[Verse 1-1]
Dm
Hi there Ren
It's been a little while
G5
Did you miss me?
You thought youâd buried me,
Dm
didn't you? Riskyâ¦
'Cause I always come back
G5
Deep down you know that
Dm
Deep down you know I'm always in periphery
Ren, aren't you pleased to see me?
G5
It's been weeks since we spoke, bro,
I know you need me
Dm
Youâre the sheep, I'm the shepherd
Not your place to lead me
G5
Not your place to be biting off the hand that feeds me
[Verse 1-2]
Dm
Hi Ren,
A
Iâve been taking some time to be distant
Bb
Iâve been taking some time to be still
F5
I'vе been taking some time to be by mysеlf since my
Dm
therapist told me I'm ill
A
And I've been making some progress lately,
Bb
and I've learnt some new coping skills
F5
So I haven't really needed you much, man
Dm
I think we need to just step back and chill
[Verse 1-3]
G5
Ren, you sound more insane than I do
Dm
You think that those doctors are really there to guide you?
Been through this a million times
G5 Dm
Your civilian mind is so perfect at always being lied to
Okay, take another pill, boy!
G5
Drown yourself in the sound of white noise
Dm
Follow this tenstep program, rejoice!
G5
All your problems will be gone! Fucking dumb boy
[Verse 1-4]
Dm
Nah, mate, this time it's different man,
A
trust me
Bb
I feel like things might be falling in place
F5
And my music's been kinda doing bits too
Dm
Like I actually might do something great
And when I'm gone,
A
maybe I'll be remembered
Bb
For doing something special with myself
F5
That's why I don't think that we should talk,
man
'Cause when you're with me,
Dm
it never seems to help
[Verse 1-5]
You think that you can amputate me?
I am you, you are me, you are I, I am we
We are one, split in two, that makes one,
so you see:
You got to kill you if you wanna kill me
Dm
I'm not left over dinner,
Iâm not scraps on the side
Oh,
G5
your music is thriving? Delusional guy!
Dm
Where's your top ten hit? Where's your interview with
Oprah?
G5
Where are your Grammy's Ren? Nowhere!
[Verse 1-6]
Dm
Yeah, but,
A
my music's not commercial like that
I never chased numbers,
Bb
statistics or stats
I never write hooks for the radio
F5
They never even play me,
Dm
so why would I concern myself with that?
A
But my music is really connecting
Bb
And the people who find it respect it
And for me, that's enough
F5
âCause this life's been tough so it gives me a purpose I
Dm
can rest in
[Verse 1-7]
Man, you sound so pretentious!
G5
Ren, your music is so selfcentered
Dm G5
No one wants to hear another song about how much you hate
yourself, trust me
Dm
You should be so lucky,
having me inside you to guide you,
G5
Remind you to manage expectations
Dm
Provide you perspective, that thing you neglected,
I get it
G5
You wanna be a big deal,
Dm
next Jimi Hendrix? Forget it
[Verse 1-8]
Man, it's not like that
G5
Man, it's just like that, I'm inside you,
you twat!
Dm
No, it's not, man you're wrong,
when I write I belong
G5
Let me break the fourth wall by acknowledging this song:
Dm
Ren sits down, has a stroke of genius
G5
He wants to write a song that was not done previous
Dm
A battle with his subconscious,
Eminem did it
G5
Played on guitar? Plan B did it!
[Verse 1-9]
Dm
Man you're not original, you criminal,
ripoff artist
G5
The pinnacle of your success is stealing other people's
Dm
material
Ren, mate, we've heard it all before
Oh,
G5
"She sells seashells on the sea shore"
Dm
Fuck you! I don't need you,
A
I don't need to hear this
Bb
'Cause I'm fine by myself, I'm a genius!
F5
And I will be great, and I will make waves,
Dm
and I'll shake up the whole world beneath us
[Verse 1-10]
That's right, speak your truth!
G5
Your fucking god complex leaks out of you
Dm
It's refreshing to actually hear you say it!
G5
Instead of downplay it
âUgh,
music is all about the creative process and if people can
find something to
Relate to within that,
then that's just a bonusâ
[Verse 1-11]
Dm
Fuck you! I'ma fucking kill you, Ren
G5
Well, fucking kill me, then! Let's fucking have you,
Ren
Dm
I'ma do it, watch me prove it,
who are you to doubt my music?
A
âCause I call the shots,
I choose if you die
Yeah,
Bb
I call the shots and so I choose who survives
F5
I'll tie you up in knots when I lock you inside
News flash
[Bridge]
D5
I was created at the dawn of creation
Eb5
I am temptation
E5
I am the snake in Eden
I am the reason for treason
F5
Beheading all kings,
Gb5
I am sin with no rhyme or reason
G5 Ab5
Sun of the morning, Lucifer, Antichrist
A5
Father of lies, Mestophales
Bb5 B5
Truth in a blender, deceitful pretender
C5
The banished avenger,
Db5
the righteous surrender
D5 D5b5 Db5b5 C5b5
When standing in front of my solar eclipse
D5
My name,
D5b5 Db5b5 C5b5
it is stitched to your lips, so you see
D5 D5b5 Db5b5
I won't bow to the will of a mortal,
C5b5 D5
feeble and normal
D5b5 Db5b5 C5b5
You wanna kill me? I'm eternal,
D5
immortal
Eb5 E5
I live in every decision that catalysed chaos
F5
That causes division
Gb5
I live inside death,
G5
the beginning of ends
Ab5 A5 Bb5 B5
I am you, you are me, I am you, Ren!

[Verse 2-1]
Dm
Hi Ren,
A
Iâve been taking some time to be distant
Bb
Iâve been taking some time to be still
F5
Iâve been taking some time to be by myself and I've
Dm
spent half my life ill
A
But just as sure as the tide starts turning
Bb
Just as sure as the night has dawn
F5
Just as sure as the rainfall soon runs dry when you stand
Dm
in an eye of a storm
[Verse 2-2]
A
I was made to be tested and twisted
Bb
I was made to be broken and beat
I was made by His hand,
F5 Dm
it's all part of His plan that I stand on my own two feet
A
And you know me, my will is eternal
Bb
And you know me, you've met me before
F5
Face to face with a beast, I will rise from the east,
Dm
and I'll settle on the ocean floor
[Verse 2-3]
A
And I go by many names also
Bb
Some people know me as hope
F5
Some people know me as the voice that you hear when you
Dm
loosen the noose on the rope
A
And you know how I know that I'll prosper?
Bb
'Cause I stand here beside you today
F5
I have stood in the flames that cremated my brain and I
Dm
didn't once flinch or shake
[Verse 2-4]
A
So cower at the man I've become
Bb
When I sing from the top of my lungs
That I won't retire,
F5
I'll stand in your fire
Dm
Inspire the meek to be strong
A
And when I am gone, I will rise
Bb
In the music that I left behind
F5
Ferocious, persistent, immortal like you
Weâre a coin with two different sides
[Break]
Dm
Oooohoohoohoohoohoohooooh

Oohoohoohoohoohoohooooh
Bb F5 C/E G5 A5
Oohoohoohoohoohoohoohooooh

Oooohoooohooh oohoohoohoohoohoohooh
[Outro]
When I was seventeen years old,
I shouted out into an empty room
Into a blank canvas that I would defeat the forces of evil
And for the next ten years of my life I suffered the
consequences...
With autoimmunity illness, and psychosis
As I got older,
I realized there were no real winners
And there were no real losers in psychological warfare
But there were victims and there were students
It wasnât David versus Goliath,
it was a pendulum
Eternally swaying from the dark to the light
And the more intensely that the light shone,
the darker the shadow it casts
It was never really a battle for me to win,
it was an eternal dance
And like a dance, the more rigid I became,
the harder it got
The more I cursed my clumsy footsteps,
the more I struggled
So I got older
And I learned to relax, and I learned to soften,
and that dance got easier
It is this eternal dance that separates human beings from
angels
From demons, from gods
And I must not forget, we must not forget,
that we are human beings
