Lyrics
As I started in I thought that
it was all great.
I followed blindly.
Slowly then the tide, it changed, and
you would dictate.
Not so kindly.
All the things I knew you'd do,
I could never prove.
I thank god I made it,
and now I'm liberated.
I'e got all the things I've been denied.
I flip on my shades.
Got cool in spades.
And now I'm taking back my pride.
I make my own damn rules.
No more dirty fools.
As it went from bad to worse I,
I took a break,
and checked my space.
You controlled my every moment.
I never planned
to be in an arms race.
Going Section 8 en route,
I could never prove.
I thank god I made it,
and now i'm liberated.
I've got all the things I've been denied.
I flip on my shades.
Got cool in spades.
And now I'm taking back my pride.
I make my own damn rules.
No more dirty fools.
