Absence of Control
Rebellion in Melody: Unveiling the Struggle Within
Lyrics
I swore I'd tear this city down
I vowed to dismantle this city
Brick by brick
Methodically, one piece at a time
I still wear the scars across my back
I still carry the wounds from your betrayal on my back
From the knife you slipped
The injury you inflicted with a hidden knife
I hung the traitors by their necks
I punished those who betrayed me severely
I built this dream
I constructed this ambitious vision
On blood and sweat
Through sacrifice and hard work
I stood to face the jury of wolves
I confronted the judgment of ruthless adversaries
And now I've spent a lifetime
Now I find myself living in constant decline
Living as a sinking ship
A metaphorical sinking ship represents my life
I only ever lifted spirits
I only brought joy to others when I sought solace in intoxication
When I went to take a sip
The pursuit of temporary relief through alcohol
Now the hounds have come to get me
Adversaries are now seeking retribution
I'm still shipwrecked where you left me
I remain stranded in a state of ruin where you abandoned me
If I don't make it
If I don't survive this ordeal
Then don't forget me
Ask that you remember me
Don't forget the heart I sold
Do not forget the core of my being that I surrendered
I face this struggle every day
I confront this internal battle every day
It's year 8 now
A significant period of time has passed, marking the struggle
I'm not afraid
I face the challenges without fear
I'm facing facts this life is all I know
Realizing that this difficult life is my only reality
And we revel in the absence of control
We find joy in the absence of external influence or restraint
