After Me Lyrics

You were thinking that you could handle stormy weather

With so many people wishing they were living better

The rain was pouring in, our soggy mess was multiplying

I had to speak, I spoke, but you laughed and called it "crying"

Right there and then it occurred to me, you were after me.

You're rally crying, truth denying and you're pushing buttons,

We work for nothing all the while, boy you think you're something

You got the squeeze while Backing people in the corner,

When education speaks, it bonds, yeah it makes us stronger

I just happen to express myself, now you're after me

Just want to keep on living free, but you're after me

It was all in my head, they said, when I screamed beware

Yet here they come, after me.

I know I tow the line with my heart sometimes

So here they come, after me.

You were thinking that you could handle stormy weather

Grabbing / anyone you want, because you think you're better

The flood is pouring in, our soggy mess is multiplying

I had to speak, I spoke, Now you wanna see my dying

I can't believe you were chosen to lead

When your life is a circus that's run by the fleas

I won't retrieve like a dog on a lead

Who gets choked out while trying to please

You can't keep me down for long, so come on after me

It was all in my head about them wanting me dead

Cause here they come after me

You know I tow the line with my heart sometimes

And here they come after me.

Assimilated beyond belief

Still not enough when I hit the streets

Hoodie up, you're on my tail I see

He riles them up / when he speaks

Like a pack of wolves / that long to eat

Anyone that looks like me

Now tell me how

It was all in my head, they said, when I screamed beware

Yet here they come, after me.

I know I tow the line with my heart sometimes

So here they come, after me.
