Obligations

Who do you think you are
Messing with my reputation
Who do you think you are
Giving me those obligations
Your ego has drowned your heart
'Cause you never seem to listen
The person you think you are
Will never be forgiven

A silent scream into the night
I think I've lost my new found light
Can you feel the heat on your face?

If this was a fair fight
I would've won because I'm right
But you don't need excuses to rule

If I died tomorrow what would you think
Were you the last one who let me sink
Or did you just look the other way?

Would my footprint still be seen
If tomorrow I'd start to lean
Or would I just be an another broken dream
Lost in the future you had not foreseen?

Who do you think you are
Messing with my reputation
Who do you think you are
Giving me those obligations
Your ego has drowned your heart
'Cause you never seem to listen
The person you think you are
Will never be forgiven

Oh darling can you still not see
This isn't the way things are supposed to be
But when did I ever give a fuck?

I know too well that I'm feeling low
But I don't have anywhere to go
So for now I'm trapped, just let it be

I read an ancient prophecy
It said I should be glad to be me
Maybe I am, when it's time

Oh why can't you all just see
We all can decide our destiny
Just give freedom a little try
You could be surprised and understand why!

Who do you think you are
Messing with my reputation
Who do you think you are
Giving me those obligations
Your ego has drowned your heart
'Cause you never seem to listen
The person you think you are
Will never be forgiven

When we get pushed to the top of the hill
Will we feel the need to kill
What will save us from ourselves?

When we get crushed by the world's weight
And when the gods fill us with hate
Would we see it before it's too late
Will a man accept his fate?
