I Can Do This Thing (lyrics)


Daddy Bear

Recommended Posts

i was just a baby, and i looked at life so innocently

you wanted to crush that, did you have a reason to be threatened by me

how many people did you kill inside for your own sick gain

were you feeling anything when you heard them crying out your name

 

daddy, daddy

 

i was just fifteen when you saw the opportunity to cast me out

couldn't look me in the eye any more and you couldn't have me hanging around

there was no emotion in you, i don't recall you even saying goodbye

you thought that you had killed my soul but i'm here, alive, and i can try

 

to pity you 'cause you can't cry

 

and i can do this thing

stand on my own

it's all about me

i can make it alone

 

what's done is done

i've set myself free

the chains have fallen

and it's all about me

 

had to find my own way and my life was full of twisting turns

but every slamming cell door was an opening and a lesson learned

i discovered honor, no thanks to you, and finally i decoded love

and i stand here a good man, head is up high, in a world that i'm a product of

 

hate me, hate me

 

but i can do this thing

stand on my own

it's not about you

just leave me alone

 

yes, you did what you did

but i broke free

and the tears are falling

but they're not about me

 

so goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

you should be thankful that there ain't no hell

so long, so wrong, so long

no, there ain't no hell any more

 

can you hear me?
