I wasn't born to be a slave
They pulled the wool over my eyes
They tried to shackle me in chains
They tried to make me lose my mind
They say you're not good enough
Strong enough, here's a gun, take your own life!
I had to be broken to be healed, now my eyes are open, finally, I can feel
I know that you burn inside me and darkness might fall
But if you stand beside me I know no one can stand against me
They're building walls up with their lies. You blindly follow where they lead
They feed the void you feel inside, but they can't give you what you need
They say you're not good enough
Strong enough, here's the rope, take your own life!
Take your own life
They say you're not good enough, strong enough, wise enough
They say you're not good enough, strong enough, wise take your own life
I had to be broken to be healed, now my eyes are open, finally, I can feel
I know that you burn inside me and darkness might fall
But if you stand beside me I know no one can stand against me
