there's a riot in my mind
there's a fire on the inside
an insurrection in my spirit
this heart is a bomb waiting
to go off
we are weak, we are dumb
we're too smart, we're too strong
is this vice or is this virtue?
even monsters can seem beautiful
we're all fucked, and you're fucked too
though we are much the same, i am nothing like you
in all that you expect from someone else
lie the very things that you won't do yourself
i try my best to be just like i am
but all ya'll want me to be just like your own selves
and now you wanna go to war with me?
well you can't match determination like this
every critic just a hack
every judge a scum fuck shit bag
have all the rebels lost the spirit?
is this just just fashioning rebellion?
fuck your resentment, i owe you nothing
no apologies for the sake of sentiment
i will never surrender my identity
not to you, no, not to anybody
you're so determined to grind me down
but these sparks will fly and guess who gets burnt now?
brought to your knees by your own cynicism
you tried to take me down but i'm still standing
