You're Lost

[Verse 1]
I was born in a system that don’t care about you or me
Built on rules and numbers
Not truth or honesty
People move in herds
Doin’ what they’re told
Heads down
Eyes shut
Souls bought and sold
Then there’s men like me
Yeah we move off-script
Don’t follow dotted lines
Don’t ask for permission slips
So please don’t question how I walk this road
I ain’t lost—I just won’t carry your load

[Chorus]
I won’t carry your cross
I got scars of my own (yeah)
Every step that I take
I cut through stone
You can chain up my hands
But you can’t claim my throne
I won’t carry your cross
I walk alone
I won’t carry your cross
Your fear
Your throne
I was built to break out
Not to bring you home

[Verse 2]
You want quiet compliance
Neat little frames
Stack us in silence
Then number our names
But I’ve seen too much
I can’t unlearn that sight
Kids growin’ old at twelve
Tryin’ to sleep at night
So when you say “fall in line
” I just laugh (ha)
Your map’s too small for this kind of path
If the price of your peace is my backbone sold
Keep your comfort
I won’t carry your load

[Bridge]
You call it chaos
I call it choice (choice)
You raise your voice
I raise my voice (my voice)
If freedom feels like walkin’ alone in the cold
Then I’ll freeze before I bend to your mold

[Chorus]
I won’t carry your cross
I got scars of my own
Every step that I take
I cut through stone
You can chain up my hands
But you can’t claim my throne
I won’t carry your cross
I walk alone
I won’t carry your cross
Your fear
Your throne
I was built to break out
Not to bring you home
