They told me

Verse 1

They told me, "Stop it, you can't make it, don't chase the dream,"

Threw their words at my back, then walked away, so cold and mean.

They wanted me to vanish, pressed me down with tricks and lies,

But I won't let their poison in, I'll keep my strength, I'll stay alive.

Chorus

I hear the echoes of their murky, twisted games,

My inner voice is charging up, it fuels these burning flames.

They're weaving spiderwebs of deceit and dirty schemes,

I'm full of power, because I know a traitor wears a many face.

Verse 2

Same hollow talk, it hangs like bitter smoke in the air,

Aimed at the ones who broke the rules, who dared to walk elsewhere.

I clenched my fists, while they were whispering always yakked,

I know my own damn road, I won't stoop to their cheap chatter, that's a fact.

Chorus

I catch their hints, their rattling, savage laughter in my back,

But my inner voice stands guard, it shields me from the whack.

They're weaving spiderwebs of deceit and dirty schemes,

I'm full of power, because I know a traitor wears a many face.

Verse 3

Now all this noise is just some distant voices fading out,

It flickers in the background, doesn't burn like coals, no doubt.

Before, I'd look in the mirror, see the chase behind my eyes,

Now there's just a clear horizon and the future up ahead, it's mine.

Outro

No one ever promised me the path would be so bright and clean,

But I won't give up, even if the whole world turns so mean.
