Stealing From A Thief

Don't want a life like my parents had
Don't want a life like my rich friends have
Don't want to live by association
Don't want to live the great maybe
I want a life not a name online
I want to live it in real time
I want a life just so i can be
I never asked what was in it for me

Stealing from a thief
My humanity
I know my name, i know my pain
I know my frequency
Dancing with the beast

As a kid i'd play make believe
As a man i play make believe
As a kid i'd do anything
As a man i do everything

I live my life centered and humane
I live my life like a man insane

I get up, i get up and go
I grab a hold and reach way down
To find something that i really believe
I don't need to console myself
If i don't like what i see
