Lyrics Jhameel - Lion's Den

well i was just about that age
cursing at the world through a lion's cage
telling myself i was the victim
young intuition
always seemed to lead that way

tell me why every time
i look in my eyes
all of the things i've always hated in myself come alive
i'm looking up heading down feeling like i'll die
all of the things i feel inside my beating heart feed my head lies

i don't wanna lose myself
i don't even know how to not be my own enemy
i don't wanna lose my health
i don't even know where to run from my own memories

but i was just a boy back then
roaring in the midst of a lion's den
everything i said was a fiction
but who would even listen
i don't really need no friends

tell me why every time
i look in my eyes
all of the things i've always hated in myself come alive
i'm looking up heading down feeling like i'll die
all of the things i feel inside my beating heart feed my head lies

i don't wanna lose myself
i don't even know how to not be my own enemy
i don't wanna lose my health
i don't even know where to run from my own memories

i'm falling for my own lies
saying that i'm strong but then i'm
hiding from my past life
scared of seeing who i've been

i don't
i don't wanna run
