[Intro] (low, biting) yeah... watch me... [Verse 1] Talk is cheap and so is doubt Every word just knocks me out Used to flinch, now I don't Used to beg, now I won't Everybody countin' me out Perfect, that's what I'm about Watch the wreckage turn to gold Watch me rise from what they sold [Pre-Chorus] No more askin', no more waitin' I've been done with hesitatin' Every doubt's a match I'm strikin' Watch the whole thing catch and brighten [Chorus] Teeth out, chin up Ain't backin' down, had enough Every hit just makes me tougher Teeth out, chin up Burn the bridge and call it love World can't break what it can't touch Teeth out, chin up Ain't backin' down, had enough Every hit just makes me tougher Teeth out, chin up Burn the bridge and call it love World can't break what it can't touch [Verse 2] Grew up hard, learned it early Nobody's carryin' me, not nearly Every scar's a lesson paid for Every fall's a reason made for More, one more, one more round Knock me down, I won't stay down Ain't waitin' on nobody's hand I built this fire, I'm the plan [Pre-Chorus] No more askin', no more waitin' I've been done with hesitatin' Every doubt's a match I'm strikin' Watch the whole thing catch and brighten [Chorus] Teeth out, chin up Ain't backin' down, had enough Every hit just makes me tougher Teeth out, chin up Burn the bridge and call it love World can't break what it can't touch Teeth out, chin up Ain't backin' down, had enough Every hit just makes me tougher Teeth out, chin up Burn the bridge and call it love World can't break what it can't touch [Verse 3] Used to want somebody near me Now the silence doesn't scare me Learned to love the empty room Learned to turn the dark to fuel Every no just fed the fire Every wall just built me higher Ain't nobody handed this Every inch I earned with grit [Bridge] (intense, half-screamed) I DON'T NEED IT, I DON'T NEED IT Never did, never did (quieter, cracking) but I wanted it, I wanted it Guess that's why I'm still standin' [Chorus] Teeth out, chin up Ain't backin' down, had enough Every hit just makes me tougher Teeth out, chin up Burn the bridge and call it love World can't break what it can't touch Teeth out, chin up Ain't backin' down, had enough Every hit just makes me tougher Teeth out, chin up Burn the bridge and call it love World can't break what it can't touch [Outro] (fading, defiant) ...teeth out... teeth out...
