What I have means something What we will have is up to us What I have means something What we will have is up to us And I've never been doing this alone Don't tell me what this world needs, I'll tell you what brings me to life You were never the author of my script You're just a player, an evil queen Oh, ignoring the King Better as socialite soldiers, One of us will matter more In bricks and mortar But I am a lost cause Because I don't have a machine to lean on Try to tell me I'm less of a human Because I never drove myself insane From the weight of the chase Of your identical dream What I have means something What we will have is up to us Try to tell me my place In your sick circular game All you see is red white and blue Oh, but I can see more You live and die by the green Or are my eyes playing tricks on me? I know I'm not a part of your machine Can you say the same? I've built this for myself But I've had so much help All this has shaped me I don't need your American Dream There's more than one way to live complete If I'm a loose end, then lose me I'll prove a rabid dog can lead your sheep This doesn't feel like freedom Round up the dogs and put them down Try to tell me I'm less of a human Because I never drove myself insane From the weight of the chase Of your identical dream What I have means something What we will have is up to us Try to tell me my place In your sick circular game You've been running your mouth For far too long, but talk is cheap. Don't tell me it's the nature of the beast You knew better You can keep your misery For an extra dime or two And I'll gather my pennies Living a different kind of dream My treasure's above What we will have is up to us I'll build a bridge from the corner And I'll take the risk to move forward
