Set It Off - Why Not Me lyrics
[Set It Off - Why Not Me lyrics]
I'm watching my friends all succeed
Honestly, they deserve it
But I'm selfishly over here asking:
"Why not me?"
We're all driving to the same place
I'm just stuck in the slow lane
I impatiently wait while they pass me
Why not me?
When I'm down
And biting the dust
A little voice is shouting "get up"
'Cause when it hurts
I'm brushing it off
Dig down deep and say
Why not me?
With the odds up against me
I'm not gonna let me down
Can't stop me
Might be down for the count
But don't you ever count me out
I take shots of pain
Watch that flicker turn to flame
Dig down deep
Say "why not me?"
Fixated I sharpen my teeth
Underdogs getting hungry
I've been biding my time
I've been waiting
Hide and seek
What I'm missing
The thoughts
Of me giving up fade away
'Cause I live it, I breathe it
I can't be defeated
That's when I say
When I'm down
And biting the dust
A little voice is shouting get up
'Cause when it hurts
I'm brushing it off
Dig down deep and say
"Why not me?"
Why not me?
With the odds up against me
I'm not gonna let me down
Can't stop me
Might be down for the count but
Don't you ever count me out
I take shots of pain
Watch that flicker turn to flame
Dig down deep
Say "why not me?"
Hide and seek
What I'm missing
The thoughts of me
Giving up fade away
'Cause I live it, I breathe it
I can't be defeated
That's when I say
(When I say, when I say)
Why not me?
With the odds up against me
I'm not gonna let me down
Can't stop me
Might be down for the count but
Don't you ever count me out
I take shots of pain
Watch that flicker turn to flame
Dig down deep
Say "why not me?"
Honestly, they deserve it
But I'm selfishly over here asking:
"Why not me?"
We're all driving to the same place
I'm just stuck in the slow lane
I impatiently wait while they pass me
Why not me?
When I'm down
And biting the dust
A little voice is shouting "get up"
'Cause when it hurts
I'm brushing it off
Dig down deep and say
Why not me?
With the odds up against me
I'm not gonna let me down
Can't stop me
Might be down for the count
But don't you ever count me out
I take shots of pain
Watch that flicker turn to flame
Dig down deep
Say "why not me?"
Fixated I sharpen my teeth
Underdogs getting hungry
I've been biding my time
I've been waiting
Hide and seek
What I'm missing
The thoughts
Of me giving up fade away
'Cause I live it, I breathe it
I can't be defeated
That's when I say
When I'm down
And biting the dust
A little voice is shouting get up
'Cause when it hurts
I'm brushing it off
Dig down deep and say
"Why not me?"
Why not me?
With the odds up against me
I'm not gonna let me down
Can't stop me
Might be down for the count but
Don't you ever count me out
I take shots of pain
Watch that flicker turn to flame
Dig down deep
Say "why not me?"
Hide and seek
What I'm missing
The thoughts of me
Giving up fade away
'Cause I live it, I breathe it
I can't be defeated
That's when I say
(When I say, when I say)
Why not me?
With the odds up against me
I'm not gonna let me down
Can't stop me
Might be down for the count but
Don't you ever count me out
I take shots of pain
Watch that flicker turn to flame
Dig down deep
Say "why not me?"
