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 or 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, ah-ooh
I am the first of me, ah-ooh
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
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 or 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, ah-ooh
I am the first of me, ah-ooh
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
