Joe Sung-Rae - Hero Complex Lyrics



Joe Sung-Rae - Hero Complex Lyrics
Official




Spider bites, goosebumps in the night
Acne can't attack me when venomous goblins fight
Heights never intimidate, but hesitating might
I reach out for stern discernment, distinguishing wrong from right
Midas, blessed with alchemy, was left to suffer
In his actions as he hoped to revert his family's skin back to umber
I spun a web of lies to ensure the safety of others
While worried that they discovered, left relationships asunder
Blunder
I confess it's not an optimal decision
But my current situation is not what I envisioned
Although I'm cornered by deadlines and ambitions
Passing through the city streets, I cannot simply be a witness
To the vicious misdemeanors leaving citizens heartbroken
With these gifts of higher power, I've been chosen
Risk to see some hemoglobin
People criticize I'm egotistically stroking
I'm a just kid from Queens, a fan of Yashica and Tolkien
The things I do
Are far from few
I'm awful new at this though
I thought I grew
From what I knew
But that ain't true, I'm at an all time low
I'm facing today
I'm fighting for me while I struggle for pay
My senses are shaken, escaping the fray
I just want to flip to what's on the next page
Rage curdling inside my stomach isn't new
For I was raised by the backhand of my father to see truth
To quantify spectral analysis, dissecting radiation
A forceful childhood so then it pushed my education
Trials and tribulations often pave the way for greatness
It makes sense: a barrage expanding limitations
Hypothetically, your psyche morphed into dichotomous exchange
Sparked by pain, can't refrain from shredding patience
It's paper-thin
I'm drained from posing as a sycophant so f
But deep within
I know that every person has their place in l
But f*ck the rules; but keep the peace
But break the cage; bestill the beast
My indecisiveness, at best, debilitating
Better men than me, I've seen, appreciate duality and conquer
Heavy demons and then settle the disquiet
If people wondered what it's like, I'd ask for them to try it
Personified abomination: David and Goliath
The things I do
I hope they're far from true
I'm awful new at this though
I'm trying to view
In a different hue
I promise you that I won't lose control
I'm facing today
The old me is fading: I want him to stay
Don't want to be stuck here: two minds in a cage
I just want to skip to what's
Well, I feel a little out of touch with this reality; the neighborhood is shifting
I'm stagnant in development: the culture's new and different
I attempt to expedite my learning curve, but to impose a sudden shift in ideology
Is honestly absurd
All my friends are moving forward, while I'm frozen and inert
They retire home to bed, while my mind's on high alert
The work is what I focus on, eliminating hurt
At first, but nostalgia overwhelms in spurts
Of high intensity
Their turrets' attacking
Grenades in action, we planned to flank the opposition
Take their base in masses
Faces pass as we march forward
Lit some matches for these Axis assholes
Hatred to ashes: punch these scarlet fascists
Inevitably I have to face the Reaper and taxation
Bones and bruises aching but I'm proud of fighting for this nation
But what am I to do in this damnation? Frustration
Surrounded by these people but I'm stuck in isolation
The things I drew
I hoped they flew
I sunk into the world's fold
I thought I grew
From being black and blue
The story's skewed, don't hold what you've been sold
I'm facing today
People see brave, but I'm cold and afraid
What do you do when you can't find your way?
Well, all I can do is just turn the next page
