Fall back Take a look at me and you'll see I'm for real I feel what only I can feel and if that don't appeal to you let me know And I'll go 'cuz I flow Better when my colors show And that's the way it has to be Honestly 'Cuz creativity could never bloom In my room I'd throw it all away before I lie So don't call me with a compromise Hang up the phone I've got a backbone stronger than yours La la la la la la La la la la la la la La la la la la la Yeah, yeah, yeah

You don't know You think you know me like yourself but I fear That you're only telling me what I wanna hear but do you give a damn Understand That I can't Not be what I am I'm not the milk and cheerios in your spoon Its not a simple here if I'm not so soon I might've fallen for that when I was fourteen in a little more dream But its amazing what a couple of years can mean La la la la la la La la la la la la la La la la la la la Yeah, yeah
