I'm a whisper lost upon wind I'm the ember that'll burn you down I'm the water that'll drown you I'm a star that's just a black hole now I'm a terrifying danger I'm a fruit decaying on the ground I'm a swallower of anger I'm the tree that falls that makes no sound I make no sound 'Cause if I stand up, I break my bones Everybody loves to see it fall unfold Ain't nobody giving up Cause nobody gives a f*ck Stand up, and break my bones Everybody wants what they just can't hold There's nobody praying for me I am fungus in the forest I'm a lizard with a poisoned tongue I'm the child in the manger I'm the one who sacrificed his son Rust is showing on my armor I am lazing like an old man done I'm a product of my anger I'm the bullet in a loaded gun Stand up, I break my bones Everybody loves to see it fall unfold Ain't nobody giving up 'Cause nobody gives a f*ck Stand up, and break my bones Everybody wants what they just can't hold There's nobody praying for me If I stand up, I break my bones Everybody loves to see it fall unfold Ain't nobody giving up 'Cause nobody gives a f*ck Stand up, break my bones Everybody wants what they just can't hold There's nobody praying for me (There's nobody praying for me) There's nobody praying for me
