Do what you want to me.
I can take it.
It’s not in my nature to seek
apologies.
I’ve been a man of one mind.
I’ve been a man of my own.
Take me away from these lies.
I’m all that I’ve ever known.
Down to my bones,
I’m a survivor.
Anything you can do
I can do better.
I can inflict this shit
faster and sharper
and throw it all away.
You’ll never really know
what I’m willing to discard,
to give up,
to die,
to win.
I’m a survivor.
Tell me again
why you’re worth more,
why you’re stronger,
why you’re crazier than me?
This is a contest,
but it’s not the one
that you thought you were in.
We’re all the same in the end.
No special regard.
Forgotten by time,
consumed by fire.
I don’t think you understand
what I’m willing to give up
in order to live.
I’m a survivor.
I’m not getting lost
in the day-to-day.
I’m climbing out of my own head
and into yours
where I live on.
My words aren’t just infectious;
they’re weaponized,
designed to get into your mind
and propagate in time.
That’s how I survive.
I’ll stand up tall,
I’ll take the fall;
I’ll take on anything at all.
One life,
one fight,
until tonight.
You can’t erase
what’s in my mind,
because now,
it’s in you, too.
A little bit of me in you.
I told you;
do whatever you have to.
I’m a survivor.
