They breed the kids To value what they say Fuel a desire For a different day A fire burning up the truth inside (Canґt consume me) A hollow man living an empty life (That wonґt be me) No not me I wonґt be weak Rip apart the thickest skin Iґll stand until the end Iґll fall, Iґll rise – hold on until I die I see beyond the simple plan Iґll rise and be a better man Thereґs no retreat – I canґt be beat Reject the lies You can talk but I will not buy Sever the lies I always knew The things they promised me Would just be used To keep me on a leash They numb your mind Until they sell your soul No not me I wonґt be weak Rip apart the thickest skin Iґll stand until the end Iґll fall, Iґll rise – hold on until I die I see beyond the simple plan Iґll rise and be a better man Thereґs no retreat – I canґt be beat Transparent world – Iґve seen it fall Into the cracks – crumble the walls And now I canґt be CANґT BE BEAT
