lyrics

i've been
fighting
so far (they won't let me go)
hiding
they've been
silent
so far (i will take control)
hiding

ten days i've been on the road
no one coming on patrol
i feel like im on parole
should feel like im in control
i feel like i'm on the list
all black, but i'm hard to miss
all free, but i'm not convinced
i know that i co-exist
look back like "i know they're watching!"
no one's there, but i know they're plotting
i go above to know what the plot is
can't let them get me in the optics
stop myself like "is it a figment?"
got no proof, but i got commitment
see no lights looking in the distance
up all night 'cause i'm not convinced yet

i've been
fighting
so far (they won't let me go)
hiding
they've been
silent
so far (i will take control)
hiding

no one to compare a thought
i know that i'm all i got
no home and i won't get locked
no door and i won't get blocked
move quick so it's hard to aim
i want to be out the frame
in range so i'm not insane
think fast so i can't explain
ten days and i'm optimistic
i don't talk so i try to listen
i count steps and i count the distance
can't get me based on statistics
more i run, more paranoia
all these thoughts and i can't ignore them
i see signs and i can't destroy them
stop myself, but i can't avoid them

i've been
fighting
so far (they won't let me go)
hiding
they've been
silent
so far (i will take control)
hiding

so what now?
take a look around
nowhere to be found
living out of bounds
don't know where i am
i don't have a plan
looking at my hands
don't know if i can
picked this path and i cannot drop it
fear in my head and i cannot stop it
i wish i could switch the topic
but i'm looking back and i feel i've lost it
can't go further, i've done the distance
can't go back, i don't want to risk it
all my thoughts are pessimistic
maybe i've been trapped to begin with

(they might know where) i've been
(all i know is) fighting
(i've been running) so far
(i know what they're) hiding
(looking back where) they've been
(all i do is) silent
(i've been running) so far
(i don't know where they)
(i will take control)

i've been
fighting
so far (they won't let me go)
hiding
they've been
silent
so far (i will take control)
hiding

(stop myself like "is it a figment?")
i've been
(got no proof, but i got commitment)
fighting
(see no lights looking in the distance)
so far
(up all night 'cause i'm not convinced yet)
hiding
(more i run, more paranoia)
they've been
(all these thoughts and i can't ignore them)
silent
(i see signs and i can't destroy them)
so far
(stop myself, but i can't avoid them)
hiding

(i will not loose)
(yeah)
