Lyrics

Break

[Intro]

I'm so wrapped up inside my head

One last life that I'm up against

No escaping where I've been

I wouldn't expect you to understand

[Verse 1]

My tendencies are underneath and provoked

Got they necks on the floor and I got my knees on they throat

But they don't need any smoke

I pray to God but I don't need any hope

I can't snap if y'all just leave me alone

[Pre-Chorus]

So when I'm looking for the break

I get inside of my own brain

Something about it is unsafe

I can't breathe

Hope that someday I'll escapе

Once I get out of my own way

[Chorus]

I'm so wrapped up insidе my head

One last life that I'm up against

No escaping where I've been

I wouldn't expect you to understand

To understand

I wouldn't expect you to understand

(Yeah, yeah)

[Verse 2]

I feel like a photo in a broken frame

Hope that all this broken glass will take the pain away

I get trapped inside myself, feel like a prison stay

There's another cloud again, the future looks like rain

[Pre-Chorus]

So when I'm looking for the break

I get inside of my own brain

Something about it is unsafe

I can't breathe

Hope that someday I'll escape

Once I get out of my own way

[Chorus]

I'm so wrapped up inside my head

One last life that I'm up against

No escaping where I've been

I wouldn't expect you to understand

Understand

I wouldn't expect you to under—

[Bridge]

When I'm looking for the break

I get inside of my own brain

Something about it is unsafe

I can't breathe

Hope that someday I'll escape

Once I get out of my own way

I'm so wrapped up inside my head

One last life that I'm up against

No escaping where I've been

[Chorus]

I'm so wrapped up inside my head

One last life that I'm up against

No escaping where I've been

I wouldn't expect you to understand

Understand

I wouldn't expect you to understand

[Outro]

I wouldn't expect you to understand
