lyrics

I know I made a promise
I know I've read my own rights
I know I scarred my image
And I know I've ruined up my life
But now that things are changing
I'll take what I can get
So here's the song that you asked for

I was born fatherless
No man to walk beside
With my whole life ahead
I never got the chance to decide
Male form deceived at birth
You held me in your hands
You call yourself a father figure
You're only known as dad

And it seems you're holding me back
Why can't I press on?
What's taking so long?
But I see you're fading to black
And I'll remember
I won't surrender

From where I'm standing
The grass is greener
Considering that
You're gone without a trace
I've known this all my life
But now I'm stepping forth
To lay to rest the very thing
That's bound me to this fucking scorn

(Why...)
(Why wouldn't you...)
(Why wouldn't you...)

Listen
Now I'm over it
Bblleegghh

Its taken years for me
To be able to stand here
And now that I possess
The strength to walk forward
I'll march ahead with honor
Proud of my own triumphs
And keep my head held high
Until the the day I soar

And it seems you're holding me back
Why can't I press on?
What's taking so long?
But I see you're fading to black
And I'll remember
I won't surrender

I am a man
You lying bitch
