Mania lyrics

Shit well hey, it's just another day
Playing with these words trying to lay em out for you
I know the meaning won't stay
unless they're filthy grey and full of decay
So hold that thought, hit replay
Because I found my forte, I got so much to say
I think I'm meant to be this way
I can never make you see this grey works just fine for me
It keeps me different, distant from emotional brutality
Don't think too much of this dead end mentality
I do it on purpose, because nothing's free
As long as I have these words I'll still be happy


I'll do anything for inspiration
No time for hesitation, this isn't about presentation
Welcome to my fixation and it's no longer a dead end sensation
It's words and collaboration, it's a passion
I'm tired of the life that we fashion
Take your head out the toilet bowl, there's the floor for crashin'
I paid so much just for a K ration, the compassion's a myth
So this is what I'm left with, it beats sedation
I get that sensation from creating this creation
It comes from the core, where everyone's a little sore
I could sit and do this everynight
Stay up forever, take these ideas and write


I wanna set the world on fire
A flame for every desire
I'll share the yearning, the left over singe
Burning the doubt that made you cringe
I wanna set this world on fire


I'll make my own motivation
with or without your gratification
But I have a complication, I got a problem with your education
Feels like I can't get it on track, there's something I clearly lack
My attention is seriously slack and I think I'm going to crack
Apparently failure follows this family
And I wish I could get over it, I want to forget this shit
If this is what I want, why wouldn't I pull through?
But every single day, I doubt me in every single way
I stumble every play, I fumble and delay
I crumble in the grey and jumble what I wanna say
I don't think it comes out right, makes me feel crazy
And then you tell me it sounds tight
But fu*k, my brain's all kinds of hazey


They say it's fight or flight but honestly I see no victory in sight
I got lost in this injury, we're all alittle leery
'Cause it doesn't matter what you do, you can't change history

Everyone demands extremes but I don't want that for me
So I sit and create these streams
They run through my brain towards that gate
I open these doors too often, hoping you'll relate
Day after day you watched me go astray
With my heart on display, this is where I stay
But I wouldn't remake myself any other way
I make mistakes but that's what we do
Atleast I'm not fake, know I'm always true
Even if it's not good enough for you, I'm not sorry
I don't think the way you do


I wanna set the world on fire
A flame for every desire
I'll share the yearning, the left over singe
Burning the doubt that made you cringe
I wanna set the world on fire


This is the only thing that goes through
The only thing I want to do is translate my ideas to you
After serious consideration, through and through
I've come to the conclusion, the only thing worth dedication
Is this feeling, even with the reeling
The constant stealing of breath
Because in this moment it's life or death
Inspiration? not to them
I'll be condemned to medication for that kind of rationalization
Why do we revolve around this shit?
I don't want to be involved so my brain dissolves into the abyss
I call it sheer bliss
When I'm stuck in thought there's so much I miss
I'm caught in a haze, I think for days at a time
Maybe it's just a phase
Will I get over this craze for rhyme?


When you need something you know at first sight
And this shines pretty bright, it makes my mind ignite
It's the only thing that gives me light
But everytime it's like a bite to my brain
Insight to the fact that I'm insane
I gotta drain out my brain
go on a rampage, maybe fill up this page
Stand on stage, I'll leave my print inside your mental cage
There's always a show
something is about to blow inside my racing mind
I'm always pacing, chasing all your stares and unwanted glares
Now I'm scared 'cause I've made my mind so baring
I just pray that I'll have the daring
I'm begging this won't be ending, this dream is still pending


I wanna set the world on fire
A flame for every desire
I'll share the yearning, the left over singe
Burning the doubts that made you cringe
I wanna set the world on fire
