(Hook)
|
|
I'm not afraid to take a stand
|
Everybody come take my hand
|
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
|
Whatever weather, cold or warm
|
Just let you know that, you're not alone
|
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road
|
|
(Intro)
|
|
Yeah, It's been a ride...
|
I guess I had to go to that place to get to this one
|
Now some of you might still be in that place
|
If you're trying to get out, just follow me
|
I'll get you there
|
|
(Verse 1)
|
|
You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay 'em
|
But you won't take this thing out these words before I say 'em
|
Cause ain't no way I'm let you stop me from causing mayhem
|
When I say 'em or do something I do it, I don't give a damn
|
What you think, I'm doing this for me, so fuck the world
|
Feed it beans, it's gassed up, if a thing's stopping me
|
I'mma be what I set out to be, without a doubt undoubtedly
|
And all those who look down on me I'm tearing down your balcony
|
No if ands or buts don't try to ask him why or how can he
|
From Infinite down to the last Relapse album he's still shit and
|
Whether he's on salary, paid hourly
|
Until he bows out or he shit's his bowels out of him
|
Whichever comes first, for better or worse
|
He's married to the game, like a fuck you for christmas
|
His gift is a curse, forget the earth he's got the urge
|
To pull his dick from the dirt and fuck the universe
|
|
(Hook)
|
|
I'm not afraid to take a stand
|
Everybody come take my hand
|
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
|
Whatever weather, cold or warm
|
Just let you know that, you're not alone
|
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road
|
|
(Verse 2)
|
Ok quit playin' with the scissors and shit, and cut the crap
|
I shouldn't have to rhyme these words in the rhythm for you to know it's a rap
|
You said you was king, you lied through your teeth
|
For that fuck your feelings, instead of getting crowned you're getting capped
|
And to the fans, I'll never let you down again, I'm back
|
I promise to never go back on that promise, in fact
|
Let's be honest, that last Relapse CD was "ehhhh"
|
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground
|
|
Relax, I ain't going back to that now
|
All I'm tryna say is get back, click-clack BLAOW
|
Cause I ain't playin' around
|
There's a game called circle and I don't know how
|
I'm way too up to back down
|
But I think I'm still tryna figure this crap out
|
Thought I had it mapped out but I guess I didn't
|
This fucking black cloud's still follow's me around
|
But it's time to exercise these demons
|
These motherfuckers are doing jumping jacks now!
|
|
(Hook)
|
|
I'm not afraid to take a stand
|
Everybody come take my hand
|
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
|
Whatever weather, cold or warm
|
Just let you know that, you're not alone
|
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road
|
|
(Bridge)
|
|
And I just can't keep living this way
|
So starting today, I'm breaking out of this cage
|
I'm standing up, Imma face my demons
|
I'm manning up, Imma hold my ground
|
I've had enough, now I'm so fed up
|
Time to put my life back together right now
|
|
(Verse 3)
|
|
It was my decision to get clean, I did it for me
|
Admittedly I probably did it subliminally for you
|
So I could come back a brand new me, you helped see me through
|
And don't even realise what you did, believe me you
|
I been through the ringer, but they can do little to the middle finger
|
I think I got a tear in my eye, I feel like the king of
|
My world, haters can make like bees with no stingers, and drop dead
|
No more beef flingers, no more drama from now on, I promise
|
To focus soley on handling my responsibility's as a father
|
So I solemnly swear to always treat this roof like my daughters and raise it
|
You couldn't lift a single shingle lonely
|
Cause the way I feel, I'm strong enough to go to the club
|
Put a ??? and lift the whole liquor counter up
|
Cause I'm raising the bar, I shoot for the moon
|
But I'm too busy gazing at stars, I feel amazing and
|
|
(Hook)
|
|
I'm not afraid to take a stand
|
Everybody come take my hand
|
We'll walk this road together, through the storm
|
Whatever weather, cold or warm
|
Just let you know that, you're not alone
|
Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road
