Lyrics

[Produced by Shawn Christmas]

[Verse 1: NateWantsToBattle]
And maybe I could say it's the last time
But maybe I could say that I'm scared
Another melody of somebody's story
I'll finally admit I don't care
It's been years and I can feel the end is near
'Cause I'm burnt out and I'm mangled
Ready to wake up from this nightmare
Wake me up

[Verse 2: Cam Steady]
'Fore I close the book, I always flip to the start
I'm just tryna get a look at why I'm sick of the art
It all began with a spark
But the power, fame, dollars
And change took the charge
And made me less than its parts

[Pre-Chorus: Cam Steady]
I didn't want it this way, I used to long for this day
Yeah, sure, the money was great but sucked me into this phase
And now the dream that I was chasing seems to chain me in place
'Cause this game, it just takes and it takes, and it takes

[Chorus: NateWantsToBattle]
Will I rot away?
And if I say what's on my mind
Will they all leave me behind?
I thought I was safe
Thought that I'd see brighter days
Was I a shadow meant to fade all along?

[Verse 3: NateWantsToBattle]
Did I lose my way from pretending?
Another suit without a soul
So many years, I thought it was ending
But it opened up and swallowed me whole
No happy ending will rise and show themselves
So I gotta reach out
And write an ending, an ending for myself

[Verse 4: Cam Steady]
'Fore I close the book, I always skip to the end
See, will I ever fall in love with making music again?
Or did I give up all my passion and friends to run a factory line
That'll just replace me when I finally left? Yuh

[Pre-Chorus: Cam Steady]
Wanna know the day I knew nobody pray for me?
The day somebody told me, "This ya legacy"
This is what you'll stay to be unless you make a break
'Cause this game, it just takes and it takes, and it takes

[Bridge: NateWantsToBattle]
It's been years
There ain't nothing for me here
I was broken and alone
But now I'm home

[Chorus: NateWantsToBattle]
(Will I) Rot away?
And if I say what's on my mind
Will they all leave me behind?
I thought I was safe
Thought that I'd see brighter days
Was I a shadow meant to fade all along?

[Breakdown: NateWantsToBattle]
Will I rot away?
If I stand up and say
Say what plagues my mind?
Will they leave me?
Will you leave me behind?
