Pulling Strings (feat. Jason Schmidt)
[00:13.17] They say all the world's a stage
[00:15.56] All the men and women merely got a part to play
[00:19.02] Am I the one pretending or is everybody fake
[00:22.48] Are we a little different or all we all the same
[00:27.51] Silver spoons, they fall
[00:29.64] Every single time I go to open up my mouth
[00:33.09] Do I make decisions or has that not been allowed
[00:36.54] Or am I just a vessel for someone else’s sound
[00:43.18] Am I a puppet in a dream
[00:46.64] Who closed his eyes to everything
[00:50.35] All the hands that point directions
[00:51.95] Open doors to good connections
[00:53.54] I’m a product of pulling strings
[00:57.28] But I swear I’m standing on the brink
[01:00.72] Of being who everyone thinks
[01:03.91] Without hands that point directions
[01:05.76] Open doors to good connections
[01:07.62] I’m a product of pulling strings
[01:13.20] I thought I got the gold
[01:15.06] But I was steps ahead of every starter pistol pulled
[01:18.26] Thought I was a winner but it turns out I’m a joke
[01:21.70] Don’t want my reputation up in smoke
[01:28.87] Am I a puppet in a dream
[01:32.06] Who closed his eyes to everything
[01:35.80] All the hands that point directions
[01:37.39] Open doors to good connections
[01:38.99] I’m a product of pulling strings
[01:42.44] But I swear I’m standing on the brink
[01:46.17] Of being who everyone thinks
[01:49.62] Without the hands that point directions
[01:51.49] Open doors to good connections
[01:53.07] I’m a product of pulling strings
[01:56.79] Exposing my real flaws
[01:59.98] Will come at a real cost
[02:03.70] I might be a damn fraud
[02:05.82] But at least I’m changing
[02:07.43] At least I am changing
[02:21.51] I am waking from the dream
[02:24.95] Open eyes to everything
[02:28.14] All the hands that point directions
[02:29.73] Open doors to good connections
[02:31.86] Oh from now on, I’ll be cutting strings
[02:35.57] I swear I’m standing on the brink
[02:38.76] Of being who everyone thinks
[02:42.74] I’m switching my perception
[02:44.08] Making meaningful connections
[02:45.94] Oh from now on, I’ll be cutting strings
