Hey, Rise!

Well
If it ain't the consequence of my actions
There I go caving in again
I, want to be
About anyone but myself
And I, want to see
The colors of the world through prism glass
When clothing didn’t fit so tight
(Fit so tight)
And my bones didn't ache at night

Go ahead and try to fake it this time
Stretching out the fabric just to fool the mind
I don't match with this body of mine
Call on somebody just to hear sunshine
And if I happen on a mirror one time
Try and look away, outta sight, outta mind
Heart wants what the body won’t abide
Keep voices soft and kind

Hey, Rise, it's alright
We're coming back around to the starting line
The road is long, don't you pay no mind
You and me can just sit and vibe
Throw on your records
And big, cozy swеaters
Wait out the rainy weathеr
I promise we'll feel better some-day

The only goal is to be lusted after
By any and all, so I pander and pander
Trying hard to ignore my own laughter
Loving myself is a fucking disaster
And in my dreams I imagine
I carve off this stomach with a knife, strike a match and watch it fucking burn
Then I open up my eyes, and the voice goes:

“You're content to be a punchline
The funny, fat guy for the rest of your life?
Who is ever gonna want your time?
And if they call you sweet
Then you know it's all lies"
"Why would anyone be so inclined
Who would want a body so destroyed like mine?"
"Write ‘em off, you ain't worth no dimes
Write ‘em off, you’re past your prime.”
But I’ve heard about enough tonight, so

Hey, Rise, it's alright
We’re coming back around to the starting line
The road is long, don't you pay no mind
You and me can just sit and vibe
Throw on your records
And big, cozy sweaters
Wait out the rainy weather
I promise we'll feel better some-day

Let's go!

Sun’s coming up
We're choosing love
