Twiztid - Lift Me Up

(Intro)
You got nine dollars? with yourself.
You’ve gotta wear that whether you like it or not.
You’ve got to choose things. You’ve got to get up and go, through all kinds of change.
Whether you want to or not doesn’t matter.


And I can feel it now
Its more obvious can ever theres a problem and I better try to figure out
If I'm willing ta solve em or ignore em like a mental child
Seems like its been awhile
Since I had an answer to one of life's mentals and riddled out
And now I'm stuck in this mental house and these four walls
Are driving me crazy and I'm begging em all
To take a different route, somebody save me
All I see is madness on a daily
Its getting out of hand like droppin a baby
All the pills I keep slappin away when they try to medicate me
I'm a danger to my safety
And my angers got me strapped in a jacket and most times and lately
I re-act to the fact that its all here to change me
With a middle finger to the face I stay the same me

(Lift me up)
In life the pressure so heavy that I feel I fallen to the wayside
If only I can get away from everything, spread my wings and then fly
(Lift me up)
I know I wasn't born to deserve to become a failure and die
If only I can get away from everything spread my wings and then fly

Our life is unclear shed a heavenly tear
For father we still toughen it out down here
In the midst of mankind
Where moneys so tight they cuttin throats for pennies nickels and dimes
Hard to walk a straight line
When the road curves like a snake
And most leaders are cowards lies and fakes
Who shout out follow in fear I pose a question
Your response, stay strong son and pick a direction
I'm not sure if I possess the confidence to carry on
But ill be here for the day and tomorrow will be gone
It's an example of scenarios
Use your time to leave a mark stronger than a miracle felt in a soul
To a believer, you don't have to say it twice
To a skeptic, I'm sure no proof will ever suffice
To a sinner, it was over before it ever begin
To the lost and lonely, sometimes they only need a friend

(Lift me up)
In life the pressure so heavy that I feel I fallen to the wayside
If only I can get away from everything, spread my wings and then fly
(Lift me up)
I know I wasn't born to deserve to become a failure and die
If only I can get away from everything spread my wings and then fly

You cant stop greatness
It has a way of shining through any gimmick or fake shit
My aspirations to make it
Don't make it easy for somebody trying to do it for real better believe me
Fly with me flap your wings slow
Feel the ground beneath your feet begin to go
Away from me I'm excited with energy
A vision of clarity rise above the storm for solidarity

And your popularity is a drop in the Bering sea
And apparently your nothing but average
I'm a dangerous package
Drive you all in my daydream
I'm laughing like a jackal as I spread my wings and elevate free
I know you hate me
But in the grand scheme deep in your heart you wanna thank me
Cause were the same we
All looking for escape from pretty much the same things

(Lift me up)
In life the pressure so heavy that I feel I fallen to the wayside
If only I can get away from everything, spread my wings and then fly
(Lift me up)
I know I wasn't born to deserve to become a failure and die
If only I can get away from everything spread my wings and then fly


(Outro)
In the spiritual world is where I live
I exist in places you’ve never even dreamed of
You talk about, you know, just the little physical realm you live in, guilty, and is he in sin?
How’s your courts guilty?
How many people do you think you’ve hung on the ventilators in the nut wards and forced medication on them?
You see what I’m saying? You don’t have any idea what the hell is going on
If you knew what the hell was going on in your own system
Then you’d say, “Now I see what’s creating this".
