Got nothing, got nothing but the will to survive

   You can't control, and you can't deny me

My mind, it ain't so simple
                     C5 D5  Eb5  C5 D5
Where's your vocabulary
                         C5 D5  Eb5  C5 D5
Your ignorance is sinful

You plant your lying seeds
                             C5 D5  Eb5  C5 D5
Watch as the roots take hold
                           C5 D5  Eb5  C5 D5
