Pandora’s Box
[Verse 1: Drewsome]
Every night the sun sets on our regrets and we digress from all our stress, and we confess to these threats but nether less we place our bets and just forget
Our thoughts are constantly oppressed, we've been undressed by the feds and fake caressed, our life gets reset and more complex
And they ask us why we have no respect
It’s a two way thing and you may not bring it to the table
Like Cain & Abel, once bros but you rocked me with betrayal
I didn't survive, your shot was fatal
Don't try and say our story’s a fable cause it's too scary to label as playful, we can make up on the first of April
Fooled me twice, man, your touch was glacial
I've been tryna tour around the states, yeah, just to see the look on your face, yeah, now who was easy to replace? Yeah, you're the reason my heart's filled with hate, yeah!
And you do not know me, I'm not the same person
I'm bursting with cursing 'till I close the curtain
The serpent is lurking feasting upon virgins
Disguised as a surgeon, fuck that cause it’s nursing
And it’s telling you that it will heal all your pain
Hands you a box and wants you to awake
All of the spirits from the darkest of space
And he tells you its harmless but you've unleashed carnage
Upon your life, upon the night, but you were so tempted you did it despite knowing that you were about to release fright
You’re the reason why things aren't so bright
[Hook: Mike Artuso & Michelle Wisnewski]
Take a look inside my box, you'll understand why it's locked
I’ll be dammed if you're not shocked, take a look inside my box
Search every corner, unleash the horror
There's no order, non-stop torture
Take a look inside my box, take a look inside my box
Take a look inside my box, you'll understand why it's locked
I'll be dammed if you're not shocked, take a look inside my box
Search every corner, unleash the horror
There's no order, non-stop torture
Take a look inside my box, take a look inside my box
[Verse 2: Drewsome]
I was 12 years old when my parents divorced
And I couldn't help the feeling it's like it was forced
I screamed and cried, and I wondered why
My music is my life underlined
But I don't get why I put everything on the line
I wonder why all my friends resign
Then I put my artwork before them
I've been stripped and tortured, and condemned
Of my wrong doings, it's more than two things
It's like a grouping, this isn't excluding
Everything I've done wrong in my life
I'm assuming improving was the guide
But I've been nothing but deaf and blind
Everything I need has been here this whole time
So I lock my door and I write my rhymes
I've been so isolated, what's outside?
This weight on my back could break my spine
But I gotta stay strong and continue to climb
Because I can't afford to fall behind
I'm not done 'till I'm satisfied
I'm not done until I decide, I can't believe suicide is on my mind
To summarize I'm in overdrive and I won't stop going 'till I'm known worldwide
And I won't stop going 'till the check has arrived
This money single handedly ruined my life
Yeah, a single hand with 5 different fingers
I've been crying so much I made 9 different rivers
What do you see in me? Cause I see a sinner
Look into my mind, you'll probably quiver
My heart doesn't even compare to a blizzard
"Drew, you've jacked a killing they should call you the ripper!"
But at what cost? I've been torn apart
Pull by my limbs and cut me down the middle
Cut me sideways with those rusty old scissors
My life should be a movie, genre: Horror and Thriller
This kind of pain makes you wanna reconsider
Will you starve yourself or will you eat dinner?
When you've been given evil, yeah, you're the transmitter
You feel like you might as well just drown yourself in liquor
[Hook: Mike Artuso & Michelle Wisnewski]
Take a look inside my box, you'll understand why it's locked
I'll be dammed if you're not shocked, take a look inside my box
Search every corner, unleash the horror
There's no order, non-stop torture
Take a look inside my box, take a look inside my box
Take a look inside my box, you'll understand why it's locked
I'll be dammed if you're not shocked, take a look inside my box
Search every corner, unleash the horror
There's no order, non-stop torture
Take a look inside my box, take a look inside my box
[Verse 3: Drewsome]
Under my skin I'm a menace below, but I'm the man of this house and I'll defend it as so
I gotta look out for my mother and save my little brother
I won't let them fall with me into the gutter
I'm too far in so lemme just suffer, but I'll do what it takes to keep you all from going under
I'll always do what's best for my family and team
Yeah, Bonnie and Clyde that's Anthony and me
I kept skeletons in my closet but I put 'em on the shelf
It's all my fault, I did it to myself
There's no one I can frame or blame for this hell
I treat it like a game, I'm ashamed of myself
Humiliate and irritate, I do it all with no help
I wanna create and motivate for the people who have felt
This same kind of pain that makes me wanna melt
I just degrade and disgrace everything they upheld
