about

This track is about the war within. It's about the internal battles that are waged against us...by us. If the phrase "You are your own worst enemy" has ever resonated with you, please listen.

lyrics

There's a battle waging
Bombs-blowing
Trenches dug
Firing guns
All while not-knowing
This is going on.

My insides are like
Normandy beach
I'm looking at me storming the beach
While I'm breaking down
Mourning deceased
Versions of me that are dying
By my own hand...

I'm trying to radio for help
But the phone's dead

Looking at myself
I'm like, whoah man
I've been the reason
That I've lived in a cold trench,
This whole time?

Why would I do that to myself?
Why would I wage a war
To prove to myself
That I'm not worth
What people credit me for?

I see a scene of me happy
That I keep editing more
And, on the horizon
Looms a self leveling storm

Air strikes and mortars
A literal wall that explodes

Internally,
I battle a barrage of insults
Externally,
I'm looking like I'm there but I'm not
Because the struggle within
Has dissolved my emotions

Even if I win the battle
I've lost the war...

Because it's a war with myself
So, really what's it all for?
