Eli Rhodes - No Fear Lyrics

[Intro]
Numb to the world, but I'm still here to fight
Popping pills just to make it through the night

[Verse 1]
Factory lights flickering above my head
Anxiety crawling through my veins like lead
Marcus passed me that little white friend
Said it'll make the panic comprehend
Mama's calling, worried 'bout her baby boy
But I can't tell her how I cope, can't destroy
Her image of the son she raised up right
Now I'm dancing with demons every night

[Chorus]
No fear when I'm floating
These pills got me coasting
No tears when I'm broken
Just peace that I'm hoping
To find in this bottle of prescribed dreams
Nothing's ever really what it seems

[Verse 2]
Blue collar blues, working through the pain
Chemical courage running through my brain
Clock in, clock out, trying to maintain
While these thoughts keep driving me insane
Street wisdom taught me how to cope
Better living through chemical hope
But underneath this artificial shell
There's a story that I'm scared to tell

[Bridge]
Sometimes I wonder who I really am
When the medication helps me give a damn
Am I stronger when I'm feeling numb?
Or just another kid who's come undone?

[Chorus]
No fear when I'm floating
These pills got me coasting
No tears when I'm broken
Just peace that I'm hoping
To find in this bottle of prescribed dreams
Nothing's ever really what it seems

[Outro]
No fear... but at what cost?
Finding peace, but feeling lost
