Identity Lyrics

Sifting through ash of my ambition

I'm reminded I'm a slave to life's attrition

But You have your whole life in front of you

Don't let let this callous world consume you

It just can't get enough

Gripping it's crooked fingers around your throat

Gripping your throat

Everyday is a struggle just to exist

We pretend to believe that there's something greater in the end

Don't hang on to a promise

If you're torn just know you're not the only one

Who will you become

Who do you want to be

Whatever you choose, leave your legacy

And let you your light shine bright

Be a beacon in the dead of night

Drifting, in search of what's accepted

Molding ourselves because we fear to be rejected

Clouding our self perception

We're hiding from our own reflections

Don't be ashamed stand tall go on just show yourself

Don't waste your time pretending to be like someone else

Don't waste your time pretending to be like someone else

Follow your heart never cower from who you are

When this world infects you with its carnal poison

Keep your eyes clear

Don't let all the noise in

Make your decisions wisely

You get one chance

Cherish who makes you happy

Save them the last dance

Who will you become

Who will you be

Whatever you choose, leave your legacy

And let your light shine bright

Be a beacon in the dead of night

There's only one reason I can find

To throw it all away

And leave it all behind

But you're the reason that I don't quit

I hope I'm still here when you hear this

My pride my joy you're the air that fills my lungs you're

My life my boy when my world starts shaking you're my solid ground

I hope you remember more good than bad

Looking back at the life we have

So when you're lost and you feel alone

I promise I'll always come running home

This paradox life is toxic

So empty yet you feel boxed in

Time burns extinguishing conflicts but the end results are frozen it's nonsense

Some days you won't seem to win

Stress yourself out you're wearing thin

Can't back out now we're in too deep

Waiting for something to set you free

Come and set me free

You are my true identity

Forever the greatest part of me

I hope you remember more good than bad

Looking back at the life we have

So when you're lost and you feel alone

I promise I'll always come running home
