Project 86 - Set Me Up Lyrics
Right in front of me dropping another gameNow I watch your face as your eyes look downAway from my glanceBackstabbed as I hear the cracks drop smackI count the ways your little whispers swell to greet my dazeUnderground, so down, your scene above meBut now I see so clearlyI'm not down, I never could beAnd it's long past time for me to show youSpeak my mind in response to your condescending wayOf 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 eyesAnd I understand what it means to be"Ligit" in your eyes, not INor none of my "attempts" to be on the insideI'm not down, I never could beAnd it's time, this time I'll show youSet me upKnocked downKnocked down from your clique, youUnderstand how you rejected meI look at your face and weep for your "scene"So I ask myself what needs to be saidWhat now, what light can I shed?As I battle to fight down the angry thoughtThat's swelling to escape my headSo it's plain as day and you can seethat I have a right to explain my self to youSo don't look away or turn away or laugh awayBecause your "scene" is dead todayWe can't brign ourselves back down to this levelBecause you are no better than meDown with all that took us away from standing as one and living as oneAm I so different from you that you cannot dispel with your statusand 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 equaland clean this stain?
