Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[ Verse]
I can see the boy inside the man
I can feel the chains, that bound his hands
I can hear the silence, that defies the sound
I can smell the fear, cause it's a toxin now.
[pre chorus]
Cause they'll use you, till your soul dries out
Before they trade you in for someone else.
Don't let go, don't let go, don't let go.
[Bridge Ukrainian flute]
[Chorus]
If I could do it all again, I would.
Prevent the pain as no one ever should,
Experience what we went through
What seemed so little to them, was so big to you.
[Instrumental Bridge Ukrainian sopilka]
[Verse2]
Bad memories all stem from school
Teenage years, kids can be so cruel
And They'll never teach you to survive
Only shitty maths, what the fuck is pie?
And I'm sorry to say but life won't change
Cause everybodys running,
But they're running the same way.
[Pre chorus]
Cause they’ll use you, till your soul dries out.
Before they trade you, in for someone else.
[Chorus]
If I could do it all again I would,
Prevent the pain that no one ever should,
Experience what we went through,
What was so little to them, Was so big to you.
[Instrumental Bridge Japanese koto]
[ fast Rap fire solo]
It must of felt like a lifetime, so now I’m throwing you a lifeline
Cause I can see you in me so clearly now
Just a lonely child in a greyed-out cell.
And you can smile, on the mask that you drew yourself
And I’m so sorry that I tried to force you out
To deny the me inside, though I heard you screaming out.
Though I don’t know what the future holds
it’s got to be better than our scars so old
[ Rap solo]
..it’s got to be better than our scars so old
[Chorus epic female voices]
If I could do it all again I would,
Prevent the pain that no one ever should,
Experience what we went through,
What was so little to them, Was so big to you.
