Step back from that cliff
And inch towards a blade
Or shut your eyes
Take a risk
And have a little faith
No good choices
Pick your poison
Painful truth or awkward lie
Bloody screams
Inside voices
Both are pointless
They can't hear you cry
Tell me there's an obstacle
Don't say that its impossible
To accomplish the improbable
Love is always optional
Evolution is unstoppable
And flourishes in the adverse
To soar you must fall first
And sometimes that hurts
What's the worst that can happen
If we flirt with disaster
Natural instinct
Primal passion
Flock together
Pain and laughter
Can't we move little faster
Skip the setup and the chatter
Let's descend into madness
Chance some skin then heal up after
Bad actors, cash grabbers, and mad hatters
Sad bastards, bag snatchers, and back stabbers
Flags tatter, glass shatters, then rats scatter
Now look who's stuck sweeping up
Preaching that facts matter

Tried to cry for help
But couldn't get the words out
Fighting for a breath
Somebody tell them that it hurts now
We saw them put their hands up
Before we heard the gunshots
They knew it was the wrong house
But no one knocked
Tried to beg for help
But couldn't push the words out
Can you police the cops
Will you tell them that it hurts now
They ran for their lives
And then we heard the gunshots
More names for the headlines
But no one's shocked

Rumors bouncing down alleys
Lies rolling in the wind
We got some game to spit
A few rules to bend
They have stories to embellish
False narratives to spin
When it blows up in our faces
We'll just do it all again
They can't stand consequence
But love stirring trouble
Misplay their cards
Then blame the fucking shuffle
Spend up every last penny
And still claim its just a hustle
While we choke back the tears
And act like the pain is subtle
There's a devil in the detail
We got really good at finding
Some people push buttons
We broke it down to a science
That patented concoction
Of codependence and defiance
The brightest stars
Are the ones that are dying
Now there's a metaphor there
I'm just too high to find it
Its not that I don't care
Sometimes I miss the silence
The pretty lights look better from afar
Pull the frame in tight
And stay right where you are

Tried to cry for help
But couldn't get the words out
Fighting for a breath
Somebody tell them that it hurts now
We saw them put their hands up
Before we heard the gunshots
They knew it was the wrong house
But no one knocked
Tried to beg for help
But couldn't push the words out
Can you police the cops
Will you tell them that it hurts now
They ran for their lives
And then we heard the gunshots
More names for the headlines
But no one's shocked

I'm not the type of person
That will turn the other cheek
I'm the one that wants to get the job done
By any means
I'm better at throwing shit
Someone else can give a speech
Its an ethos
Not a motto
No justice
No peace
Defund the police
Destigmatize the poor
How can you declare a riot
When you've incited a war
If you didn't want violence
The f*ck you fighting us for
Could this be a spring shower
Or the eye of the storm
We don't really have a preference
Only asking for leverage
Trying to gain a point of reference
Off which to base your deceptions
We won't solve the world's problems
We can ask the right questions
We won't shut our fucking mouths
So you know we'll spread a message
Unprecedented times
Call for unconventional methods
Brought some soup for that ass
Y'all looking hungry I reckon
Yeah, we can't tame a beast
But we can kill it with no weapons
Out here fighting for a future
By handing out history lessons

Tried to cry for help
But couldn't get the words out
Fighting for a breath
Somebody tell them that it hurts now
We saw them put their hands up
Before we heard the gunshots
They knew it was the wrong house
But no one knocked
Tried to beg for help
But couldn't push the words out
Can you police the cops
Will you tell them that it hurts now
They ran for their lives
And then we heard the gunshots
More names for the headlines
But no one's shocked
