why can't you see that you should all be on the same team
This division will be your downfall
If you can't see it then I will be sure to
Bring in a threat that'll urge you all to
All band together or face the final extreme
Will it end like the ones before you
One massive sickness will do
Ignite the atmosphere too
You'll never make it if you remain split in two
All polarized arguments
Will just lead you to your deaths
So figure it out there's not too much time left
There's not too much time to think
You've pushed it over the brink
Can't fight a tumor that grows in a blink
Put other issues aside
Don't try to test if I lied
Find out what happens if you still divide
There's steps you'll have to complete
So better pick up those feet
Beating this mess would be oh so sweet
It's just a bit of bad news
I don't care who's fault is whose
Gotta ride it out and hold
Steadfast like glue

How can I breathe out here without any atmosphere
I always think I'm gonna suffocate
Leaving the planet in a rush without any plan
Is this the end to my great escape
Should I have listened to the cynics and pessimists
Is there a reason no one else is here
Breaking these walls and all I see are more barriers
Could it be that I've made some mistake
No way I miscalculated it
When it comes down to the checkmate
Just take a breath and make your own fate
You'd think I would know by now
How to read the stars and find out
Where I've come from, where I'm at and where I'm headed to
But you'll find out all too soon
Even when you think that I'm doomed
I can't even bring myself to see the waning moon
And you can't be always right
So while waiting on the daylight
Turns out Constellations shine at night
Moving one step at a time makes it easier
Can't always travel using leaps and bounds
Stuck in the rhythm am I sitting here endlessly
In my complacency can I drown
Will getting older let me see things with certainty
I'm trying not to get lost in the sound
Are all the assets that I've got just commodities
What should I do when my thoughts break down
When your worries going solar
Like a massive supernova
Just blow them up, don't start them over
