Lyrics

Verse I
In life we are born into expectation
Expected to be what we cannot be
Put on a pedestal, supposed to do
What are our predecessors couldn't get to
If we do not fulfill we've none but failed
Tormented and ripped, branded a loss
Left on an island, alone with our thoughts
Presiding over a path that is bare

Chorus
Need not be what you want
Need not be what you need
I must be what I want
To be alive
Need not see what you think
Need not be what you say
I must be what is me
To live my life

Verse II
When you are pressured to be what you can't
You rebel and reform in ways that are ***ed
You fall in a pit so deep, dying inside
Mentally melting, impossoble to hide
You seek alternatives to kill off your throes
Ultimately to find you've destroyed your soul
Life is a battle, a struggle at least
Fight the entrapment of tantalizing beasts

Final Verse
Face the facts, we can't become
What you had wanted to be
Accept the ways we want to be
Leave your worries, release

Tempo-180 bpm 16th notes
