Lyrics:
Lets go, to the place of envy that I live in
No more, I’m just sick of going on pretending
That I am fine with living in my shell so
I know, there’s no more time to swallow I’ll just wallow In pain, 
Well I guess all the time is what I say
I hate this. It just keeps on going, spinning round
When I hit the ground I hear the sound, it’s getting loud, too much right now.
I’m locked and loaded, with my heart, my soul, my love and what I wrote was;

Now it's seems too much to handle,
Always being passed up on the mantle.
When a better man plays, now I want to say
that I’m being staged, 
like I hate myself I tell them it’s all predestined for me to fail
And well, it hasn’t gone well enough, yeah I imagine that if we was made of gold we’d be sold to the highest bidder. And well I’m not a quitter, still feel like I’m a little bitter.
I’m copper let the hate hurt me, it’s electric
AC DC currents trends always with the worst luck.
Big smiles, big hugs, never gonna be enough
Trippin over words like hurdles, lacking gets my blood to curdle.
Don’t even have to tell me, these boots are getting heavy.
Go on let me tell you all about this raging muted fury.
Passion projects, basic concepts, getting stuck within the static
Now I'm in a manic panic, throwing shit, acting erratic.
Dropped from grace, a sinner from birth, sucks that I have to rehearse
My lines and confidence, my self esteem gets burned at the hearth.
I think that I’m needing a nurse, when I am feeling alert. 
A way to cope with needing to beat all the ones at the front.

Lets go, to the place of envy that I live in
No more, I’m just sick of going on pretending
That I am fine with living in my shell so
I know, there’s no more time to swallow I’ll just wallow In pain, 
Well I guess all the time is what I say
I hate this, It just keeps on going, spinning round
When I hit the ground I hear the sound, it’s getting loud, too much right now.
I’m locked and loaded, with my heart, my soul, my love and what I wrote was,

Lets go, to the place of envy that I live in
No more, I’m just sick of going on pretending
That I am fine with living in my shell so
I know, there’s no more time to swallow I'll just wallow In pain, 
Well I guess all the time is what I say
I hate this, It just keeps on going, spinning round
When I hit the ground I hear the sound, it’s getting loud, too much right now.
I’m locked and loaded, with my heart, my soul, my love and what I wrote was...

ENVY

Feminist, ecologist, geneticist. The reason your parents said to stay in school.

just your average everyday fox producer (I'm not very good at it lmao) that also does other stuff too. (but mainly beats n shit)
