If I'M Wrong

Every day
Every day’s the same
Every night
Every night’s another fight
You cast your hateful stares
While your heart’s no longer there

So go ahead and hate me
Kill me for what I believe
You’ll see what you wanna see
You’ll be who you wanna be 

And even if in the end I’m wrong
And I’ll never sing another song
I knew I never wanted to live for nothing
In the end at least I stood for something

So cast your stone
Capture this living throne
I see money’s in your eyes
While you deceive with your lies

So go ahead and hate me
Kill me for what I believe
You’ll see what you wanna see
You’ll be who you wanna be

When everything
Turns upside down
When everyone
Threatens to take your crown
Inside your heart turns cold
Because you were never bold

So go ahead and hate me
Kill me for what I believe
You’ll see what you wanna see
You’ll be who you wanna be

The coward seeks pleasure
While the brave seeks forever
You’ll grasp onto your crown
While your sins bury you in the ground

So go ahead and hate me
Kill me for what I believe
You’ll see what you wanna see
You’ll be who you wanna be

And even if in the end I’m wrong
And I’ll never sing another song
I knew I never wanted to live for nothing
In the end at least I stood for something
