Dial Tone Lyrics

I got a message for the mayor

Directing a narrative impressing

Come correct when confessing

The stress progressing needs addressed

Might wanna pull up a chair

Wrestling to stay afloat

Promoted to captain

Grab the paddle now

Let's row the boat

I'm the current

Been learning my turns

Doing circles straight out of the moat

You know I do the most

Smack the taste out my mouth

Till I crack the code

It's buried beneath my pride

I just stay awoke

This journeys been long and lone some

Solemnly swear yet

They don't look in the mirror

Critical to be fair now lemme make it clearer

Peace of mind if you don't mind

If I add it to my wish list

Self help with myself

I'm feeling defenseless

I forgot to mention

A master piece covering up

A mistake you don't see

Since I'm touching it up

To figure how we got to be so artistic

I'm not loosening up my grip

I'm so pretentious

Do you get the vision

Dial tone dial tone

Calling for some help

Y'all know I'm all on my own on my own

What is home

I don't know

In the microphone with the headphones

Is all I ever known

Dial tone dial tone

Calling for some help

Y'all know I'm all on my own on my own

What is home

I don't know

In the microphone with the headphones

Is all I ever known

Dial tone dial tone

Dial tone dial tone

Dial tone dial tone

Dial tone dial tone

Finding my own peace of mind

So vivid I get livid it's a strategy

How I'm living played victim to many times

Questions arise

Quite a tragedy

Often times I can't even handle me

If I light a candle it would completely dismantle me

Snapping me back to the cold hard reality

Tune into the tv screen

Another manic episode is happening

A panic room It's my reality

I didn't stutter now watch your tone

Or you'll bring the worst out of me

Here hold up the phone

Holding myself up for ransom

All alone what is wrong with me

Now put your hands up

Got my sleeves tucked yeah we rolling them up

To better understand what I'm meaning

Take a look at the difference between an angel and a demon

A constant disagreement on right and wrong

Now tell me what do you believe in

Dial tone dial tone

Calling for some help

Y'all know I'm all on my own on my own

What is home

I don't know

In the microphone with the headphones

Is all I ever known

Dial tone dial tone

Calling for some help

Y'all know I'm all on my own on my own

What is home

I don't know

In the microphone with the headphones

Is all I ever known

Dial tone dial tone

Dial tone dial tone

Dial tone dial tone

Dial tone dial tone

Been crawling about to start running to my calling

Down on the ground head pounding I been stalling

Loneliness been my one and only friend for years

So applauding when I finally escape from my fears

Like a sick joke

Where's the antidote

I been on the prowl

So I can be proud

Ya know

I'm so defiant

Hey, look at me now

I got the scars of a lion

I can hear the crowd - yelling

You know they ain't lying

Coming from the ashes so - compelling

Running from my past got my secrets they - telling

See if we don't handle things they come back acapella

Trust your progress have faith in your steps

Direction through the trenches don't settle for less

Lessons learned is a blessing that is earned

Seeing life this way will help you get exactly what you deserve

Dial tone dial tone

Calling for some help

Y'all know I'm all on my own on my own

What is home

I don't know

In the microphone with the headphones

Is all I ever known

Dial tone dial tone

Calling for some help

Y'all know I'm all on my own on my own

What is home

I don't know

In the microphone with the headphones

Is all I ever known

Dial tone dial tone

Dial tone dial tone

Dial tone dial tone

Dial tone dial tone
