Story Behind The Song

Society, Friends, and partners trying to change the way you are to fit their needs and wants. Many of our friends have split up or gone through divorce, lost jobs, etc. because of expectations they could not meet or conform to. Not so much bigotry or prejudice, as just simple conformity to their specific expectations. NOTE: As it is with every song we produce in house, we can modify them to fit your needs or send stems in uncompressed formats.

Song Description

Tired of people and society trying to conform others, who do contribute to society, but not in the way they want or would like you to. Society, Friends, and partners trying to change the way you are to fit their needs and wants. Many of our friends have split up or gone through divorce, lost jobs, etc. because of expectations they could not meet or conform to. Not so much bigotry or prejudice, as just simple conformity to their specific expectations. "What are we supposed to be?" if not ourselves. If you like a person, why would you try to change that person, if that person makes you happy and is happy him/herself. As it is with every song we produce in house, we can modify them to fit your needs or send stems in uncompressed formats.

Lyrics

BOX ME IN
By Cradle Fallz

VERSE1:
DO YOU HEAR ME? HEY! HEY! ARE YOU LISTENING?
I'M CLEARING A PATH, OPEN MINDS, INVITED BECAUSE THEY'RE GIFTED
SICK OF THE FEELING YOU HATED, REMAIN INEBRIATED
STAYING INTOXICATED, MY FREEDOM'S INVADED BY NEIGHBORS
SAYING, "THAT RAP CRAP'S CONTAGIOUS, WHY'S THAT BASS SO LOUD?"
IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, GO INSIDE, GET OUT MY FACE RIGHT NOW.
KEEP WALKING, YES, KEEP WALKING
IT'S NOT A CRIME TO BE UNIQUE, GRAP YOUR NUTS IF YOU LOST THEM.
THEN SAY....


CHORUS:
TELL ME, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO BE?
ANOTHER SPINELESS COWARD AFRAID TO SPEAK HIS MIND
TELL ME, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO BE?
SOMEONE WHO FOLLOWS THE IN CROWD BUT HAS NO SPINE
TELL ME, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO BE?
A PERSON CLAMMING THEY LOVE YOU, BUT YOU'RE ALL ALONE AT THE END.
THEY WANT TO BOX YOU IN, THEY WANT TO BOX YOU IN,
THEY WANT TO TAKE AWAY WHAT'S SPECIAL, AND MAKE YOU JUST LIKE THEM.


VERSE2:
DO YOU SEE ME? HEY! HEY! ARE YOU LOOKING?
I SEE YOU TRACKING ME, I KNOW YOU'RE ATTACHED TO ME BECAUSE I'M CROOKED
DRESSED IN A BLACK SHIRT, NO LOGO, NIKE SHOES, NO POLOS,
ON THE FRONT PORCH WITH CHANCLAS, KICKING IT WITH MY CHOLOS
AINT CHANGING, BUT WE SHOULD TAKE THE TIME TO FINALLY FACE IT,
PEOPLE ARE DRAWN TO MY UNIQUENESS, THAT'S WHY THEY CHASE IT
AINT NO CLONING THIS ATTITUDE, SARCASM THAT RATTLES YOU, BUT YET
STILL THEY CATEGORIZE ME COMPARING ME TO OTHER DUDES.

CHORUS:

VERSE3:
I KNOW YOU FEEL ME, YES, YES, YOU DO!
THESE WOMEN ARE QUICK TO FIND YOUR WEAKNESS AND TRAP YOU INSIDE THE CUBE
BUT IT'S NOT RUBIK'S, THEY'RE ASKING YOU TO CHANGE THE WAY THAT YOU DRESS
AND OF COARSE YOU WERE TEMPTED, BECAUSE YOU'RE LOVING ALL THAT GOOD SEX
THE CHAINS ATTACHED AND YOU CAN'T ESCAPE IT BECAUSE YOU'RE TRAPPED
SHE BURIES THE THOUGHT OF LOVE INSIDE YOUR THINKING CAP
JUDGEMENT IS WAY TOO CLOUDY, THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE DONE,
SHE TRIED TO BOX ME IN AND LOCK ME DOWN, I AINT THE ONE.

CHORUS:
