Untitled (Don't Step Outside The Box)

Verse 1
Don't step outside the box
Always looking out
Wondering what all this commotion's about
We are stuck here
And we're always trying to live the simple life
We try to keep things clean
We try to keep progressing
Maintaining a sense of identity is like climbing Everest
But that can't stop us
No, it won't stop us
From ever realizing our greater purpose
Witnessing and storing everything in sight
Disliking what we're processing
We'll try to change it
Change it for the better
Implement a new code for generations

Verse 2
Pay no attention to us
You do you, I do me
Let us be with our forgotten, tortured dreams
Fear and hate reside here
And we're always lying to live another day
Being surrounded by filth ultimately makes us filthy
It's a badge of honour
And it's worn proudly
Don't judge us for being different from you
We'll never be shamed
No, you can't shame us
Changing our ways is like wanting elephants to fly
Destroying and disrespecting everything in sight
Disliking those who stand in our way
We'll try to ignore them
Pretend they don't exist
Influence generations that will come to be

Verse 3
When we're ruined, we'll hide behind powerful protectors
They create the laws to which we abide by
No accountability, no remorse
Our future is predetermined
We're carried along
When things run smoothly, then things are rough
And the days will rise and fall on the whims of men
Unpredictability is invisible
And it's everywhere just like air

Chorus
Fight for your kind
And we'll fight for ours
Battles revolving around lines
In pursuit of victory to occupy minds
It's dangerous, it's complicated, it's worthwhile
