"Three..." As he stands infront of a reflection he no longer recognizes, his body begins to tremble Anxiety seeps into the cracks of his troubled soul and he is left stiff Unmoved Wrapped by the cold, rigid fingers of fear "Two..." He begins to settle He fills his lungs with deep, steady breaths and slowly gains composure All while he lies to himself "I'm okay, I'm okay" Until he finally develops the confidence to believe it "One..." He buries his inhibitions He bottles up his fears He masks the truth with his best fake smile as he prepares to come out on stage and put on one hell of a show for the world to see "Action..." The audience applauds his performance But at the end of the day, when the cheering dies down and the curtains are drawn When the stage is cleared and the spotlights cut to black It's still just one big act And everyone seems to love it

Dressing Room
Physically exhumed with this lack of energy I'm Mentally consumed by a swirling synergy A slot car racing on this track of infinity Pad lock thoughts into frames of reality I'm chained inside of an eight sided polygon never all knowing like a bird I'm flying on. breaking free and clear of their ******* mentality rise above all the physical technicalities We were born free so live beyond the fallacy Your living in the matrix are you gonna take this It's your reality and you don't have to fake it Will you choose to make it right or be complacent Hope you ****** wake up seeing red and remake it Standing on a tightrope roasted off the caffeine start of the day and my minds collapsing downstream Sucka CEO's think they got me in the rear-view but the image looks much closer when I'm doin what I wanna do bending silver spoons with the gentlest ease I'm back breaking buildings for a tropical breeze Busting out of cubicells  like smoking tha trees It gets me so high cause it's that feeling of Free dumb deaf dull and blind you will forever be till you step out of the matrix of amour-propre Why you living in the Matrix you don't have to take this make your reality you don't have to fake it. If you choose to waste it or over half bake it You will wind up with the blues ***** that you have wasted I'm more than a man I'm iron Machine Built with a plan I'm spiritually clean mastered the mill I'm churning distilled don't look at my skin fore you'll come on the bill. breaking the sound with a whiplash wink thrill twisting the meanings so quick wonder what will Drum up the reasons we work on the grind listlessly dreaming while working the line A rank in the file smells drunk with a smile never so lucky your desk work is bile method is meaningless sample the trial aftertaste ing the punch clocks race to denial I told you the method is made to beguile Believe me the Matrix's more real than today the pulsing, the thinking, the dreaming, your pay It dictates your future gifts presents your past Do what your doing and you'll get what you have Master the moments, you'll bend more than your back. Wake up in the now and put the numbers to sleep Math is all good as long as the counter keeps beat who do you trust the man or the mayhem?, what created the cosmos or the CEO or his seat? cállate la boca Carpe deim Rise to your Feat! Your outside the Matrix please don't just take it This reality needs you don't play it safe with the masses may waste it but you can remake wit Your life is a battlefield your jobs to overtake it.
