Woke up hungrier than ever They'll try to get in the way I think it’s time we sever Grow together Or die on your own We’ll build an empire You can keep that throne The world’s hoping you fold With a silver lining in sight I won’t settle for less than gold Go to bed hungry Wake up starving Can I speak bluntly? They started at a disadvantage Tried to cut my legs off *I’d be ****** too* If I was only average Atlantis wasn’t built in a day Blind eyes can lend you passage But broken bones only support decay Ambition stokes the fire Every hopeless dream is absolutely dire Expect nothing, take everything Hiding damage is the same as breathing Seeking treasures I can’t have Feed them to the sharks Throw myself to the wolves My biggest fear is to succeed It might be the life I want But not the life I need **Please **** me if I'm ever ******* average**

Hunger | Starvation | Ambition
Woke up hungrier than ever They'll try to get in the way I think it’s time we sever Grow together Or die on your own We’ll build an empire You can keep that throne The world’s hoping you fold With a silver lining in sight I won’t settle for less than gold Go to bed hungry Wake up starving Can I speak bluntly? They started at a disadvantage Tried to cut my legs off *I’d be ****** too* If I was only average Atlantis wasn’t built in a day Blind eyes can lend you passage But broken bones only support decay Ambition stokes the fire Every hopeless dream is absolutely dire Expect nothing, take everything Hiding damage is the same as breathing Seeking treasures I can’t have Feed them to the sharks Throw myself to the wolves My biggest fear is to succeed It might be the life I want But not the life I need **Please **** me if I'm ever ******* average**
