Go set yourself on fire
As long as you know that it's not required
I'll be here till I get tired
Go set yourself on fire
Go set yourself on fire
As long as you know that it's not required
I'll be here till I get tired
Go set yourself on fire
This paper is my bible, this pen in my hand
I used to pray for my survival now I'm sketching my plans
And if it's safe to say my savior is this notebook, I level my stance
I'm sending twenty six letters with stamps
I understand you've had a better fate
Forget it, get it, go and get your center straight
I'm getting straight with my demons, watch me demonstrate
I've never been afraid of having fears
I know this life can put a Slug in you like Atmosphere
But now I'm hiking home with a microphone
Trapped as a widower enlight my soul
At night alone
I would like to fight the fight's bite
But it's bitter when I write my poems
Born and raised awake
Poorly fade away
Snore the day away
Sorely lay awake
Nights I know
What a better way to betterment
I better get a better fate or write my own
This is the answer key
Don't let it tear apart
Drumbeat up meet up with me
On an upbeat of my failing heart beat
But never let them tell you not to carry on
I've got one question all I need's an answer and I'm gone
Saying
Go set yourself on fire
As long as you know that it's not required
I'll be here till I get tired
Go set yourself on fire
And burn this whole place down
Go set yourself on fire
As long as you know that it's not required
I'll be here till I get tired
Go set yourself on fire
This song is my scripture
It flows through my veins
With every single note's fluctuation holding me
My only escape, I'm painting
With my religion prophesized on a tape deck
My explanation for how and why this makes sense
Life goes by fast, break necks
Like we did as children
Change swept
Divorce came
Names kept
Another new neighbor came and went, you can take my clothes
But you will never break my bones
I focus and I write it off of my self perception
Handle a little bit of pain if
I can just channel it into my self expression
Hate how we say goodbye
For the first time I had felt depression
I'm gonna spill my heart out
I'll go to hell confessing everything
The sidewalk has cracks I learned
That every one will tell a story like a raconteur
So if you chase me, try to capture my passion before it bursts
You can start your own fire, you don't have to burn
I'm saying
Go set yourself on fire
As long as you know that it's not required
I'll be here till I get tired
Go set yourself on fire
And burn this whole place down
Go set yourself on fire
As long as you know that it's not required
I'll be here till I get tired
Go set yourself on fire
And burn this whole place down
Burn this whole place down
Burn this whole place down
Burn this whole place down
Burn this whole place down
Burn this whole place down
Hey yo this paper is my bible
If I could start my own fire
I won't have to burn
If I could start my own fire
I won't have to burn
If I could start my own fire
I won't have to burn
Who says I can't take this whole place down?
I'm saying
If I could start my own fire
I won't have to burn
If I could start my own fire
I won't have to burn
If I could start my own fire
I won't have to burn
Who says I can't take this whole place down?
