I Will Never Be Like You

I will never be like you.
I'll never do the things you do.
Say what you may.
Doubt what I say.
But I'll never end up like you.

I won't make the mistakes you make.
I won't take the turns you take.
Just because you messed up
doesn't mean I'll do the same.
My pride will be real, not fake.
