I WON'T FOLLOW

Don't you shake your head

Don't you tell me no

Take your leash and leave

No...

I won't follow

You're a hustling fraud

And you got me good

With your pretty looks 

Like you knew you would

Yeah...

I was crawling low

When I followed

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Man, I won't trail your heels

Like your little pet

While I still have some sense 

Of my self respect

It's the only thing

You haven't taken yet

God knows you didn't have far to go..

There wasn't far to go

When I followed

~~*~~

You just back away

Don't you touch me now

Or you'll exceed the bounds

Of all I will allow

Leave, get lost, just go....

No...

I won't follow

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~

Only a fool would follow you

And I wasn't raised as one

Yeah, it was close, it was touch and go

On what I would become

So many stones were thrown

When I followed

~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Man, I won't trail your heels

Like your little pet

While I still have some sense 

Of my self respect

It's the only thing

You haven't taken yet

God knows you didn't have far to go..

There wasn't far to go

When I followed

~~*~~

~~~*Finale*~~~

Elation for tomorrows

On this road I've cleared of sorrow

Yeah...

Oh Yeah...

I didn't follow

~~*~~
