You were that foundation
Never gonna be another one, no
I followed, so taken
So conditioned I could never let go
Then sorrow, then sickness
Then the shock when you flip it on me
So hollow, so vicious
So afraid I couldn't let myself see
That I could never be held
Back or up no, i hold myself
Check the rep
Yep you know mine well
Forget the rest
Let them know my hell
There and back
Yet my soul ain't sell
Kept respect up
The best they fell
Let the rest be the tale they tell
That I was there saying
In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie
I can see through
This time I finally let you
Test my will, test my heart
Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up
Ya'll go hard, i go smart
How's that working out for y'all in the back, huh?
I've seen that frustration
Been crossed and lost and told no
And I've come back, unshaken
Let down and lived and let go
So you can let it be known
I don't hold back I hold my own
I can't be mapped
I can't be cloned
I can't c-flat
It ain't my tone
I can't fall back I came too far
Hold myself up and love my scars
Let the bells ring wherever they are
'Cause I was there saying
In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie
I can see through
This time I finally let you
No
You can tell 'em all now
I don't back up, i don't back down
I don't fold up and I don't bow
I don't roll over, don't know how
I don't care where the enemies are
Can't be stopped all I know go hard
Won't forget how I got this far
For every time saying
In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie
I can see through
This time I finally let you
