Can't Tell Me Lyrics

It's all politics, but I ain't political

Critical to be in the know, yeah, I live to grow

Sick of those foes who look down, have some simple goals

I'll never be meeting your ass under the mistletoe

No, I don't take orders from a phony

Take a step back, don't pretend like you know me

People like to talk, but they Hawk like Tony

Watching every play on my station, no Sony

Damn. Happy that I made it out

Played it out, disregarded amounts in bank accounts

Now I'm finally on track, rehabilitating sprinter

I'll never get as low as I was last winter

I'm on attack, someday came suddenly

Rather take a chance & let the world pummel me

It took time, but now I can finally see

Walked away on my own, now I am finally free

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit

Twelve years, it took me twelve years just to give myself a chance

Used to standing on my heels, finally changed my stance

Glanced at my life, it's been a quarter of a century

Never even tried to do what I thought was best for me

So I bargained a plea, accused of excuses

Of why I couldn't do this. Made me feel so useless

I wasn't clueless, just couldn't shake the habit

Knew what I wanted, just thought I'd never have it

Now I'm working, still feel the pressure lurking

Telling me that I should give it up, be a normal person

But I'm purging thoughts like that, making waves like a sturgeon

Now I'm surfing on these beats, cut them up like a surgeon

Still learning, but it's only the beginning

Charlie Sheen the way I'm winning, put the time in, extra innings

Time is ticking, at least I'm on my own time

Went for it on fourth down, I was on the goal line

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit

You can't tell me shit
