Letra:

[English]

Lookin' at the devil

Grinnin' at his gun

Fingers start shakin'

I begin to run

Bullets start chasin'

I begin to stop

We begin to wrestle

I was on the top

I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again

Thank you for lettin' me be myself again

...

Stiff all in the collar

Fluffy in the face

Chit chat chatter tryin'

To stop me in the place

Thank you for the party

But I could never stay

Many things on my mind

Words in the way

I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again

Thank you for lettin' me be myself again

...

Dance to the music

All night long

Everyday people

Sing a simple song

Mama's so happy

Mama starts to cry

Papa still singin'

You can make it if you try

I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again

Thank you for lettin' me be myself again

...

Flamin' eyes of people fear, burnin' into you

Many men are missin' much, hatin' what they do

Youth and truth are makin' love

Dig it for a starter

Dyin' young is hard to take

Sellin' out is harder

Thank you for lettin' me be myself again

I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again

...

Thank you for lettin' me be myself again

Thank you for lettin' me be myself again

Thank you for lettin' me be myself again

Thank you for lettin' me be myself again

I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again

I want to thank you for lettin' me be myself again

...
