Here I am, the hammer strikes one, two, three
I'm impatiently tapping my feet
In a murmuring room full of critics and fakers
all waiting to take their seat
The focus of the room, all bating breath
Waiting on a single word that could spill from my mouth
That would give them a reason to take me for all I'm worth
I took the oath to tell the truth
so freely I'll tell you this:
My path's my own and mine alone
You won't understand, you want what I am
Forgetting the man inside
I'm calling you out, so try take me down
I took infinity from the sky and I made it, I made it my own
But not for you to turn into your personal property
I, I will outlast the turning of time, but I know that you're, know that you're scared of me
And what I can achieve, but I won't be waiting
I don't use your lungs to breathe
your feet can't walk for me
So tell me where you take your right to my mind
Brought the sky down on our heads
never mine to claim, you said
So tell me where you take your right to my freedom
My cause for creation, my mind, my direction, my life?
Unlock and engage
Everyone's equal but no-one's the same
We give what we choose
but we give what we want to, not to be used
I took infinity from the sky and I made it, I made it my own
But not for you to turn into your personal property
I, I will outlast the turning of time, but I know that you're, know that you're scared of me
And what I can achieve, but I won't be waiting
I'm the one who lit the fuse
I'm the one who pulled it out from under you
I'm the one who wears the consequence
I'm the one who will stay true to myself
so I'll wish you all well,
but I'll take my ideas with me
You won't understand, you want what I am
Forgetting the man inside
I'm calling you out, so try take me down
I took infinity from the sky and I made it, I made it my own
But not for you to turn into your personal property
I, I will outlast the turning of time, but I know that you're, know that you're scared of me
And what I can achieve, but I won't be waiting
