ed - leopard's skin lyrics

(verse 1)
people don’t connect with me
cuz these songs are my healing
in each verse i’m expressing my sentiments
how can you understand what i mean when you don’t know me?
in addition to this i’m not your average teen
i don’t party, i don’t smoke, i don’t drink
if a couple hits can make me elite
then you better hope i loiter in straight edge society
i’m the monkey in the middle being bullied
i’m going towards red rover but i’m not coming over
i don’t give in to peer pressure
cuz if i did
i’d write about getting drunk or p-ssing joints to eva-nesce my uncharted thoughts
maybe i’m not as special as i think
i receive multiple ko’s but i forgo to leave the ring
the consideration of giving up isn’t something i believe
modifying who i am will vitiate my dignity
can you empathize when you despise the body in which you were given?
the only reason to be ambitious is so you don’t fall into the abysses
wishing the positions could be shifted
a picture is worth a thousand words but the bags under my eyes say a million
slap on a filter and see the perception of yourself alter
having no desire to communicate cuz nobody can decipher your roars

(chorus)2x
there’s not many people like me
i’m unique and i’ll tell myself that til the day i see
somebody who has the same fingerprints
i’m a leopard and i can’t change my skin

(verse 2)
i’m just like everyone
these scars, stretch marks and blemishes don’t make up my natural image
perfection is a privilege
since when was reviewing your reflection the day you see a repugnant presence?
digits on the scale make you put your tail between your legs
each step you take has an imprint of your dna
every lonely road was once enclosed by you
every person who evacuated suddenly enters
your face is your best defense mechanism
your smile is the symbolism of the realism
i recognize the oppression in your eyes
you ceded too quick
you continue construing the cracks that you can’t interpret
the problem isn’t you
it’s internal
these lurid torments won’t be eternal but suss you have to k!ll the clam to get the pearl
you’re beautiful but when someone tells you otherwise
you will never know how painful it is
the rejections compile and you break down into a pool of self loathing
holding onto the only piece of hope
and that’s yourself
in moments when you can’t hold your own you decide to pull the sword from the stone
for aspiration
people gander at you like an animal
well
you’re a majestic leopard
can’t change your skin but you can accept it

(verse 3)
people ignore the concrete details
they drive into your skull with their drills
i want to invoke all the things you wanna evoke
revoke them till you provoke and say the words
don’t atone for being overly overt
be glad that part of your life is over
the covert words roll off the tongue
you no longer have to bite it
deject everyone who’s a sadist
return to the healthy shape and drain the hatred
the drain is clogged from the re-uptake
the complications can’t be corresponded
the pain became second nature
you’ve become unresponsive
negativity tolerance is nonexistent
evil forms from their cores and awaits its target to emotionally murder
it’s laborious to get back onto shore when someone is grabbing you from under
i need a counselor to construct my life
make me see the light in the night
to evince love without the spite
to tell me that i’ll be alright
to notify me the time for fight or flight
to sincerely say they love me regardless of the way i look
this world would be a preferred intention if we treated everyone with respect and didn’t mention imperfections to feel powerful
so whether or not you want to believe it
people are conceited
that explains why the boomerang stabs them in back with multitude
can’t escape the magnitude of attitude
it’s always surrounding you
in public, in school, at work
even
when you look into the mirror
wishing what you see would disappear
like a ghost whispering secretes
when the image is crystal clear you pin point ways to point out what doesn’t appear
knowin you’re an emotional wreck
it doesn’t help that your life is a mess
but that part of your life is over with
that bliss that was lost when you were a kid
is back in your life again

(outro)
it doesn’t matter how much adipose we have
the freckles, the pimples, the black heads, the color of our skin
its okay to be different
be you
don’t be what people define to be as normal
people will look to slaughter your mindset but it’s your job to be better then them
we don’t know what’s going on in their lives
for all we know what they could be saying could be lies
they just want to be whimsical and recapture their faded ego that is pointless
they want to destroy us because they think they’re an impeccable creature
pain has a cure but it’s very difficult to obtain
arrogance will never go away
but one day
you’ll realize this and you’ll learn to live life and be content
keep up the progress and don’t let anyone or anything get in the way
