The Westerner

歌詞

I was born one morning in December On the coldest day Abandoned by my mother By my father I was raised My father raised my brother and I With a stubborn heart My mother left me her good looks and confident charm Well I spent most of my teenage years Searching for her love I could not find it anywhere So I turned to drugs And after all the smoke had cleared And it was said and done I found myself addicted by the age of 21 I tell the truth I've been beaten I've been bruised I was left for dead as well I was wrongfully accused You left me locked inside a cell I've been cheated I've been sued But I have lived to tell The more you kick me when I'm down The more it truly helps I feel the madness creeping slowly Loved by many, I'm still lonely Paid the price for your mistake The music died the day I walked away No, I won't let you win Not this time my friend You know that I'm better in the end No, you won't take my pride I'll keep my head held high 'Cause I know that I'm better in the end Woaaah, I know you're jealous And you wish you could be me I'm so smart and clever with my lyrics can't you see? There's nobody better in this music industry And in case you think you are, go ahead, give me a ring Woaaah I deserve a purple heart From all my fucking wounds Lacerations to my ego Pride that I consume And in your final hours When you are looking back You'll find that I'm the best at what I do And that's a fact No, I won't let you win Not this time my friend You know that I'm better in the end No, you won't take my pride I'll keep my head held high 'Cause I know that I'm better in the end And all got to say (Do do do do do do do do, bah bah bah da, Do do do do do do do do, la la la la la la) Take it or leave it But you best believe me it's true There's no mistaking, so please stop the faking, I'm through You know I'm better than you No, I won't let you win Not this time my friend You know that I'm better in the end No, you won't take my pride I'll keep my head held high 'Cause I know that I'm better in the end In the end (Do do do do do do do do, bah bah bah da, Do do do do do do do do, la la la la la la)
