Monster in a Cage

from Shark vs Cake by Fubar & Edd Bundy

/

lyrics

Verse 1:

I'm feeling like the anti-Christ sitting on the throne of Jesus
I swear it on the deity I don't believe in
my goal is breathe in
not easy when the reaper puts his hands around your throat and squeezes
I force myself to be alone for reasons
when I'm despondent level of dope increases
the fork in the middle of the road I reached it
with a compass that I broke to pieces
single greatest ACTOR of our time
laughter in DISGUISE, question me I ANSWER with a LIE
I did the MATH trying to be a FACTOR in my PRIME
but I'll never really capture what is mine, even after my demise
prepare for disaster when it strikes
or stay FALLING OFF with every CHAPTER THAT YOU WRITE
me I have a fire and the faster it ignites
the longer that I'm HOLDEN (holding) it in I am the CATCHER IN THE RYE

Chorus (Translation):

I told Coraline she can grow
Take her things and then leave
But she feels a monster holding her in a cage
That covers the road with mines

Verse 2:

I'm constantly depressed, doesn't matter if the planets align
examine a reality where tragedy thrives
in addition both dreams and fantasies die
because of nihilism nothing really matters in life
there's a demon that attempted to escape but I trapped it inside
you can hear him in the raps that I write
looking to cut any family ties
back on the grind, to live a life that was never actually mine
slowly I embark like I'm Noah with his ark
even though I've never felt I was chosen from the start
I've never felt like I was supposed to be a star
instead I relish yet another moment in the dark
living life knowing I was thrown in with the sharks
hoping that you notice that I'm showing you my heart
I'm exposing any scars
searching for a moment of happiness, wishing that I could hold it in a jar

Chorus (Translation):

I told Coraline she can grow
Take her things and then leave
But she feels a monster holding her in a cage
That covers the road with mines
