Higher knowledge engulfs me
'cause the blast of fate
a lesson to my eyes
concerned and overwhelmed theirs were of fear
you're livin' so empty inside
and yet it burns so akward this time

it's something with my pride lies
i cannot hide my true side
and maybe in distress i can still come out laughing
that's the way i am

this little boy proud of helping those in need
but he's not me but just maybe he could be
i can see it now
because i'm a hero to his eyes
temporarily blind
this immature kid
a spirit as well a motherfuckin' angel
hiding by helping
and wanting to understand

me tears a waterfall of acid cries from his eyes
i need to recognize it's meant to be
i know

it's something with my pride lies
i cannot hide my true side
and maybe in distress i can still come out laughing
that's the way i am

am i hard to recognize
what do i need to realize
why can't i see with my own fuckin' eyes
what do i need to see
see

it's something with my pride lies
i cannot hide my true side
and maybe in distress i can still come out laughing
that's the way i am

am i hard to recognize
what do i need to realize
can't i see with my own fuckin' eyes
what do i need to see
