You think you know me and who I am
Telling me your do's and your don'ts - you're the man
It seems the higher that I crawl
The more you are there trying to end it
Can't be what you see
It's not me, it's what you believe
You're nothing
If I make it, it's on my own
(CHORUS)
Break this down
All you has-been's and never-will-be's
Screaming Hey-y-y
Write this down
You'll never get nothing from me
Crying Hey-y-y
How can you tell me where to go
My life's gone places you don't even know
You say you're there to watch my back
But why is your knife out
Won't be what you see
It's all me, it's what I believe
You're nothing
If I make it, it's on my own
(CHORUS)
Break this down (on my)
Take this down (on my)
Write this (on my own)
Break this down (on my)
Take this down (on my)
Write this down
Screaming Hey-y-y-y
