It's grown into a scream
I am the first of me
I'm not the next of them
Ah, ooh
I am the first of me
That's something I can't do
That's something I can't do
Just an empty shell
I am just what you see
You just give them what's expected
It's grown into a scream
All I have to do
I'm not the next of them
I am the first of me
You've finally woken up
Ah, ooh
I am just what you see
Are yours to hold if
If I can't refuse
And I will suffer
It's harder than it seems
I am the first of me
I hear a voice inside
Listen to my voice
Deep down inside of you
I hear a voice inside
And it's time to face the truth
I am not for sale
Should I give in
The price they offer
Just an empty shell
If only just to prove
The other someone else
All your hopes and dreams
So, when the waiting's done
I'm not the next of them
You were born to lead the way
Something they can sell
I am the first of me
Sell my soul to make a profit
I am the first of me
One leads to myself
You know you're good enough
When you're told that
'Cause I can't live the lie
To temptation, admiration?
Put upon a shelf
I am sure to lose
'Cause I can't live the lie
But I am not for sale
I'm not the next of them
Is make believe it's true
