Battle Cry

I know i've been a little distant

Don't try to ask what that could mean

It's hard to work with the pressure

Appreciate the gesture

But i need privacy



So, could you please pay no attention

To the fuck behind the curtain?

I'll have something done in due time

So please don't be uncertain

That i've worsened

I swear i'm fine

Don't you ever mind



For now i'm trying out my battle cry

'Cuz if i used it now someone would die

I've had my practice in the weeks gone by

And it's a miracle i'm still alive



If i could have one week

To put time on pause

Or maybe just one day

For me to fix all my flaws



And then some



It's not like i'm out of commission

It just takes time to mend a wound

And let your scars show up

And no, i'm not hiding

I'm just finding

That my one-two punch

Is not enough



That's why i'm working on my battle cry

'Cuz if i used it now someone would die

I've had my practice in the weeks gone by

And it's a miracle i'm still alive



What i've started, i've ended

It's been a while since i've been caught red handed

And still they press, for what i do in my spare time

So how much time is enough

For me to set things right?

I don't want to play catch-up

I just want to put up a fight



That's why i'm working on my battle cry

'Cuz if i used it now you'd surely die

I've had my practice in the years gone by

So thank my mercy that you're still alive



When you feel the signs, you'd better run

When you hear my voice, you'd better run

When you see my face, you'd better run

Don't you turn your lights out, because i'm having fun
