you think you know me and who i am
telling me your do's and your dont's
your the man
it seems the higher that i crawl,
the more you are there trying to end it,
can't be what you see, it's not me,
it's what you believe, you're nothing
if i make it, it's on my own,

break this down,
all you has-been's and never-will-be's
i am screaming hey-y-y-y-y-y
write this down,
you'll never get nothing from me
i am crying hey-y-y-y-y-y

how can you tell me where to go?
my life's gone places you dont even know
you say you're there to watch my back
but why is your knife out?
won't be what you see, it's all me
it's what i believe, you're nothing
if i make it, it's on my own

break this down,
all you has-been's and never-will-be's
i am screaming hey-y-y-y-y-y
write this down,
you'll never get nothing from me
i am crying hey-y-y-y-y-y

break this down (on my)
take this down (on my)
write this (on my own)

break this down (on my)
take this down (on my)
write this down
screaming hey-y-y-y-y-y
