Heart of an Artist Lyrics

by Iris

[Verse 1]

You place your cards on the desk, but they rip it up in your face

They take you like a remote and control your fate

You can't take it and the heat starts to tackle your heart

But they don't care about the source

They just want you to fall apart

[Pre-Chorus]

So stand up, let them know how you really feel

How can they push you if they don't know how to take the steel?

As you rise from your heels and they leave, just say, "Go away"

[Chorus]

I don't fucking need you anymore, wave goodbye to the chores

Take off the cuffs off and breathe new life

Take it from the men who denied as they tried to survive, but the enemy began to ignite

The rage written on the walls, they were burning

They can't stop me when I crawl, now I'm running

This is the heart of an artist

[Verse 2]

You give them art made of gold, but they slice it down with embrace

They take it back to their hive and eradicate

You feel beaten when they shriek so you break down and cry

But they will fight because they use and abuse you from the start

[Pre-Chorus]

So stand up, let them know that you will not be swayed

How can they know how you feel when they don’t appreciate?

As you rise from your heels and they leave, just say, "Go away"

[Chorus]

I don't fucking need you anymore, wave goodbye to the chores

Take off the cuffs off and breathe new life

Take it from the men who denied as they tried to survive, but the enemy began to ignite

The rage written on the walls, they were burning

They can't stop me when I crawl, now I'm running

This is the heart of an artist

[Verse 3]

Hold on onto your heart, don't let them take it from you

Just reignite what was your thrive, show them that you're alive

In my heart, I grieve for the artist I believe to be sent down from the sky

Only to be met with shadows they're hidden in the meadows poisoning all of the rye

Maybe we can meet in the middle, enough with the riddles

Treat them as they would treat you

They came to help your souls deliver a smile through the tolls

Isn't that what you would do?

[Chorus]

I don't fucking need you anymore, wave goodbye to the chores

Take off the cuffs and breathe new life

Take it from the men who denied as they tried to survive, but the enemy began to ignite

I can taste the charge from the core, so we shout, "Fuck them all"

Make them know that you're not pushed around, let them know you are divine

Keep a kind state of mind, and speak it through the art of sound

The rage written on the wall, they were burning

They can't stop me when I crawl, now I'm running

This is the heart of an artist
