(INTRO) (Instrumental) (Verse 1) Yo…..depression ain’t my problem, nah, I ain’t dyin’, Lived dead inside my whole existence, complyin’. Mind races a million miles, emotions never crystalline, Ignored the feelin’s; mind never stopped, couldn’t realign. (Chorus) A masquerade I wear, hidin’ within the multitude, Voices echo in my dome, screamin’ with such amplitude. Antidepressants they prescribed, said they’d rectify, But depression, nah, that’s an erroneous alibi. (Verse 2) Pills they givin’, thinkin’ they comprehend the remedy, Brain whispers softly, “Oh, guess we’re in this new melody.” Medications changin’, feelin’ like a guinea’s plight, Addictions growin’, problems intensifyin’ overnight. (Bridge) Tablets unmanageable, alarms blarin’ in my auditory, Ignored all, just filled me with apprehension’s inventory. Lie, “Yeah, I’ll attempt my best,”—soul’s destroyin’ examination, Feelin’ wrecked because I’m caught in this endless complication. (Chorus) Masquerade I wear, hidin’ within the multitude, Voices echo in my dome, screamin’ with such amplitude. Antidepressants they prescribed, said they’d rectify, But depression, nah, that’s an erroneous alibi. (Verse 3) Tried every suggestion, heard them all in repetition, Sayin’, “Yeah, I’ll try that,” just to close the door’s admission. Words get tangled, unable to express my intention, Oversharin’ madness, caught in a vortex of contention. (Outro) Four days of madness, scared I’m spiraling insane, Overloaded ventin’, tryin’ to shatter this chain. All I need is to be heard, to fulfill my own need, Yet the world’s cacophony drowns the seed I must feed. (Chorus) Masquerade I wear, hidin’ within the multitude, Voices echo in my dome, screamin’ with such amplitude. Antidepressants they prescribed, said they’d rectify, But depression, nah, that’s an erroneous alibi. (END)
