Story Behind the Song
I was fed up with people trying to make my decisions for me. I let it go on for much too long, and I had enough.
Lyrics
I danced with the devil in the pale moonlight,
'Cause it's always been my turn to step up to the mic,
It's critical to let me clear my mind,
'Cause it's other people that are lockin' up my spine,
I figured things out, just a long time ago,
When I needed me to be on my own,
It was known by many, but I believed otherwise,
And now it's time for me to change the tides,
The world we live in, made me a stronger man,
'Cause it took me too damn long, just to understand,
The force within me, is helping me succeed,
And now, I'm living my dreams, it all seems,
Like it should be easy, but I know it's not,
'Cause I always wanted to be the one standin' on top,
So, no one is holdin' me under the knife,
But, I'm the only one that will live my life.
(Chorus 4x)
No one's gonna live my life, (3x)
No one's gonna live for me, die for me,
No one can stop me.
I learned to never make the same mistake,
That's why I back out, it's from all the s--- that I take,
'Cause there's very few people I trust,
I only trust myself, and that's a must,
It's leading me to somethin' I don't want to touch,
It's about a girl that I loved so much,
She lost trust in me, because of the fact I lied,
I came forth with the problem, at least it's fortified,
She never would have told me about the thing that she had,
I had to budge it out of her, man, that's just sad,
'Cause she said she didn't want to hurt me,
I felt four stabs from her, and the wounds still bleed,
You see, the woman that made me feel good in my head,
Was the same one that left me for dead,
But, my life will always live on,
With my heart intact, I will always stay strong, 'cause...
(Chorus 4x)
Even though you said I'm messed up,
I know myself, so just fess up,
'Cause you're draggin' me down, by the way that you live,
I could help you, but I have nothin' to give,
I mean, I asked for guidence for so damn long,
And I ended up gettin' none at all,
Like grains of sand, going through my withered hands,
I knew that my life was going to end,
I had to rewind, up icey hills I climb,
I had to find a soul that was mine,
No one is going to take me from me,
And if you try to, you won't even f---in' succeed,
I've been blessed by the hands of God,
He's pushed me to move on, take the ball and run,
And my life I had, I will always live,
Until someone has their heart to give, 'cause...
(Chorus 4x)
