One person's lie is just another man's truth

"I was born in that summer when the sun didn't shine
I was given the name that doesn't feel like it's mine
Lived my life as the good boy I was told I should be
Prayed every night to a religion that was chosen for me

Sold my soul, broke my bones, tell me, what did I get?
Did my time, told the line, ain't seen anything yet
Strike me down to the ground, you know I've seen it before
Make it hurt, I'll eat the dirt, I just don't care anymore

How could you break my heart?
Already played my part
I kept my promise man
Show me the promiseland

Don't occupy my throne
Give me the crown I own
I lived like you told me how
Look at me now"
