Weight of the World

about

This time, we take it all back for good. I swear to you, I'll stand my ground.

lyrics

[VERSE 1]
Wake up, rise and grind 'till the pain is over,
Piercin' deep into my chest, got me feelin' sober,
I'm punch drunk, heart's sunk, sick of all this junk,
I'll run it back all over again until I get some closure,

Closer and closer, the memory lingers, not getting better,
'Cause I'm still hearing your screams just as the air gets thinner,
I'm gifted power but failed responsibilities,
Tested for my abilities, enemies got the best of me,

Bet it hurts to be alone through it all there,
Bigger sister not around to take the fall, yeah?
None of this I swear was ever your fault,
I regret not being there so I could hear your call,

Listen, I take the blame but nothing changes the fact,
I coulda stopped the blood from shedding when you run it like that,
But I know the pain you're feeling, I'm feeling it too,
Pack it in, we'll all go home and build back again,
I'll make it up to you,

But it goes on and on and on until it stops,

[CHORUS]
You said I should fight for the ones that stood by me,
Well I'd hate to let you down,
The weight of the world's not enough to hold me back,
I swear to you I'll stand my ground,

[VERSE 2]

There's this chick, right, Caitlyn, making me sick, right,
Representing all that's wrong with the world, right,
She's got the nerve to have my back when it was backed against the wall,
Standing tall and high and mighty over me, right,

I guess it's easy from your ivory towers,
Showered with praise, high achiever, believer in all the wrong ways,
But if you're staying, let me get your attention,
Apprehension to what you're dealing, we're feeling just on the best days,

I guess it pays to have a heart, maybe you were in the dark,
We don't always get to choose the place we come from,
Maybe I'm just going soft, or I'm sick of being lost,
Light my tunnel, got me falling for police scum,

So if you're with me then I promise we'll get outta this,
Don't be another one to make me sit and cry and reminisce,
You've got my word, cupcake, I'll be there for you,
If my feelings are true, maybe we can start something new together,

[CHORUS]

[BREAK]
You can throw me to the wolves, it won't change the truth,
Your greed has cut us down, we've all got the proof,
You can take away my fists, you'll still be outnumbered,
I'll keep protecting those in my heart from you,

You don't know what I've lost,
Now this is all I've got,
And I refuse to lose
