about

I Am talks about the inner struggles one has in their own head. Thinking that a self destructive way is the only way to go because life has always been unfair. In our EP “FORSAKEN, I talk about a home that I built off of memories, traumas and anger. This song takes places outside of that home but, seeing myself from the outside in. Being scared to leave it all behind because ‘home is where the heart is’ and even though it’s not an east life, it’s the only life I know.

By Who: Martin Miramontes Jr

lyrics

Welcome to this warzone
The only place I know
It’s hard to make the right choices
When you know one road
Follow me as we go through this house
The same one at some point we tried to drown
These memories are the only things I have to claim
Everything else around me always seems to escape
I am whatever you say I am
I am the one who built this house in which I stand
I am whatever you say I am
I am the one who built this house in which I stand
They say home is where the heart is
Maybe that’s why I haven’t left
My heart was taken from me in this place
Locked away in a hidden box
But threw away the key
So I search and I search to find the missing pieces
Maybe that will help me get through this mission
The key objective in this game of life
Is finding something that holds everything inside
To the world you’re alive
But to yourself you’re dead
I am whatever you say I am
I am the one who built this house in which I stand
I am whatever you say I am
I am the one who built this house in which I stand
