Crossroads by Wave Potter Lyrics

We are sick in our brains
But nobody knows it 'cause we feel ashamed
Besides all they can say is just 'i'm sorry, you'll be ok"
Why is it such a taboo topic?
A chemical imbalance seems so microscopic
I need to take control of this whirlwind
Before it swallows up my soul

I don't wanna waste half my life in this place i hate to be oh no no
I don't wanna waste half my life in this place i hate to be

So i am at a crossroads looking left and right
Reeling in my thoughts i hold on tight
I can give into fear and let my mind cripple me
Or i can fight it with these beats and poetry
I don't wanna be a slave to my anxiety
So i let out these sounds inside of me
I don't wanna be numb and i don't wanna be gone
Gotta find a way to balance fear and apathy

And my work don't care if i am dying or living
As long as i keep on giving and giving
They're gonna squeeze me dry and then they'll beg for more
And of course i am not compensated any more than i was yesterday
I look at the door dreaming of the last time that i cross this floor
I will say goodbye. I won't look behind
Can leave your dreams and be with mine
I don't wanna waste half my life in this place i hate to be oh no no
I don't wanna waste half my life in this place i hate to be

I've been on the run for most of my life
But i can only run for so long
Before i trip and all these things roll over me
It's time to face my fears head on
