Hoobastank - The First Of Me

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