DAVID DAVID DAVID DAVID DAVID DAVID Sitting behind the keys, connecting the dots Tryna find the space between the notes on the spot Tryna read between the lines In a search of better times But the measures can't be treasured cause they're on lock Looked at the kid the other day and saw myself in the reflection The hunger in his eyes and the strive for perfection The ever-growing knowledge soon became resentment As I realized the boy became independent See at times, all he had was himself When he couldn't speak his mind And he couldn't ask for help He stayed quiet But the silence spoke volumes Sadly for him, he had tone deaf surroundings The lone wolf, the sole survivor His sorrows multiplied and he turned into a Product of his own environment Meningitis and no-one there to save it His mom grabbed his arm And was screaming at him "David" DAVID DAVID DAVID Wake up lil man, what you saying DAVID DAVID DAVID Call an ambulance pops, start praying What's a penny for your thoughts if your life ain't worth a dollar What's left of all your talents when your life hangs in the balance These questions, left unanswered We'll never know what would've happened But nowadays people say that my life is going great Got a stunning girlfriend and there's food on my plate They want a piece of me To complete their own puzzle But I made mine alone with my own fucking struggles The best way to fight fear is information But to them, ignorance is bliss in any situation First they turned a blind eye Then they gave a side eye They looked at my body And they left me there to die Used the grief as the fuel for the engine in my brain Lost control of the wheel, it nearly drove me insane Got seriously trapped within the cages I built Killed my demons and I almost got survival's guilt Almost - hah See I'm still standing The man with a plan and I'm still demanding Some are born lucky Others lucky to be born Safe to say that I know which side that I'm on DAVID DAVID DAVID Wake up lil man, what you saying DAVID DAVID DAVID Call an ambulance pops, start praying Burn the whole place down if I have to Would even give my life in exchange for you So many questions, left unanswered We'll never know what would've happened See at times, all he had was himself When he couldn't speak his mind And he couldn't ask for help He stayed quiet But the silence spoke volumes Sadly for him, he had tone deaf surroundings
