Life is like a costume party
Just cover the floors in Cavalli
Let's hide the hurt in a molly
We all tryna be somebody else
You can't hide your tears in wealth
When you heart knows you need yourself
It's all pain we felt, just the way that the cause been delt
Gather all that is passed
Drop an olive in your glass
Putting on a disguise
It's an ocular advice
Everyone on the run
50 feet all on the gas
Take him out, take him out
Gonna take him out
We're the only theory they can prove
And we don't have anything to lose
In my eyes, in my ears, bring life
Love is only figured once in life
Tell the crowd, search the town
Can we make it alright now?
It's a full meltdown
Try to break her spirit so it shouldn't be surprisin'
We're here with no fear and gave her uprising
Gonna blend in with the bullies and the bureaucrats
Arrows pierce like lightning
Choppers sound like thunder clap
Never will you stand, we gon' lay you down
Dominant and dapper kids comin' in to take the town
Try to restrain us, even though you trained us
We're better than you are
Now we're gonna make you feed us
Gather all that is passed
Drop an olive in your glass
Putting on a disguise
It's an ocular advice
Everyone on the run
50 feet all on the gas
Take him out, take him out
Gonna take him out
We're all lookin' for status
Cristal sent over on gratis
Can't pretend we're not plastic
When these poker faces take practice
Who to trust? Who to love?
Who to run from? Who to hug?
Set fire to a government of thugs
Respect only comes from the money or your blood
We're out of sight, shadows of light
They're closing in and I know where we're goin'
But it ain't nowhere I'd be
In my eyes, in my ears, bring life
Love is only figured once in life
Tell the crowd, search the town
Can we make it alright now?
It's a full meltdown
I can hear, see a ghost
In my mind, I know
And if you keep, lock you up
I'm your undertow
(I can hear, see a ghost)
Was it meant to be?
(In my mind, I know)
'Cause I can't see
(And if you keep, lock you up)
I can't see
(I'm your undertow)
I can hear, see a ghost
In my mind, I know
And if you keep, lock you up
I'm your undertow
