Cue the Lights

Nathanael Elmshaeuser

Sympathetic without the "sym" figure that one out
Perceive the truth you think that you can't well I will show you how
Sitting down you think I am out well I am standing now
Standing out oh you do not like that well then shut my mouth
Not
What are you thinking I can't do
What are you thinking you can do
I am just saying that no matter what you will tell me
I will not adhere to your ban fools
You coming against me with weapons of hate
I will not bow on down to you I will not wait
Cuz I'm gonna scare all of the darkness away
And it will not survive in the glory of day
It will fade away but that won't be no I'm gonna stay
Grabbing my sword and charge into the fray
Rip it right through them yeah make em afraid
Ram in the heart of the dark and the evil
Rip it right through them yeah it's unbelievable
Watch the blood drip out the body will fall
Is this too bloody and graphic for y'all
Well this is reality this is a way
You think it's far away no it's on your door
We have to have courage to go out and fight
Get out of the darkness and go be the light

Cue the lights
You know I've been writing every night
For the fight
You know it is bloody pick a side
We're the lights
Just because of us they will survive
So cue the lights
I know you ain't been standing choose what's right
Cue the lights
They tell me I won't measure up
To believe I can't treasure up
I've tried for years
All through these blood stained sweat and tears
I cannot take much more of this
I was bad off even before all this
It's dark the place inside my mind
It's stark the contrast bleak rewind
Turn up the music try to hide
These bloody scars ripped open wide
No matter how long I bleed inside
I somehow keep living in override
I know I cannot be enough for you
I know I can't measure up right to you
But you mean nothing to me I keep on pressing on
I keep on speaking and you need a lesson on
All of your lies I can't help but be torn apart
Nonexistent emotion it's all worn apart
I must try to lift my mind above all the lies
Stab in the heart and push deeper until it dies
Yo they been doing anything they can been tryna snap me to gas me
You guys should try something more strong to match me
See cyanide all up the pills may be enough for all the weak
But for a guy like me it's a breeze every week

Life is like a cypher love is like a sniper
Pull the trigger then it bites you venom like a viper
Do that 180 like Kanye
I set free and fight change
I rip rage defeat plays
Destroy face like blood mage
Been ripping it all shipping it all
To all of you people who support my art
At least it's a start I know it's not sharp
At least not yet but I keep prodding my heart
To find y'all a message that might bring you love
But some of you don't get you must look above
Above and beyond of the things of the earth
Above all your feelings what you think you're worth
Cuz that is the place that you'll find your contentment
It is that light that is us ease your resentment
And that is why I will shout out this call to you
That when I say cue the lights I'm cueing you
I'm cueing you

Sometimes I think about if anyone will ever read this
Sometimes I think about if anyone will ever need this
I wonder in my heart if anyone could ever see this
And if no one will should I keep writing or should I just free this
There's a lot of artists out there man should I even try
I get discouraged by the fact that many will never reach the sky
Most of us who put our heart and soul in making all our music
Get shut down and called a failure no one ever wants to use it
This is art man back away with your complaining
When we dropping songs we're tryna make it better we're explaining
That we have something to offer something that can give you rest
Save you from your sickened heart spiritual cardiac arrest

I'm seeing battle on every side
But I won't run and hide
At least we tried
It's our pride
See you on the other side
Cue the lights
Cue the lights
