The Devil
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't tell me I'm not good enough
I'll be my own judge and
Don't tell me I won't make the cut
I'll be passing you up!
Hear me, I am good enough
Don't need none of your love
Hear me, I'll turn the volume up
And sing it loud! Sing it loud and reach the crowd
When I say,
You'll be lookin' up to me one day, yeah!
Oh please, you don't have the strength
I'm here, here to stay
So don't tell me, I don't have a place
No matter what you say, I'm on my way!
You'll see! That's not how to play
Just leave, before it's too late
You'll see when I finish up the race,
I'll sing it loud!
Sing it loud and reach the crowd
When I say,
You'll be lookin' up to me one day, yeah!
I don't believe in revenge,
I don't believe it brings an end
But I do believe in truth
And the truth is, I come to this
Every time I need some confidence
I shout it out and
Sing it loud and reach the clouds
When I say,
You'll be lookin' up to me one day, yeah!
