Anthrax - Gridlock lyrics

It's a long time, a long time comin' You tell me how you think i should be It's so easy You tell me what people want from me Well i'll just be myself It's the only way i can be but you don't see You accuse, abuse integrity You don't know one damn thing about me Not one damn thing Build me up and then you tear me down Curse my name when i'm not around You're so hard until the truth is found What goes round always comes around And it's a Long time, long time A long time comin' A long time, long time A long time comin', a vicious circle In your face i'll come runnin' Try and stop me A long time, much too long And i'm comin' Try and stop me I like to keep my friends around me close But my enemies closer Friends accept me for just who i am Not someone i'm supposed to be Or something they expect for free Do you know me? I live with myself, i know my place Wipe that bullsh** smile off your face The show is over Build me up and then you tear me down Curse my name when i'm not around You're so hard until the truth is found What goes round always comes around And it's a Long time, long time A long time comin' A long time, long time A long time comin', a vicious circle In your face i'll come runnin' Try and stop me A long time, much too long And i'm comin' Try and stop me You and me are gonna take a walk I think it's time we had a little talk I said, you and me are gonna take a walk And we're gonna do more than walk and talk Let me see how you think i should be You think it's so easy? Put yourself on trial everyday Against a hung jury You don't know a thing about me You believe the hype you see But in my heart god knows i'll be true To what my life will bring And it's a Long time, long time A long time comin' A long time, long time A long time comin', a vicious circle In your face i'll come runnin' Try and stop me A long time, much too long And i'm comin' Try and stop me
