Set Me Up — текст песни (Project 86)

Right in front of me dropping another game
Now I watch your face as your eyes look down
Away from my glance
Backstabbed as I hear the cracks drop smack
I count the ways your little whispers swell to greet my daze
Underground, so down, your scene above me
But now I see so clearly
I`m not down, I never could be
And it`s long past time for me to show you

Speak my mind in response to your condescending way
Of placing me below your feet
"It`s not what you know, it`s who you know"
But all I know now is you live for the show"
Smiles in my face with smirks in your eyes
And I understand what it means to be
"Legit" in your eyes, not I
Nor none of my "attempts" to be on the inside
I`m not down, I never could be
And it`s time, this time I`ll show you

Set me up
Knocked down
Knocked down from your clique, you
Understand how you rejected me
I look at your face and weep for your "scene"

So I ask myself what needs to be said
What now, what light can I shed?
As I battle to fight down the angry thought
That`s swelling to escape my head
So it`s plain as day and you can see
that I have a right to explain my self to you
So don`t look away or turn away or laugh away
Because your "scene" is dead today
We can`t bring ourselves back down to this level
Because you are no better than me
Down with all that took us away from standing as one and living as one
Am I so different from you that you cannot dispel with your status and
look at my face?
Am I so distant from you that I cannot break free from this stereotype
today?
Am I so separate from you that you cannot regard me as equal and
clean this stain?
