Verse I

I feel like I’m a thousand feet under water

And I just can’t hold my breath any longer

My lungs are collapsing as I sing

The pressures building up inside of me

Pre-Chorus I

10,000 psi is building up inside my brain and I just can’t take it

Chorus I

There’s a part of me that just wants to explode, but I know it won’t

Make me stronger

There’s a part of me that just doesn’t want to go on living any longer.

They don’t understand, that what makes a man isn’t his

Accomplishments or a scholarship or any of the above

Its what’s in his heart

They should’ve known that from the start

Verse II

Some times it feels like the walls are crumbling around me

I wish people would stop shooting cannonballs at me

Everyday I give up another brick in this wall of expectations

I always feel like I’m letting someone down

It hurts so much

Pre-Chorus II

I feel the rocks falling at my feet

Is this defeat

Chorus II

There’s a part of me that just wants to explode, but I know it won’t

Make me stronger

There’s a part of me that just doesn’t want to go on living any longer.

They don’t understand, that what makes a man isn’t his

Accomplishments or a scholarship or any of the above

Its what’s in his heart

They should’ve known that from the start

Chorus III (repeat)

There’s a part of me that just wants to explode, but I know it won’t

Make me stronger

There’s a part of me that just doesn’t want to go on living any longer.

They don’t understand, that what makes a man isn’t his

Accomplishments or a scholarship or any of the above

Its what’s in his heart

They should’ve known that from the start
