Wake Up! (Puppeteer) "Titanium Edit"

Intro

Yeah…
That sound?
That’s the heartbeat turning into a fucking warning sign.
Let’s wake the monster up.

⸻

Verse 1

I got a beast in my chest tryna snap my spine,
Clawin’ at the ribs like “get me out, it’s fucking time.”
Runnin’ from the shadows that I crafted in my mind,
Now the monster caught up—said “move, bitch, I’m alive.”

I’m a live wire—spark when the pressure hits,
Flip a whole verse quick like a switchblade twist.
I tried to keep calm but calm ain’t shit,
So I spit till the fear gets scared and quits.

I chew pressure like wolves chew bone,
Mind sharp as hell when I’m in that zone.
Every scar on my name? I carved that alone—
Now I’m back for the throne with a growl in my tone.

⸻

Hook

I can’t hold it in, it’s breakin’ out,
Hear the growl in my throat when I’m filled with doubt.
Every fear that I fed turned wild, no doubt—
Now the beast in my chest wanna tear shit down.
I can’t hold it, I can’t hold it—
Every heartbeat’s fucking ferocious.
I can’t hold it, I can’t hold it—
Yeah, the beast in my chest lost focus.

⸻

Verse 2 
Yeah, I been battlin’ myself like a goddamn ritual,
Mind so twisted even Satan calls it “typical.”
Every fucking thought in my skull turns critical,
Breakin’ down the peace like a habit that’s clinical.

I’m cynical—tell a therapist “take notes,”
My brain’s a live grenade with a pin half broke.
I choke on my doubts, then spit out the smoke,
Walk straight through hell like, “fuck it, I’ll cope.”

I got venom in my pen and a coffin for the past,
Been runnin’ from the mirror ‘cause the mirror talks back.
It says “you ain’t shit,” I say “kiss my ass,”
Then the beast in my gut says “attack, attack.”

I’m unstable—no label can hold this anger,
Lines turn violent, a lyrical banger.
Flow switch quick like a double-barrel chamber,
I write whole wars on a goddamn piece of paper.

Overthink? Bitch, I overkill, overdo,
Overload circuits till the thoughts turn blue.
Paranoia in my ribs sayin’ “who are you?”
And the answer’s “I’m the motherfucker breaking through.”

I been pacing in a cage made of old mistakes,
Every failure that I fed turned into something great.
Now the monster in my chest says “let’s raise stakes,”
And I follow like a sinner with no breaks.

Breath shakes—heart aches—
But I still write straight with a mind full of earthquakes.
Regret got teeth and it bites till the bone breaks,
But I chew the pain back till the whole fucking world shakes.

Tell the voices in my skull they can shut the fuck up,
I ain’t takin’ their advice, I ain’t listenin’ much.
If life throws a punch, I punch twice as tough,
I’m the rage you abandoned, the beast you fucked up.

I’m the shadow that you buried, the scream you ignored,
The part of you that snapped when you slammed that door.
The voice in the dark sayin’ “give me more,”
And now I’m here—full teeth, full claws, I’m war.

I’m the reason your heartbeat raises the stakes,
The reason every line I spit goddamn vibrates.
I’m the “fuck you” whispered when your whole world breaks—
I’m the animal inside that nobody can replace.

⸻

Hook

I can’t hold it in, it’s breakin’ out,
Hear the growl in my throat when I’m filled with doubt.
Every fear that I fed turned wild, no doubt—
Now the beast in my chest wanna tear shit down.
I can’t hold it, I can’t hold it—
Every heartbeat’s fucking ferocious.
I can’t hold it, I can’t hold it—
Yeah, the beast in my chest lost focus.

Sublime with Rome, the ska alternative rock group from California, was formed in 2010 by Rome Ramirez, Eric Wilson, and Bud Gaugh. With fan-favorite hits such as “Wrong Way”, “Santeria”, “Badﬁsh”, “What I Got”, “Caress Me Down”, “40oz to Freedom” and many more, the band's concerts are pure sing-along enjoyment from the beginning to end.

The band released its debut album, Yours Truly, on July 12, 2011, and broke the top ten on the Billboard 200. The band toured in support of their hit 2019 album Blessings with singles “Wicked Heart” and “Light On” making a splash on alternative radio. Blessings is the band's third studio album, and it was helmed by Rob Cavallo, the producer behind Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Linkin Park, and more. In 2020 Sublime with Rome dominated the rock and alternative music charts as well as headlining shows in sheds, amphitheaters, and major festivals worldwide.

Sublime with Rome continued to make waves in 2023, having collaborated with Slightly Stoopid on “Cool & Collected,” the ﬁrst new release from both groups in several years. A long overdue reunion of sorts, making the track an especially meaningful project given Bradley of Sublime ﬁrst signed Slightly Stoopid to Skunk Records back in 1996. The group celebrated the release with a joint summer tour full of packed shows across 27 cities following a solo headlined sold-out show at Colorado’s iconic Red Rocks.

In late 2023 Sublime with Rome released a brand new EP, Tangerine Skies. Produced by Rome Ramirez, this EP also enlisted the talents from a super roster of friends and family including Neal Avron, Left Coast Sound, Gabrial McNair, BSAMZ, and more!

Currently, Sublime with Rome has over 279 million all-time streams, and over 580k monthly listeners on Spotify. This is in addition to the legacy statistics which include 10M Spotify monthly listeners. “Santeria” remains the top song with over 740 million Spotify streams. This is followed by “What I Got” with over 464 million streams and “Badﬁsh” with over 187 million streams (stats via Spotify). Sublime with Rome’s final self-titled album, recorded at Sonic Ranch, is a celebration of the last fifteen years and is a thank you to the fans for their love and support on this journey. The album is available everywhere now.
