You hold the torch
You light the way
But what do you know about integrity?
I bow to no one

A system's in place
Water it down
Pretend to be something you're not
A system's in place
Water it down
Pretend to be someone that you're not

We are better
We are stronger
We are more than you'll ever be
We don't need you

You look the part
Aesthetically pleasing but missing the point
Diluting the purpose of why we exist
This is something you cannot force
Respect where respect is due
But I will never lie through my teeth
Respect where respect is due
But I will never lie through my teeth

We are better
We are stronger
We are more than you'll ever be
We don't need you
We don't need you
We don't need you
We don't need you

Thought we wouldn't survive?
You thought wrong
Without bowing down?
You thought wrong
Without selling out?
You thought wrong
Thought I lived for you?
You thought wrong

Cherish this time while it lasts
I promise you'll remember my fucking name
Eventually they'll see through it all
And then you'll surrender your crown
We don't need you
