I've had tragedies in my life and it's made me well equipped I've got people standing above me they just tryna predict Unpredictable they wonder they what I'm gonna do next And they ain't told me but I'm pretty sure they place their bets I had to use that motivation, the source never ran out And they think I can't do it so I just focus on the doubts Well I got a message for you and it's loud and it's clear So don't you ever for a second say it fell on deaf ears Cause I've been turning up the decibels absorbing all the sound Cause the clock keeps ticking till I get planted in the ground And I gotta be honest it gives me a different perspective Went to school to be a doctor now I'm Working in electric A choice that I'm satisfied, all too content And if they say that I lied I would just say get bent They thought I'd be abusive following tracks that were laid But I could see the end of the road and it just lead me to my grave I saw the tombstone and the words that were written I saw people standing around not a tear was convincing So I tried to change my attitude but they thought it wasn't real Was hyperactive kid so they decide to feed me pills And I cannot stress how many times I wished they were right But then I suited up my armor I ain't out of this fight I can still remember the looks that my teachers were shooting Pity and condescension yeah, their thoughts were polluting I've been hiding in my world, built a life, setup camp Can't rely on one sense so the other four are enhanced I was born with this disability I never volunteered So what's your excuse when you let this fall on deaf ears This was never supposed to happen Someone like me was never supposed to be in an industry like this If I can do It I promise you can chase any dream You just have to decide if you wanna chase that dream hard enough My father told me young be a fly on the wall Don't make a sound, just be patient, observant to all To many people with opinions and you're entitled to that But don't you make a baseless claim if you don't have all the facts There's an advantage to the position that find myself in Ironically no one's sees me cause it's the underdog who wins I can't imagine my life with perfect hearing all the time With these bitches and haters, I would be losing my mind But over the years with adaptation I've come adjust I Made my life's plan and then I started to construct I have selective hearing I can turn it off and on I can have a quiet morning and still be mowing my lawn Now listen closely cause I'm not saying I enjoy being deaf I'm in the game, you see I make the rules, cause I am the ref I see the flag go up, it's up to me to make the call Make the best interest decision and they seem so appalled It's like every move I make people are excited to hate But if I make it to the top they'll say "I knew you'd be great" I hold my finger in the air, yeah the tallest of digits You can try to censor me but you will never prohibit The movement I have created will never cease in momentum So when you see my messenger you know exactly who sent em' I hope you pick apart the song I know it seems kind of dense Like the hearing I got left equates two over ten I used to wish everyday that I was normal like you Then I found my identity and I'm no longer confused I find what makes you different also tends to build your up worth Don't call of the party just yet cause there is still time for the search I'm just tryna be honest I hope you see that's how I feel I'm not a crazy psychopath that has an olive at last meal I got little hearing left I will not leave it to waste And I'd you think I'm joking, take a second look at my face I'm not offended or upset honestly I could care less But if I never spoke up it would be my biggest regret Pick your battles and that's how that's how you win the war If you educate yourself then the cycle gets restored Can only blame you if you're refusing to change Forget the baggage, grab a marker, we can white out the stains I promise negative comments they will never disappear I hope you take a page from my book and let it fall on deaf ears
