Held a breath in my chest
On my grave, let me rest
Felt the same, haven't slept
Since I was eight, built the stress
Built a mess, built the debt
What I said to the dead
I won't mean it 'til it's over
It ain't over 'til I'm done
It ain't over 'til I got what I want
I'm a menace, I'm a god
I'm a sadist, I'm a fraud
If you saving, then you gone
But I'm basing off my flaws (yeah, yeah)
Point the center of the gun at my temple, say: You won't (bitch)
'Cause your demon made you soft
Now I'm laughing, do the most
I'll throw a party at your grave
We'll keep it popping through the way
The corpses dancing to the bass
While my piss soaking through your case
Yeah, I was born to be this way
I was born to die in vain
I was meant to feel this pain (this pain)
This curse of mine
I was born to go insane
Through the battles of fate
I was meant to feel this pain
This curse of mine
The one of a kind
The creep through the blind (blind)
It keeps me inside
This curse of mine
Never would've thought I'd have it figured out
Never took the time, but I figured I'd allow
Oh, tell me what you want before I take the time to shout
This curse of mine
I took the time to talk, but I never said enough (enough)
Tell me what you want before call you on your bluff (yeah)
Yeah, it's getting kinda hard, way I'm fucking up my lungs
Yeah, the snow-white clothes black, now she wanna fuck
It don't matter to me 'cause I'm stuntin' out
It don't matter to me, I'll fuckin' call him out
For the BS that he sayin' when my team around
Fuck it, got my patience running out
Yeah, I was born to be this way
I was born to die in vain
I was meant to feel this pain (this pain)
This curse of mine
I was born to go insane
Through the battles of fate
I was meant to feel this pain
This curse of mine
I was born this way
No ones around to blame
Just a mirror can't hide my face
I was born this way
Cut a lie, sacrifice
Never wrong, never right
Cut a lie, sacrifice
Never wrong, never-mind
I'll just like work with someone and like have respect for 'em
When they don't respect you in that way (anx)
I was born to be this way
(I was born to be this way)
I was born to be this way
(I was born to die in vain)
I was born to feel this way (this pain)
This curse of mine
I was born to be this way (I was born to go insane)
I was born to be this way (through the battles of fate)
I was born to be this way (this curse of mine)
