I'm breaking your rules
You called me a fool
What if I prove
Your limits aren't true?
That's what you're 'fraid of ain't it?
Convinced yourself you can't make it
I shattered the image of your limits
You called me a gimmick
Showed you love
Showed me resentment
Afraid of the authentic
You won't bring
It's the only reason
That I sing
Not gonna hide behind the cool
Being myself the only rule
I know life is cruel
But it's also beautiful
Gonna do me before I go
I'm breaking your rules
You called me a fool
What if I prove
Your limits aren't true?
That's what you're 'fraid of ain't it?
Convinced yourself you can't make it
Used to be scared I was too weird
I was scared just to be here
Brainwashed away my fear
Now my mind is so clear
Good fortune is so near
Close enough to taste it
Took the long path, I wouldn't change it
Headed back to the basement
To plan a new arrangement
Where I won't wonder where the days went
There's truth inside if you face it
If it doesn't match the rule then break it
I'm breaking your rules
You called me a fool
What if I prove
Your limits aren't true?
That's what you're 'fraid of ain't it?
Convinced yourself you can't make it
