What Do I Say?

[Intro]
Your echoing voice will fade in time,  
By my own choice, we make our divide
[Verse 1]
I don't know if I'll ever make it out of this place,  
I don't know if I'll ever see your face,
All I know is I don't wanna be like you,  
I'm breaking these chains, I'm pushing through.
[Pre-Chorus]
All these years you spent lying to my face,  
Does it make you happy knowing you're a disgrace?
30 years now and you're still letting me down,  
But I rise from the ashes, never backing down.
[Chorus]
I've taken the pain, turned it into my fire,  
You've got nothing to gain, building my own empire.
Your echoing voice will fade in time,  
By my own choice, we make our divide.
[Verse 2]
What do I say to myself, to pick me up out of this hell?  
What do I say to myself, do you know?
I'm forging a path, where your shadows can't go,  
Cutting the ties, letting the truth show.
[Bridge]
We tear it down, build it up anew,  
Unstoppable force, we make our own rules
[Final Chorus]
I've taken the pain, turned it into my fire,  
You've got nothing to gain, building my own empire.
Your echoing voice will fade in time,  
By my own choice, we make our divide.
[Outro]
What do I say to myself, to pick me up out of this hell?  
What do I say to myself, do you know?
