Falling In Reverse - The Westerner

I was born one morning in December on the coldest day Abandoned by my mother, whom my father I was raised My father raised my brother and I with a stubborn heart My mother left me her good looks and confident charm Well, I spent most of my teenage years searching for her love I could not find it anywhere, so I turned to drugs And after all the smoked had cleared, and it was said and done I found myself addicted by the age of 21, I tell the truth I've been beaten, I've been bruised, I was left for dead as well I was wrongfully accused, you left me locked inside a cell I've been cheated, I've been sued, but I have lived to tell The more you kick me when I'm down, the more it truly helps I feel the madness creeping slowly Loved by many, I'm still lonely Pay the price for your mistake The music died the day I walked away No, I won't let you win, not this time, my friend You know that I'm better in the end No, you won't take my pride, I'll keep my head held high 'Cause I know that I'm better in the end Whoa, I know you're jealous and you wish you could be me I'm so smart and clever with my lyrics, can't you see? There's nobody better in this music industry And in case you think you are, go ahead, give me a ring Whoa, I deserve a purple heart from all my fucking wounds Lacerations to my ego, pride that I've consumed And in your final hours, when you are looking back You'll find that I'm the best at what I do, and that's a fact No, I won't let you win, not this time, my friend You know that I'm better in the end No, you won't take my pride, I'll keep my head held high 'Cause I know that I'm better in the end And all I got to say Take it or leave it, but you best believe me it's true There's no mistaking, so, please, stop thinking I'm through You know I'm better than you No, I won't let you win, not this time, my friend You know that I'm better in the end No, you won't take my pride, I'll keep my head held high 'Cause I know that I'm better in the end, in the end
