(Can't) Be Like You

 Can't break

Everything I am

Can't fake

Anything around

It's all real

No shame 

No hate

No facade

I'm not fucking around 

With anyone

That doesn't understand 

I'll throw it in your face

These days

It feels like

Everyone's playing a game

It's okay

We're all going insane 

Pretending the old ways

Still work the same as yesterday 

So I'm 

Never looking back 

Never giving up

Never thinking twice

About where I'm going 

Forget about the past 

Forget about the pain

Forget about never knowing 

What the future holds

It never mattered much

I don't wanna be like you

Stuck in misery

At a dead end since 23

I don't wanna be like you

Picking on everyone

Acting like my shit don't stink 

I don't wanna be like you 

Blaming the world

For all of my mistakes 

I'll never be like you

I refuse to be as pathetic 

I won't be like you
