For too long Ive tried
to compromise my integrity
for someone else's dreams
I closed my eyes my mind
and let them lead me into submission
now I feel the lesser of two evils
with my head bowed down
tail between my legs
and I'm afraid this is not me
inspiration it flies high
when I'm looking up away from the American lie
expectations fill my head with dreams
I've never dream
forged from anger, hate and greed
hoping that someday my fight will catch on you
now my pockets full of lint
and my heads full of expectations
I'm still trying to build a guiltless fortress
I'm gonna take back what's mine
my heart, my body, my soul, my mind
you can never restrain self righteous contradictions
take back what's mine
my heart, my body, my soul, my mind
