Stones
Robb Nash Lyrics

Even if I broke down now with this so called cloud
Despite potential obstacles and setbacks represented by a metaphorical 'cloud', I will not give up.

Hanging over my head could I smoke out sound
Despite the situation's difficulties, I will try to stay positive and find a way forward.

I hit the wall when I think of it yeah like I mighta bit way to close
When I dwell too much on my problems, they seem overwhelming and insurmountable.

To the root of it
To the core or essence of the problem.

Like a schizophrenic terabit I wanna skip ahead a bit
I am feeling desperate and wish I could skip past the difficult present moments and into the future.

And see if this voice is legitimate
I am uncertain whether my inner voice is guiding me towards the right path or not.

Stay tuned cause demon number two is gonna hit you
Further problems or obstacles are forthcoming and I must be prepared for them.

So what you gonna do, what you gonna do
As new issues arise, the question remains whether I will choose to continue to fight or give up.

Open wounds are slowly closing
Although my emotional wounds are beginning to heal, it is a slow process.

Although my scars they still are showing
I may have progressed, but I am still carrying the emotional scars of what happened.

Cast all your stones like medication
Others are quick to judge and criticize, like throwing stones at someone, and I must take this criticism as a remedy to get better.

Break all my bonds I've contemplated
I am trying to break free from negative thought patterns and the constraints of my current situation.

These voices aren't gone but they're hesitating
Although I am making progress, I am still struggling with inner demons and uncertainties.

Death's gonna see why they shoulda kept me
In the face of adversity, I will persevere and prove to all that I am capable of overcoming death and struggle.

Cause you're gonna see demon's scream an apology
Once I overcome my inner demons and struggles, others who doubted me will see that their criticisms were unfounded.

It's fear that you're gonna hear clear
Others who judged me will realize that their criticisms were based on their own fears and insecurities.

If they ever set foot here or merely interfere
This is a warning to others who may try to impede my progress, whether physically or emotionally.

You wanna talk take your best shot
I am confident in myself and in my ability to handle criticism and obstacles.

Pick your spot on the clock, I'll be waiting here, tick, tock
I am confident and patient, and I am willing to wait for challenges to arise so I can face them head-on.

You're not my God, nah just another fraud
I am not beholden to others' expectations and judgments, and I see them as misguided.

So what you gonna do, what you gonna do
Others who seek to judge or criticize are put on notice that I am not to be underestimated or disrespected.

My backs to the wall, feel the cracks and the scars
Despite my struggles, I remain resilient and am willing to face whatever comes next.

As I fall to the floor and scream but they ain't listen at all
Despite my struggles and pleas for help, others may not fully comprehend what I am going through or offer assistance.

Does anybody really care, they just masking assault
Others may feign concern for my well-being, but their actions may indicate a deeper disregard or even harm.

Just another diagnosis they just jacking us all
Others may not fully comprehend or take seriously the mental health struggles of individuals facing similar challenges.

A swipe of the card and you promise my depression and anxiety
Others may offer quick-fix solutions to mental health problems, which may not address the underlying issues and mask deeper concerns.

Residing deep inside of me will leave my body quietly
I am skeptical of quick-fix solutions to mental health problems, as they may not fully address or overcome the underlying issues.

You cast lots and pills by the handful
Others may prescribe medications in a way that is not always thoughtful or considerate of the individual's needs and well-being.

How could you gamble on my life, now I can't handle
I am frustrated and resentful that others may make decisions about my mental health that have significant consequences for my well-being.

A normal day, cause I'm stuck on pharmaceuticals
I am frustrated that medications continue to play a significant role in my mental health, and I seek other ways to address and cope with my struggles.

They put me in a box like a cubicle, an animal
I feel confined and restricted by medications and other mental health treatments, as they do not allow me to fully express myself or address my underlying concerns.

Well this is what you made and I'm daring anyone of you to let me out the cage
I demand to be seen as a person with unique needs and struggles, and I challenge anyone to try to understand me and assist me in achieving wellness.
