shades of Gray

I make now a stand for belief that Im steadfast
In hating all of the ******** you give me about my future, present and past
Who are you to infringe your values upon me, Ive learned the hard way
Stepping on my toes, youve put my back to the wall, my back to the wall
Ive been told a thousand times to give respect when due
Why do you find it so hard to believe Ive got none for you
Its my heart and my mind that Ill always follow, I will not break
Nor will my balls, although that Ive seen that youve tried before
Why are people fake ?
Chorus:
Maybe youre older, wiser in your own right, its your mistake
Im gonna do my own thing regardless, my choice to make
I am real, in touch with my feelings, and I know my place
You have shown, on the other hand, both sides of your face
I see the world in a different light
Things no always black and white
Through all these years still, to this day
My hardened eyes see only shades of grey
I would never try and tell you what was right from wrong
Maybe thats why you feel that I dont belong
Always put me down for things Ive said and done
Cant you see its a war that cant be won
Lead
A war that cant be won
Living in your world seems so clear on concise
Shutting out reality makes everything so nice
Paint a pretty picture black and white everyday
See my tattered canvass bleeding shades of grey
Chorus
