Am I Am I still tough enough? Feels like I'm wearing down (down down down down) Is my viciousness losing ground (ground ground ground ground) Am I taking too much? Did I cross the line? (line line) I need my role in this Very clearly defined I need your discipline I need your help I need your discipline You know once I start I cannot help myself Now it's starting up Feels like I'm losing touch Nothing matters to me Nothing matters as much I see you left a mark Up and down the skin (skin skin) I don't know where I end Or where you begin I need your discipline I need your help I need your discipline You know once I start I cannot help myself I cannot stop myself Once I start I cannot stop myself And you know Once I start I cannot stop myself And you know Once I start I cannot stop myself And you know Once I start I cannot stop myself And you know Once I start I cannot stop myself I need your discipline And you know I need your help Once I start I cannot stop myself I need your discipline And you know Because once I start I cannot stop myself I need your discipline And you know I need your help Once I start I cannot stop myself I need your discipline And you know Because once I start I cannot stop myself And you know Once I start I cannot stop myself And you know Once I start I cannot stop myself I need your discipline And you know Once I start I cannot stop myself I need your discipline And you know Cannot stop myself Once I start I cannot stop myself
