[Intro] So... What is it like to live with my brain... Well... There's a misconception that I'm insane... You see... If you choose not to follow the same old rules... Then... You'll be forever questioned by the same old fools... But I never want my thoughts to dissipate... Because... I'm proud of the words I articulate... [Chorus] My mind is my own, so I write my own words... No, I don't want to comply and follow the herds... I am me! Let me be free! I am me! Let me be free! Why can't you see! That sabotaging another isn't the way to be! [Verse 1] So here we go again! No, the sword will never be mightier than the pen! Yes, you can swing your blade, but what then! Who, why, when! I'm just so sick of all these egotistical men! I hear you! I've had enough! Why act all tough, then disappear when times get rough! What good is talking gruff! If your words are just a bit of fluff? Yeah, I know they don't like it when I call their bluff! But I will always delve deeper to expose this stuff! [Chorus] My mind is my own, so I write my own words... No, I don't want to comply and follow the herds... I am me! Let me be free! I am me! Let me be free! Why can't you see! That sabotaging another isn't the way to be! [Tempo Shift] [Verse 2] Blah! Blah! Blah! Yeah! Nah! I'm an Aussie bloke who refuses to choke! I don't care where you sit. Left, right, or woke! Blah! Blah! Blah! Just stop with the cover! And be nice to one another. Love everyone, your sister and your brother! Care for humanity like you care for your lover! Blah... Blah... Blah... You don't need a God or political leader to do the right thing... It's not hard to temper your thoughts so your words don't sting... There doesn't have to be a cause... for you to stop and pause... Dissect... Reflect... And try not to project... Blah! Blah! Blah! [Chorus] My mind is my own, so I write my own words... No, I don't want to comply and follow the herds... I am me! Let me be free! I am me! Let me be free! Why can't you see! That sabotaging another isn't the way to be... [Outro] So... What is it like to live with my brain... Well... There's a misconception that I'm insane... You see... If you choose not to follow the same old rules... Then... You'll be forever questioned by the same old fools... But I never want my thoughts to dissipate... Because...
