Just Like YOU

You think I’m gonna suck up to you?
I think you oughta think again.
You really oughta just try to get a clue,
I am NEVER gonna be like you.

Don’t you think I deserve to break the chain?
To be the one who’s been through so much, he finally broke free?
Don’t you think that for once I deserve to gain?
To be the one who’s gone so mad, he finally seems to be sane?

How much hate does it take to break a man in two?
Because it seems you’ve simply shattered.
How much can work, really, truly hurt, when the one doing it’s not you?
Because of that, I am NEVER gonna be like you.

You treat me as a slave, when in fact I’m your son,
But yet I still love to see you hate me,
You can hurt me with your knives and swords and guns,
But yet you’ll never break me,

Because I know what lies lie behind the truth,
And so I’ll NEVER be like you.
