And now you want me to breathe And be so grateful Ah, for the air that I need (haha) Don't make me pitiful And in the morning light We're just the same you and me Out on the go, send officials Our propensity to breed The higher, the farther, the faster you fly You may be rich, but you can't deny me Got nothing, got nothing but the will to survive You can't control and you can't deny me Your lies are sick They're sick and they're vile You can't deny me Try and talk down to me My mind it ain't so simple Where's your vocabulary Your ignorance is sinful You plant your lying seeds Watch as the roots take hold The country you are now poisoning Condition critical The higher, the farther, the faster you fly I know it's true, and you can't deny me Got nothing, got nothing, you got nothing to hide Little bullshit whore, and you can't deny me The higher, the farther, the faster you fly It's all so sick and you can't deny me You can't deny me You can't deny me You don't defy me You can't deny me The higher, the farther, the faster you fly You know you're sick, and you can't deny me Got nothing, just nothing, got something to hide We see right through you and you can't deny me Darkness, darkness, darkness and light You can't deny me
