Tekst Utworu

[Intro]
Here I am in your face
Tellin' truths and not your old lies
Seems to me that you care
And I know that you're runnin' outta time
See, you can't get away
I'll be here forever and again
Whisperin' in your ear
Do believe 'cause you know you cannot win
[Verse 1]
Spent most your life pretending not to be
The one you are but who you choose to see
Learned to survive in your fictitious world
Does what they think of you determine your worth?
If special's what you feel when you're with them
Taken away, you feel less than again
[Chorus]
That's right
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Tryin' to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror, my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointin' the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
[Chorus]
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Tryin' to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror, my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointin' the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
[Verse 2]
There's a feeling inside
No, you cannot change it right away
You gotta make a try
And with time, it'll start to go away
I'll be here when you need
That one to sit and cry to
'Cause I'm the you, you forgot
The only one you know you cannot lie to
[Verse 3]
Bitter you'll be if you don't change your ways
When you hate you, you hate everyone that day
Unleash this scared child that you've grown into
You cannot run, for you can't hide from you
Can't hide from you
[Chorus]
That's right
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Tryin' to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror, my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointin' the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
[Chorus]
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Tryin' to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror, my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointin' the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
[Chorus]
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Tryin' to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror, my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointin' the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
[Refrain]
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
You can't blame nobody but
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
You can't blame nobody but you
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
You can't blame nobody
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
[Chorus]
Ah, that's right
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Tryin' to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror, my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointin' the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
[Chorus]
You gotta mean what you say
You gotta say what you mean
Tryin' to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror, my friend
No lies will be told then
Pointin' the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
[Refrain]
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
Pointin' the finger again
Can't blame nobody but you
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
Who's tellin' lies again?
You can't blame nobody but you
[Verse 4]
You gotta mean what you say
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
You gotta say what you mean
Tryin' to please everyone
Sacrifice your own needs
Check in the mirror, my friend
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
No lies will be told then
Pointin' the finger again
You can't blame nobody but you
E-C-N-E-I-C-S-N-O-C
