Prisoner of the Mind

Intro: It's like...
I dont know, man,
No matter what I do
I just can't beat this
I've had 2 weeks of freedom
But now it's back, with a vengeance

Verse 1:
Volcanoes erupted,
I've got so much to say,
Thoughts interrupted, Tryna keep 'em at bay
The noise is corrupted, I wait for the silence
Lay in my cell, made outta clay
Endless thoughts of destruction
When I drop the hammer down,
It sounds like the base of  percussion
Along with those violent strings
As I hear the thunder sing
Wonder what the lightning may bring
Lingering restless,
I'm no more than a single thing

Chorus:
Resolutions resolve over time
Solutions soon sewn in decline
Tried out a smile, but replaced it with a cry
Tired of standing in line of a dozen dimes,
Still trapped where my vines intertwine,
Baracaded behind bars,
Prisoner of the mind

Bridge:
These dymorphic illusions
Cause hysteria among us
It's barely an escape to write this
The oil well has been primed, Still a
Prisoner of the mind

Verse 2:
I aim for the world,
As im lost in the woods,
I wait for the words
But I dont hear a sound
Observed all the hurd-les
Squared surfacess are getting circled
As I hide in a shell with the turtles
Ache like tunnel syndrome in a car-pool
Now why cant I be the fighter
That I've always trained to be
And I've casted the shadows, of
Where I've been aiming to be
But I can no longer pretend
That ill always be here till the end
Reaching out for someone to save me
Very few with a helping hand to lend
For a broken mind to mend

Chorus:
Resolutions resolve over time
Solutions soon sewn in decline
Tried out a smile, but replaced it with a cry
Tired of standing in line of a dozen dimes,
Still trapped where my vines intertwine,
Baracaded behind bars,
Prisoner of the mind

Outro:
Sheetrock can't hold me
The skin on my knuckles dont protect me
Cause the noises I still play in my head
Touch my own skin,
I prayer for them to rid, cause when
They are gone, its the only place,
I feel strong, the only place I feel safe
