Broken Reality
(Sound of a phone vibrating on a glass table.
A click, then a hollow speakerphone voice) Adjuster: "Yeah,
hi, calling about the claim.
Look, the vehicle is a total loss.
Frame is bent. We can process the payout,
but with your current
situation... getting into something new is gonna be incredibly difficult.
Good luck." (Sound of the call disconnecting.
A single, ominous bass drone swells,
then the beat violently drops) "Hard to get a new one," yeah,
that’s what he said Like I don't already got the wolves in
my head Like I haven't been walking till my sneakers are torn
Like I wasn't already baptized in the storm Something just snapped,
something just broke Tired of the smoke,
now I’m becoming the choke You think it's hard?
Watch what I do I’m done being patient,
I’m done being blue
No more Mr. Nice Guy waiting for a break If the world
won't give it, it's something I'll take Fuel in the tank of
my mind, it is burning Look at the tables,
I'm forcing the turning
Yeah, I snapped, yeah,
I woke up angry
No more playing victim,
nobody can tame me
You said it was hard,
well I’m making it harder Ditching the pain,
now I’m moving much smarter
From the wreck to the rush,
out of the cage
Turning the sorrow right into a rage
Yeah, I snapped, yeah,
I woke up angry
Watch what I do now
They wanted a sob story,
wanted me weak Wanted me quiet and humble and meek But the
hunger is vicious when you have been starved Look at the path
that my own hands have carved I’m running on venom,
I’m running on spite
Sleeping all day just to hustle the night
Oh, it’s gonna be difficult?
Tell me some more I’ve already crawled on the concrete floor
Every "no" that you gave me is wood for the fire Every
locked door making me climb it higher
I don't need your pity,
I don't need a loan I’m building an empire out of a
stone
Yeah, I snapped, yeah,
I woke up angry
No more playing victim,
nobody can tame me
You said it was hard,
well I’m making it harder Ditching the pain,
now I’m moving much smarter
From the wreck to the rush,
out of the cage
Turning the sorrow right into a rage
Yeah, I snapped, yeah,
I woke up angry
Watch what I do now
Total loss... yeah, right...
Nothing left to lose means I'm dangerous tonight...
Watch what I do...
(The heavy 808
cuts abruptly on a sharp snare hit,
leaving just a fast,
heavy breathing sound)
