LYRICS:
I’ve been rejected before,
I’ve been neglected before
I’ve been picked up, put down, chewed up, spit out
Found the strength to endure.
I’ve been forgotten before,
I’ve been unwanted before,
I’ve been bleeding, broken, torn wide open,
Still refused to conform.
Cause if it’s kill or be killed,
you either break or be broken.
You need to push to survive.
And when there’s no simple choice,
and when there’s no easy answer,
You need to cut out the cancer.
Is nothing sacred?
Is nothing clean?
There’s no more impulse,
there’s no more dream.
Is nothing sacred?
Is nothing pure?
How long till there’s nothing, anymore?
And I’ve been hated before,
humiliated before
I’ve been set up, beat down, locked in, thrown out
Left to die on the floor.
I’ve been neglected before,
I’ve been rejected before.
I’ve been picked up, put down, chewed up, spit out
Found the strength to endure.
So, when it’s life over limb,
and when it’s sink or it’s swim,
Can you endure what comes after?
And if it’s lead or be led,
you have to choose or be chosen,
and it's the time to decide.
They’re looking down their noses at me,
Saying I’ll amount to nothing,
Standing on my shoulders, pushing me down.
It must be frustrating, your hate doesn’t phase me,
It just gives me more fuel to burn it to the ground.
I will become,
I won’t succumb.
Cause when there’s no simple choice,
and when there’s no easy answer
You need to cut out the cancer.
Is nothing sacred?
Is nothing clean?
There’s no more impulse,
there’s no more dream.
Is nothing sacred?
Is nothing pure?
How long till there’s nothing, anymore?
I’ve been rejected before,
I’ve been neglected before
I’ve been picked up, put down, chewed up, spit out
Found the strength to endure.
I’ve been forgotten before,
I’ve been unwanted before,
I’ve been bleeding, broken, torn wide open,
Still refused to conform.
Cause if it’s kill or be killed,
you either break or be broken.
You need to push to survive.
And when there’s no simple choice,
and when there’s no easy answer,
You need to cut out the cancer.
Is nothing sacred?
Is nothing clean?
There’s no more impulse,
there’s no more dream.
Is nothing sacred?
Is nothing pure?
How long till there’s nothing, anymore?
And I’ve been hated before,
humiliated before
I’ve been set up, beat down, locked in, thrown out
Left to die on the floor.
I’ve been neglected before,
I’ve been rejected before.
I’ve been picked up, put down, chewed up, spit out
Found the strength to endure.
So, when it’s life over limb,
and when it’s sink or it’s swim,
Can you endure what comes after?
And if it’s lead or be led,
you have to choose or be chosen,
and it's the time to decide.
They’re looking down their noses at me,
Saying I’ll amount to nothing,
Standing on my shoulders, pushing me down.

Cause when there’s no simple choice,
and when there’s no easy answer
You need to cut out the cancer.
Is nothing sacred?
Is nothing clean?
There’s no more impulse,
there’s no more dream.
Is nothing sacred?
Is nothing pure?
How long till there’s nothing, anymore?
