I am a little bit of loneliness a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints but I can’t help the fact that everyone can see these scars
I am what I want you to want, what I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do, I can't convince you, to just believe this is real
So I let go, watching you, turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I got

Watch this!

I know, and even if I didn't know
I would lie so many would believe it
Stand up and resist the chains
Of all the people by belligerent sick restraint
I'm never enough
You bled me dry, using me up dissatisfied and used
Another key to the empty spot in you
I'm sick as a fuck, I'm in my prime
What do you want? I guess it's time to see
If you're lost in hell, you'll find no peace

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
That's what you do best
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
That's what you do best

Oh, wade through hate and fear
I haven't felt like this in years
Not much left, so uprooted
Fist clenched tight in the pockets of my hoodie
And I know where I need to go
But the voice of reason can't say no
It's in the eyes and heart
Just the latest psycho off the charts
I wasn't enough, you bled me dry
Which way is up? Oh, you're a lie and fake
I hope that truth is not too late

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
That's what you do best
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
That's what you do best

I ain't never giving in again
Cuss into the wind, complete freedom
Look at these rappers, how I treat them
So why the fuck would I join them when I beat them
They call me a freak because
I like to spit on these pussies 'fore I eat them
Man get these whack cocksuckers off stage
Where the fuck is kanye when you need him?
Snatch the mic from him, bitch, I'ma let you finish in a minute
Yeah, the rap is tight
But I'm fucking with the greatest verse of all time
So you might want to go back to the lab tonight and um
Scribble out them rhymes you were going to spit
And start over from scratch and write new ones
But I'm afraid that it ain't gonna make no difference
When I RIP this stage and tear it in half tonight
It's an adrenaline rush to feel the bass thump
In the place all the way to the parking lot, fellow
Set fire to the mic and ignite the crowd
You can see the sparks from hot metal
Cold-hearted from the day I bogarted the game
I so started to rock fellow
When I'm not even in my harshest
You can still get roasted because marsh is not mellow
Till I'm toppling from the top I'm not going to stop
I'm standing on my monopoly board
That means I'm on top of my game and it don't stop
Till my hip don't hop anymore
When you so good that you can't say it
Because it ain't even cool for you to sound cocky anymore
People just get sick 'cause you spit
These fools can't drool or dribble a drop anymore
And you can never break my stride
You never slow the momentum at any moment I'm about to blow
You'll never take my pride
Killing the flow, slow venom and the opponent
Is getting no mercy, mark my words
Ain't letting up, relentless
I smell blood, I don't give a fuck: Keep giving them hell
Where was you when I fell and needed help up?
You get no love

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
That's what you do best
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

(Why) why was it easy for you?
(Did) did I deserve the abuse?
(I) I can't believe I let it
(Not) not what I wanted
(See) see through your bullshit
(You're) you're so traumatic
(True) true to your form of
(Face) every consequence
(Un) unintimidated
(Till) till the very end
(It) it'll never happen
(Was) was it all a lie?
(Too) many motherfuckin'
(Late) that's what you do best
(Lie) that's what you do best
(Lie) that's what you do best

Don't turn your back on me
Don't turn your back on me
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
That's what you do best
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

I can't feel
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal
Don't turn your back on me
That's what you do best
