You only live once so don't waste it on hate
Time is a traitor and looking back is too late
I don't care what you think of me
With your fucked up hate and bigotry
I'm not gonna tell ya how to live your life
Just don't live it near me

I ain't gonna let your intolerance drag me down
I'm gonna make sure my black heart don't drown
You can drag me through the water and try to beat me down
I'll be screaming in defiance and still I'll stand my ground

If you don't like what I'm saying, you better just f*ck off
And let me get on with the rest of my life alone
Don't look at me like my attitude somehow offends your soul
If you gotta judge me keep your petty thoughts to yourself
I'm done

Don't need your approval to do the things I do
I'd rather be a drop out than end up just like you
Please forgive me if I've pissed you off but I've really done my best
To act the way I wanted to, not sacrifice and repress

You can tell me who you want me to be
Scream into my face that I need to be replaced
My ears are deaf to you my eyes will never see
I'll only be this man I am this man I'll always be

I'm gonna do what I want
And not fear the consequences
It's my life I'm gonna live it
Don't mean to cause offence
I won't be missing any chance
To enjoy the things I do
So get the f*ck out of my way
And accept that I'm not you

Don't need your approval to do the things I do
I'd rather be a drop out than end up just like you
Please forgive me if I've pissed you off but I've really done my best
To act the way I wanted to, not sacrifice and repress

You can tell me who you want me to be
Scream into my face that I need to be replaced
My ears are deaf to you my eyes will never see
I'll only be this man I am this man I'll always be

You gave my anger a face, you're a fucked up disgrace
You started this fight, I remain fucking defiant

I won't conform to your ideals, I won't be sculpted like clay
I don't live to be accepted by your standards every day
Your obsession with your station is a lack of self expression
I'll never fit into your niche to be paraded on a leash.

Don't need your approval to do the things I do
I'd rather be a drop out than end up just like you
Please forgive me if I've pissed you off but I've really done my best
To act the way I wanted to, not sacrifice and repress

You can tell me who you want me to be
Scream into my face that I need to be replaced
My ears are deaf to you my eyes will never see
I'll only be this man I am this man I'll always be

You gave my anger a face, you're a fucked up disgrace
You started this fight, I remain fucking defiant
