lyrics

You built a platform to reach more
But can’t contribute to the world you owe
They don’t see real heart, and that’s for sure
I’ve seen it all, I’ve seen it all, I’ve seen it all before

I’ll never be, never be like you
You’re temporary, I see the real you
I’ll never think, never think like you
You turned your worth into waste

You’re buying into it
Can’t bare the thought of it
How can’t it make you sick?
I can’t tell what you see
Or your mentality
You threw away responsibility

You built a platform to preach war
But can’t distribute what you’re fighting for
And it does nothing but make me sick
I’ll never be, i’ll never be apart of it

I’ll never be, never be like you
You’re temporary, I see the real you
I’ll never think, never think like you
You turned your worth into waste

I’ll never be like you
I'll never think like you
I see the truth
I see the real you

I’ll never be, never be like you
You’re temporary, I see the real you
I’ll never think, never think like you
You turned your worth into waste
