This was where my depression ended, after a long two-year stint. I started back at the beginning, and worked my way back...

I live life less luxurious,
But if I get anywhere, it's gonna be a plus,
'Cause I go around town with no one to trust,
It's not gettin' better than this,
But that's how it is, when you're a darker side of white,
And you come up with lyrics so tight,
You might just do what I did, just give up and quit,
And then people start feelin' your s---,
They havn't had enough of it, people want you more and more,
Even get up on stage, and go on tour,
I'll probably did this until I get bored,
'Cause what I spit, will never get my throat sore,
Call it my driving force to be better and better,
Defeat all the challengers, crush all competitors,
And never let it get to my head, all said and done,
But I'm still standing on square one...

Chorus
Love triangles and family circles,
Made me who I am, it's all a miracle,
That I'm still here, and have not come undone,
When I start off at square one,
Sometimes it's a mystery, life's in misery,
But think of how good it can be,
If you start right here, and follow me,
It's the only way to live and breathe (The only way to live and breathe)...

When I seem to meet everyday people,
It seems like they try to look for an equal,
If you subtract the abstract, you won't multiply,
Add me in your life, you won't divide and die,
We all start somewhere, when no one cares,
I've been there, everyone just tears,
You apart, do you know where to start,
Or are you gonna let everybody hold onto your heart,
It's an opportunity to become savage beasts,
Let me show you how it is on the streets,
You can take heat for so long, and when you think your gone,
Pass out and wake up and see the dawn,
So hold on to what you got, but if not,
It's a premature way to make your life stop,
Don't make me force you, when I am holdin' onto the gun,
So, start right here, stand at square one...

Chorus

All I've heard lately, is making me see,
Why people need me more than anything,
They realize I'm real, and more original,
And that's why I'm above you all,
'Cause in my eyes, I psychoanalize,
What is the truth, there's none, it's all lies,
That's why I despise some of the things that you do,
End your life with nothin' to do,
Don't refuse to give up on your dreams,
Don't get used to the silent screams,
'Cause if things get too hard, I'm not too far,
I'll guide you to where you should start,
You're not Celine Dion, but your heart will go on,
Stay positive, live up and be strong,
Hold on to what you got, this is life's lesson,
To move to two, when you're already at square one...

Chorus (2x)
