[Intro]
Goodbye to innocence
Anonymity (sic)
Peace of mind
Goodbye to all of us
Hello mankind
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Goodbye to innocence
Always and forever
Stop think about it (x2)
[Chorus]
You know you better stop
Stop and think about how you get your kicks
I know I didn't ask for it
You know you better stop, stop and think about me
Before you mess with someone else
Why don't u pay attention to yourself
[Verse 1]
There are some who believe that I owe them something
But theyâre wrong, I owe nothing to no one but myself
And there are some who say they created me
But only my parents will have that acclaim
I took it from there, I am to blame
[Pre- Chorus 2]
I am the one
Who knows me better
Let me remind you
I am the one
Who's gonna stand up babe
No matter, whatever
[Chorus]
You know you better stop
Stop and think about how you get your kicks
I know I didn't ask for it
You know you better stop, stop and think about me
Before you mess with someone else
Why don't u pay attention to yourself
[Verse 2]
My life is not a game that I play to entertain you
And if you could do it better then you're welcome to my fame
I'm not gonna spend my time correcting myths and rumors
You believe what u wanna believe, and I'll pray to keep my sense of humor
[Pre- Chorus 2]
I am the one
Who knows me better
Let me remind you
I am the one
Who's gonna stand up babe
Always and forever
[Chorus]
You know you better stop
Stop and think about how you get your kicks
I know I didn't ask for it
You know you better stop, stop and think about me
Before you mess with someone else
Why don't u pay attention to yourself
Yourself and nobody else (no matter, whatever)
Yourself (yourself and nobody else) no matter whatever
Stop
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Goodbye to innocence
Always and forever
Stop think about it (x4)
[Pre- Chorus 2]
I am the one
Who knows me better
Let me remind you
I am the one
Who's gonna stand up babe
Always and forever
[Chorus]
You know you better stop
Stop and think about how you get your kicks
I know I didn't ask for it
You know you better stop, stop and think about me
Before you mess with someone else
Why don't u pay attention to this
[Outro]
Listen up
[Verse 3]
Some people have snake at the base of their spine that will suck out your lungs and will take away your time
They're called feeders, they're not believers
But you must not fear it
They're takers
And they will try to break your spirit
[Outro]
Stop and think about it (x2)
You know you better stop stop and think about it (x4)
Stop think about it (x6)
You know you better stop stop and think about it (x4)
STOP
You Are
