you think you're trying to shut us out
and yet you are just our puppet
living on the edge your resolve
softer than butter
we control your desires
and give you leisure in abudance

you can't drown your sorrows in acidic liqiud
because we don't reside in your stomach
you can't force us out with meditations
no! we play king of the hill with your mind,
it's exhilrating

your mind is an abomination
and we casue commotion
because you have no regulations
or principles whatsoever
you have no authority
over your subconsciousness
and your conscience
is on the brink of extinction

sometimes it feels like a dream
and yet it's so real
with just a spark you've brought us this far
it's exciting

with your counsel you've single handedly imprisoned yourself
a prisoner chained down by his own addictions
he can't even break free
it seems you can ruin your own soul and life
and you don't even need me

your addictions a source of your happiness
coated with grief
you can't get over it
it sticks like gum
suffering sugar coated in lies and luxury.
messing up everything on your own
we have no problem with that
because you detached yourself and became lonely
and so we brought company, you'll never walk alone

we're not here to help you
you've grown now
for so long we acted like we cared about you
so it's pointless pretending that we won't hurt
for so long we acted like we cared about you
just so you could let us in some more until you become helpless

the control of the mind of a man
has been left in his hand by God
and it's called freewill
the right to choose whatever is right
and decline the wrong on your own accord
how can a man be a prisoner in his own home ?

yes the voices has the sweetest tongues
yes it has the smoothtest lies
but you alone control what stays in your mind .
grace is more than sufficient
but helplessness comes from ignoring the power of the almighty.
christ has set us free from the power of sin
and now we have power over sin

temptations will come but when our faith is so strong
it'll bounce off and leave.
no principality has control over your personality
because the almighty has paid the price
for the ultimate sacrifice for our iniquity.

if those voice come at you again,
remember that you're free in christ Jesus
and stand up straight
send them parking and never let anyone
or anything stay and confuse you
Selah !!
