The Heretic

No plan, you're an idiot What were you thinking? Prancing out to the west coast Like somehow Your chances are different Like what? I'm not sure whose Kool Aid you sipping But newsflash: still ain't nobody listen to- YOU But you already knew that didn't you? Asked the crowd at your release show If anyone copped your debut Not one hand went up Hmm might be tougher than you envisioned At least I'm there to clean up After all of your poor decisions Another 40 at the 9-5 Feels like all I do I do to keep you alive Well, well, well now we've come to a point where Looks I do or you die How you gonna explain this to them Why I'm playing the villain while You're the one playing pretend Who really are you? Might wanna look again Take another look through the lens You call yourself the hero But real heroes are made within You're not aware of it, but... It's all about to end Who really are you? Might wanna look again You're not aware of it but You are the- I do not get it Could you please inform me What you are doing for humanity Don't you dare ignore me I am the reason you're still above water Breathing I gave you what you wanted And this is how you repay me Wasn't this situation Supposed to be temporary? A stepping stone Are you incompetent or just lazy? It's crazy thinking back to the days We thought the same Nowadays I can't imagine returning to that page You're re-reading, reading, reading How you gonna explain this to them Why I'm playing the villain while You're the one playing pretend Who really are you? Might wanna look again Take another look through the lens You call yourself the hero But real heroes are made within You're not aware of it, but... It's all about to end Who really are you? Might wanna look again You're not aware of it but You are the- Look I'm the voice of your reason I won't make this complicated You're smarter than this Your time's over Makes no sense to resist This is real life Not some fantasy in your head I'm not saying that it's wrong To have something to believe in But dreams aren't real Just because you believe em So when I'm telling you it's over It's cause I'm the one that's bleeding Gave you chance after chance and you blew it Game over How you gonna explain this to them Why I'm playing the villain while You're the one playing pretend Who really are you? Might wanna look again Take another look through the lens You call yourself the hero But real heroes are made within You're not aware of it but... You are the heretic Everyday you wake up And put on that suit and tie Look him in the eye Ask him is this the life you wanted? Cause that's what you gotta decide You going deeper and deeper Gusto was buried in debt But you getting buried alive I'm here to remind you The past doesn't bind you Stop hitting rewind you gotta put LA behind you there's time You're about to hit the breaking point Pretty soon it'll just be you To answer to your excuses And when you do I won't be there to juice you up It'll just be you Standing there answering questions from people forgotten Who pretended to care I regret to inform you The ending's slowly approaching Your window's closing I see the darkness calming encroaching Least you could do Is give them an encore to Your final show Show them the you You were too insecure to If you got any strength left I would hold on to virtue I'm gone
