My family generations, watching over me
They've all been the same and they used to be proud of me
But somehow I dont fit into this mould,
This crowd that has been formed
Oh, I'm just an outsider waiting to fit in
When I'm in this house
I feel like I have to pretend
When I'm in the house
I feel like i have to put on a play and disguise myself
I'm avoiding me, I'm avoiding everything I stand for
Just for your cause, your cause
I'm avoiding me, I'm avoiding everything I love
Just for your cause, your cause
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
I respect our traditions, new and old
But I find it hard to let go
I dont think its right that your holding me down
So I'm gonna stand my ground
When I'm in this house
I feel like I have to pretend
When I'm in the house
I feel like i'm putting on a disguise
I'm avoiding me, I'm avoiding everything I stand for
Just for your cause, your cause
I'm avoiding me, I'm avoiding everything I love
Just for your cause, your cause
Oh, oh
I know it could be pressure on you
As you have high expectations from your fathers, your fathers above you
But I can't fit into your box
I can't be what you want
Im sorry, sorry, sorry but
Im ignoring you, I'm ignoring everything you stand for
For my cause, for my sake
Im ignoring you, I'm ignoring everything you stand for
For my cause and my sake
