BA MAN BASH (Stay With Me)
It’s true, you’ve surrendered yourself
Made up your mind and you’re done with it
When your worst memories tell you to end it all
Your entire being just a blur now
Angry at the mother who has given birth
You came to this world without an invite
Now you wanna leave without an permit or a fight
No one entered this life of yours
Your life hung on to a thread - still it didn’t tear
Now you wanna end it with your own hands, but hold on, cuz this ain’t you.
Wanna die so maybe then they know your value?
Write a poem for you and put on your grave?
Or say, poor kid his way got lost. Like a joke, over your grave with a can of fruit.
Your thoughts playing games, convincing all you do
Thinking your life is held hostage on this earth
But stop right now. You’re just angry, this can’t be your final thought!
CHORUS:
Don’t you know the silence of your body (your end)
Equals the collapse of your nation
Don’t go! Or it closes the book on all of our futures
Don’t you know your step toward death, is a sunset on your nation
Stay! Move forward with me. Build a future and stand strong with me.
Why are you after your own death?
You think that you’re falling behind?
Everything’s fine. You know you’re just wasting your time
Everyone memory is on short term, you go, they just grab on to another
You know all this, and you still wanna go?
Maybe you wanna give your enemies a head start?
They stabbed you in the back. They messed with you bad.
You wasted your time. Again, you fall behind.
Left in the dark. Your time filled with pain.
Our time is running out.
Too bad your path is off course. A passenger on the road towards death
I thought 100 times of wanting to die ... But no! This is all wrong ...
(CHORUS)
Why is it now that for death, you see a green light?
Is this the best you come up with to free yourself?
You wanna kill yourself and end it for what?
Damn this devil and sit back down.
You think when you cross that bridge to the other side,
Angels are waiting with a bouquet in hand ?
No. Be sure there’s no such thing.
Many have gone. You’ll be just another on the list.
Stand up and wipe the dirt off yourself.
Grab (seize) this quiet and cold world. Stand up.
Say, “It’ll take a lot more than this to take me down.”
Suicide is beneath someone like you
Our pain is our lesson if we let it be
So when we reach the top we’ll know what it took
Your pain is playing games with you now
Nothing is hidden from the eyes of the judge above
Say it, say: “There’s still another tomorrow left!”
Say: “All these troubles, they won’t win in the end.”
Say: “You think that I may have lost to you (the pain)”,
“But by the time you think ... I’ve already won this game!”
