Verse 1

Hoping these inventions fit within dimension
My ideas transcended into life from a vision
I can see my soul vivid
Fitting in my goals isnt
Hard to stop pretending
Playing roles is the price of living
Roll the dice different
Run em out of home like a poltergeist trippen
Yea I’m on slight mission
Bite vicious like a Lion
Don’t listen I been Lieing
I been mimicking I’m tired on an annual
Gripping on the manual
God with us like Emanuel
Lost like Hugo or the Ear on vangogh
Lord knows I got that Bruh Man from the fifth flow
Raid your refrigerator, leave out the window
I be pretending like it’s not a big deal
Commit to the role and it might become real
But these roles not me
Society will make you be a robot with no ID

Bridge

He lives a secret life
Pretending
to be a part of the God-Fearing community of man
The community of Laws and of shared values
Even as he plots it's overthrow
The evidence against these men is clear
Of their guilt there is no doubt
But it is their salvation that we are about today
Only by there confession

Chorus (X1)

I Pretend I pretend
Wall-flower on the wall blending in
Trying to fit in I get caught between them Worlds
I'm everything to everybody
Trying to peel back the onion layers of the snake skin
Become New
Do it again

I Pretend I Pretend
Wall Flower on the wall blending in
I get caught between them Worlds
Chameleon
Trying to peel back the onion layers of the snake skin
Become New
Do it Again

Verse 2:

These Days my new Friends so Woke
Got me feeling like an Asshole when I wear my old clothes
Fake designer in my wardrobe
Never had shit
Used to stand in line for them Retros
Not as vain as I was or as shallow as I look
Been in dark places, I see shadows full of hooks
Trying to say in 10-Words what they're saying in a Book
Like Nietzsche
Open to whatever You believe in
Wish I had the luxury of being 1-Person
A man is what he does, so I'm trying to live with purpose
But I came from the Circus
Life is like Theater
Will you play the lead?
To be or not to be?
Everyday Halloween
Wear my heart on my sleeve
I'm hard to read
Truth is contradiction
We created Fiction
I can't devote my life to morbid self-attention
I'm just the Photographer don't pay me no attention
Never felt apart of life, I'm outside of the picture
I said Farr Well, They thought I was done with it?
I was Farr Well'n to become something different
I believe in The after Life and other dimensions
But I still Live it like I only got one
Used to worry about eviction and getting my door kicked in
Started from the bottom so You know I'm God's Son

Bridge

God's Son
Started from the bottom so You know I'm God's Son...
I was Farr Well'n to become something Different...

Chorus (X1)

Verse 3:
No skeleton, no flesh, no shape
I'm a stranger and afraid in a World I never made
Life gave me lemons but I'm tired of Lemonade
I'm trying to learn the Alchemy to turn it into Gold
Don't know where I wanna be like Donnell Jones
Don't believe in nothing never judging other Worlds
Don't remember former things or consider the old
I just put my Soul in Relics like Voldemort the Lord

It isn't the ending..
Two Friends...
