[Intro: Jonny 5]
Each movement that I make could make a movement
(Stress fatigue)
Each movement that I make could make a movement
(Glass gun deadly recipe)
Each movement that I make could make a movement
(Edge of the precipice)
Each movement that I make could make a
(Trigger finger press release)
[Verse 1: Jonny 5]
Now I know you heard of me, I know you saw
I know you're cursing me, round of applause
Like I don't deserve to breathe life when he’s not
Like why was I personally trying to be God
Now some of us murder and some of us lie
But I am not one of them, I am not one of them, why?
Pull out a gun to survive
Fire a gun and then die (A thousand deaths)
If you really knew me you would know
I am afraid of the dark
If you really knew me you would know
Try to be brave in my heart
But monologue, monologue, stereotype
I am not one of them, I am not one of them, why?
Pull out a gun to survive
Fire a gun and then die
Buried alive
[Chorus]
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Don't let me be
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Oh-oh
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Don't let me be
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Oh-oh
[Verse 2: Brer Rabbit]
Yeah, the shadows I battled and fell short
Hands up and lay down for a day
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Rattled by the snakes that don't show up and support
Get tread on with nothing to say
The flag doesn't sway without a plentiful breeze
I'd rather be buried than swing from a tree
And all of the yous are just different mes
I wanna speak less 'cause I am choosing to see
This epiphany
In infancy diplomacy is listening
To the child in each of us scream
A little bit of wisdom is a dangerous thing
And I don't give a damn without a militant eve
I'm deep but I'm not
[Chorus]
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Don't let me be
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Oh-oh
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Don't let me be
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Oh-oh
[Bridge]
If you could ever know
The thoughts I've known and seen what I have seen
All the spiteful stones that I've thrown did not protect me
I want you to know these heavy stones nearly crushed me
If I'd only known that heavy load that brought me low would help me grow
I wouldn't be
(Buried alive, buried alive)
[Chorus]
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Don't let me be
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Oh-oh
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Don't let me be
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Oh-oh
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Don't let me be
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Oh-oh
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Don't let me be
Buried alive, buried alive, buried alive
Oh-oh
