lyrics

[Sir Reginald Bailey] Imagine for one moment…
[Dr Franz Tobel] Please. I will not change my mind Sir Reginald, I am taking the matter into my own hands.
[Sir Reginald Bailey] Just what do you propose to do, Dr. Tobel?
[Dr Franz Tobel] I am sorry, I cannot reveal the details of my plan for the present.
[Sir Reginald Bailey] Do you think that’s wise?
[Dr Franz Tobel] I regret, gentlemen, I cannot change my decision. I shall work independently!

Who has the final say? Who?
I like to believe that I control my own fate, please,
All that I bleed, I’m hoping you’ll appreciate,
‘Cause as a writer I’m lonely, yeah.
As a writer I’m lonely, I’m falling deep in my brain,
This life is not for the ones who play safe, (stay away).
Too many losses in my days,
Man, I wish I could erase all of the pain.
It’s not a phase, I can feel the fucking hate,
You never had a friend like me, believe that.
I want you to succeed with cheddar cheese and flats,
Big cribs, yeah, and it's all good,
We all make mistakes in these lawless woods,
Concrete jungle can make you fumble real quick
If you ain’t making moves then you can lose your existence,
Damn, yeah, and I don’t think you want it like that,
Give it right back, all the negative is sidetrack.

Running away won’t fix my problems, but I’m a hopeless mess.
Running away won’t fix my problems, can ya’ll adjust my stress?
For real,
Ignorance is bliss.
I’m for real, yeah,
Ignorance is bliss.
I’m for real,
Ignorance is bliss.
For real,
I close my mind to the world around me.

I’d rather have it this way, (I’d rather have it this way).
You can judge from afar, but you could never be God,
You could never persuade (never).
I’m independent to the bone,
Doing this all alone,
Not knowing if I’ll make it, but baby this life I chose, yeah.
Escúchela, la ciudad respirando,
The city is breathing, calling my name to the cosmos.
That’s how it goes,
A whisper turning into a song,
Don’t care if everybody’s treating me wrong.
I got it, ignorance is bliss, all I want is this,
I don’t care about the distractions, I won’t shift.
I don’t have regrets for any words that I spit,
‘Cause every word I done lived,
I’m into making these hits,
I’m into making you love me, I hold it down in this bitch.
And if they’re telling me I’m wrong, what? I’m closing my lids.

Running away won’t fix my problems, but I’m a hopeless mess.
Running away won’t fix my problems, can ya’ll adjust my stress?
For real,
Ignorance is bliss.
I’m for real, yeah,
Ignorance is bliss.
I’m for real,
Ignorance is bliss.
For real,
I close my mind to the world around me.

Running away won’t,
Running, never looking back now.
Running away won’t,
Running, running ‘til I black out.
Running away won’t fix my problems, but,
Running away won’t fix my problems.
For real,
Ignorance is bliss.
I’m for real, yeah.
Ignorance is bliss.
I’m for real,
Ignorance is bliss.
For real,
I close my mind to the world around me.
World around me,
World around me.
I’m for real, yeah.
I’m for real.
I’m for real, yeah.
Close my mind to the world around me.
Escúchela, la ciudad respirando,
la ciudad respirando.
Escúchela, la ciudad respirando,
la ciudad respirando.

All I got is one mission and I’ll never stop trying.
They think I’m done, they think I’m ready to run,
But motivation is beautiful, comical but still suitable.
I don’t know if you noticed, but I’m a student to the game.
Never will it change, I don’t want to die knowing music never stayed.
Classik.

Say my name,
say my name.
I’ma live forever,
Live forever.
Say my name,
Say my name.
I’ma live forever,
Live forever.
