Never Lose Your Flames

Riddle me this, I gotta figure it out Are they laughing at me Because I'm prone to fear and doubt? Am I messed up, am I loud? Well, eat my dust, that's all I am, a speck out in the crowd I'm trying to clean up the mess I made But the towel I used to soak up my worry, it just went up in flames You see I got a conscience like gasoline I could siphon shit out, fuck it and leave But I fuel the fire with everything they said It's stuck in my mind, you're better off dead If you got the keys, then start the car and (Go!) Drive as far as you can If you got the blood, then you got the heart to (Hey!) Give yourself a chance Seems like we've been so scarred Some people call it artI hope you make peace with your pain And never lose your flames You call yourself a doctor, you swear you got the cure Prescribe yourself with medication when you're feeling insecure I know the world is dark, but you've got the light Even sitting in the closet chilling with the skeletons you fight I guess you found the meaning of giving up on me I'm not the person that you thought I was I broke the ice, I revealed the scandal But the water's deeper than you're able to handle Oh, that's probably why you hit me twice Said, "No son of mine, get out of my life" It's my fault, it's what I deserve I needed a blessing, but I got a curse If you got the keys, then start the car and (Go!) Drive as far as you can If you got the blood, then you got the heart to (Hey!) Give yourself a chance Seems like we've been so scarred Some people call it artI hope you make peace with your pain And never lose your flames Misunderstood, I'm misunderstood I will live to my fullest because I owned my name the best I could Misunderstood, we are all misunderstood Everybody own your name I wish you would, I wish you would If you got the keys, then start the car and (Go!) Drive as far as you can If you got the blood, then you got the heart to (Hey!) Give yourself a chance Seems like we've been so scarred Some people call it artI hope you make peace with your pain And never lose your flames Seems like we've been so scarred Some people call it artI hope you make peace with your pain And never lose your flames
