Fuck who you was

[Intro: solo harmonica, and violin...a bit uplifiting, but also setting the tone] Fuck who you was, You became who I am. Whether down in a dungeon Drownin’ in shame Or up in the tower Above all the pain. Slow down fuckin’ mind, To yourself, you be kind. [pause] Hellfire surrounds me, as demons confound me. Their piercin’ gaze, Set my mind ablaze. Sellin’ me rot. Controllin’ my thoughts. Satan’s rule is, Wicked and cruel. Hidin’ my am, From this whole savage world. Trapped in this shit, Making me sick. Start Suckin’ down booze, That’s Just helpin’ me lose. That Man in the mirror, He’s Imprisoned, endangered. Should I strive to commit, or should I just fuckin quit? [Chorus: Explosive transition, full Gospel Backing Choir, heavy emotional soul] Fuck who you was, You became who I am. Whether down in a dungeon Drownin’ in shame. Or up in that tower Above all the pain. Slow down fuckin’ mind, To yourself, you be kind. Heaven’s gates found me, As angels crown me. Their wings define me So I become blinded. Their joy so strong, That I tag along. The vibes are so high, That I lift off and fly. My Real life’s forgotten. Blinders zoomed in, On Only what’s awesome. I cant do no wrong, In my minds eye. Focused on dreaming, Of what is now beaming. But the life all around me, Is startin to cry. My job starts to lose, My family is leaving. Is this really worth, All the dreams Ive been dreaming. Should I try to calm down, Or, get lost in this feeling. [Chorus: Full choir, maximum volume, triumphant] Fuck who you was, You became who I am. Whether down in a dungeon Drownin’ in shame Or up in the tower Above all the pain. Slow down fuckin’ mind, To yourself, you be kind. [Bridge: Deep-cutting Psychedelic Guitar Jam, meandering and trippy, heavy wah-wah effects] Back down on earth, I was doubting all worth. Confused who I am, And Doubtin’ all plans. Are they angels or demons, I just cant see them. Whether high or low, My mind starts to blow. [Music transitions yo uplifting like the sun just came out] But then I start breathin, And that feeling was leavin. Takin tiny steps, To get rid of the stress. Then it all came to me, I could finally see. Look man, change ain’t easy, Stay focused on real me. I know It’s nonstop, And boring, To that Man in the mirror. So I grabbed him screamin... [Instruction: Lead singer begins to 'call and response' with the Gospel Choir. The psychedelic guitar starts to 'wail' behind the vocals. Drumming becomes more complex and driving.] FUCK WHO YOU was! , Now, Become WHO YOU AM! Slow down fuckin’ mind, To yourself, You Be kind… Now, that Man took a blink, Then gave a wink. Smiling relievin And I saw that feeling The grabbed him squeezing, And said Now, you Love that am, As much as you can. I know you can do it, You dont have to prove it. Just follow these steps To get rid of the stress. Then all those feelings Will run away screaming. They say Fuck Who he is. Stay away from that man. [End: Abrupt hard stop on final word, no reverb tail, dead silence] [Stop]
