Owed Zero

This skin is thick All the shots you fire ricochet No time for the naysayers Because I won't wait for mediocrity to be my saving grace So why settle for anything less than what I really want? I won't be a part of a generation content with a sold out dream No want for tomorrow, bored of living You're owed zero Owed nothing, take everything And I've seen it happen to the best of us Sometimes you forget that your hearts beating If you listen carefully you can hear it screaming You're owed zero What's the point in waiting? Don't be laid to rest without a legacy to leave behind Owed nothing, take everything Your life is a temporary bandage on a permanent wound Keep on paving the way on the dull life you Lead to find a mirror with a grim reflection Staring back with its black teeth and Hollow eyes that try to tell you something You should have noticed years ago, the world owes you zero Zero I will build my own path That's my birth right
