I don't mean to interrupt
But can you tell me what's corrupt?
'Cause I can't tell anymore
Can you teach me how to act?
'Cause I can't seem to find the facts
Or even what I'm being convicted for
Can you teach me how to write
To sight, some way to fight
As we cling to the wreckage of the old indictment
For those who reap but did not sow before
Might I be the one to shun the grace of the sun?
And brave the storm who's weather might be just the run I need
To bring you back from not far off the shore
♪
Ignorance, seems the perfect medicine at the starting line
But don't rush me as I breath it in again
Even though it bites
We're in a state of under-appreciation
What seems the lesser of the two
What I have and what I don't
What more I need to feel at home
Seems the more I have to lose
This world is enough for me
Is yours enough for you?

It's a wonder we stay with our heads above the water
And I'm hard-pressed to have my way
'Cause despite all the actions
Your court has brought to order
I'll tread before I give you away
Can you teach me how to write, to sight, some way to fight
As we cling to the wreckage of the old indictment?
For those who reap but did not sow before
Might I be the one to shun the grace of the sun?
And brave the storm who's weather might be just the run I need
To bring you back from not far off the shore

People causing me to see what I can be
I'm 'bout to be the one that tells you right from wrong
So go and hide and go and seek some knowledge
That'll make better priorities for your mental health
Put money on the bottom and put family on the top shelf
Please don't let me interrupt while I create something corrupt
Devil and deal and find out what my conviction is
Please don't teach me how to act if ignorance is how you act
In accordance with the challenges you faced
My information's fundamental to the entire nation
Trying to give minds cardiopulmonary resuscitation
It's too late now, for some they'll stay as vegetation
For the rest I'd prescribe deinstitutionalization
This position's what we're in 'cause of ignorance
And I don't think I'm strong enough to avoid me using an illusion
It's confusion, it's what I use to lose myself in your hypocrisy
Ignorance, seems the perfect medicine at the starting line
Don't rush me as we breath it in again
And although it bites
We're in a state of under-appreciation
What seems the lesser of the two
What I have and what I don't
What more I need to feel at home
Seems the more I have to lose
This world is enough for me
Is yours enough for you?
