Walked these streets with my head to the ground
Never fit in with this shit hole town
And the age of 18, I packed my things
Eager to see what this new life brings
Born in quicksand and I pulled my way out
I never had a doubt that I would make it

There was a time in my life
When I was just a reflection
Of everyone and everything
That came across my path
Social influence bound me
Like A rat trapped on a Wheel
Spinning and spinning and spinning
Never getting anywhere
I went from a rat trapped in a cage
To the King of my own mind.
Take a look around
Tell me what you see
I see promise in anyone
From Pawn, to Knight, to Lord, to King
I became influence
I became "What never was and never could be"
This is my town
You'll never take my crown.

Wolf

I entered this world small and full of fear
A doormat to society and a product of my "peers"
Raised with privilege but surrounded by fakes
I was the one who never fit the mold
Never could escape from reality
Drowning in the thought of never breaking free
Mental torment at a young age
Trapped inside my mind like a cage
I told myself I had to get out or I would die trying
There had to be more to life then this, because In this town
Ignorance is always bliss
Where the kids all look the same and everyone's to blame
I will never go back.
I am a wolf who was raised amongst snakes
I'm out of the pit and I'm free to roam on my own

Elite

It was a clear case of who you know
Against what you have to show
I didn't have much and I knew even less
But I had a weight to get off my chest
When you're faced against a wall
It's do or die, and I refuse to take a fall
Me against them - the generic line
I hate to say it ain't a lie
Do what you can every day to get by
I kept trying to find my way
but I couldn't ever find the words to say
Sometimes to get to the top
You keep swinging and don't stop
Till the world is at your feet
And you enter the world of the elite
Climb the ladder with me
I'm finally free

Bliss

I told myself If humans could be perfect
I would find perfection in you
Between your smile, your kiss, your look, your grasp
I had a hard time walking away
With every day that passed
I kept telling myself that I'm better than this
That these games you play
Are not worth the fleeting bliss
You make no sense
But I keep trying to figure you out
And I think I'm done playing these games
I think I'm done trying to take the blame
I guess I'll never understand, and I guess I'm OK with that.
I guess I'll never hold your hand again
I guess I lose you in the end.
