Idle Lyrics by Christian Rey

Freedom Cage

2018

Take away my idols, take away my idols
Take away the lies keeping me from reading my bible
Show me something different, show me something vital
Show me how to grasp your love which Im entitled
Cause Ive been stuck, in painful cycles
Ya Ive been stuck, in feeling idle
Cause Ive been stuck, in painful cycles
Ya Ive been stuck, in feeling idle
Don't write me as worthless, cause I just don’t look as perfect, as the image in your head
So Im going to manage knowing you won't see my vantage so take advantage instead
I ain't playing the victim, I’ve just observed that our system dislikes the way that I think
Id say lets break the norm and take my hand climb aboard but you might decide to sink
Im tired of the damage from the heart that you've been guarding
Loves our native language but you actin' like its foreign
I was thinking out the box but now you got me trapped in
I still got so much on my plate, I still feel like Im starvin'
Ain't that ironic Im honest when I say I don't feel like enough
Cause if I was you'd build trust, not turn to dust when its tough
Sorry I couldn't meet your expectations, but then again how could I?
Sorry Im not bigger, not stronger, not taller, I
Always seemed to come up short, at least thats how it feels
I always seem to feel so torn, and that just feels too real
Cause these thoughts are cancerous, tryna use force to balance’em
And I can’t seem to balance all my chemical imbalances
So here I am, lost again, with my face to the ground
With my tears and my fears from the years all around
Take away my idols, take away my idols
Take away the lies keeping me from reading my bible
Show me something different, show me something vital
Show me how to grasp your love which Im entitled
Cause Ive been stuck, in painful cycles
Ya Ive been stuck, in feeling idle
Cause Ive been stuck, in painful cycles
Ya Ive been stuck, in feeling idle
Feels like Im losing it all
And losing my mind
Cause nothing rings when you call
Feels like Im blind
All these thoughts ain't new to me
Still can’t tell if its you or me
Best believe Im gonna freak
If you ever come back try and ruin me
Feeling free fearing God not a man, understand my plan
Is to have the same God who died for me
Be the same one saying he proud of me
So day by day Im taking it
My past Im regretting it
My future I dream of it
The present I pray in it
Feeling like I can't progress
My chest and head just can't connect
Need a rest and need a break, before I break I need to take
My mind off you at 2am
How I wish we never spent
That time alone now I regret
Not saying no when I had the chance
So now Im building prisons when I should be building bridges
Cause I rather be making bars than have to make a difference so
So here I am lost again with my face to the ground
With my tears and my fears from the years all around
Take away my idols, take away my idols
Take away the lies keeping me from reading my bible
Show me something different, show me something vital
Show me how to grasp your love which Im entitled
Cause Ive been stuck, in painful cycles
Ya Ive been stuck, in feeling idle
Cause Ive been stuck, in painful cycles
Ya Ive been stuck, in feeling idle
Feels like Im losing it all
And losing my mind
Cause nothing rings when you call
Feels like Im blind
