I've been plotting my escape for a while now
Trying to figure out the when and how
Because I hate myself when you're around
You've always got me feeling down
It's not my skin you're wearing
It's not my shoes you're walking in
It's my life that I'm living
And I don't care what kind of man you think I am
No no no
But if I'm not like you well then it ain't that bad
You'll never know
How hard I tried to make you see a little bit of good in me
But if you can't the least you can do is let me go
I've been plotting my escape for a while now
Trying to figure out the when and how
You know I'd do anything to make you proud
But now I'm telling you that I want out
It's not my skin you're wearing
It's not my shoes you're walking in
It's my life that I'm living
And I don't care what kind of man you think I am
No no no
But if I'm not like you well then it ain't that bad
You'll never know
How hard I tried to make you see a little bit of good in me
But if you can't the least you can do is let me go
So don't call me judas
Cause you're no messiah
You're just a liar with a god complex
And it's not that complicated
And don't call me Brutus
You were never my ruler
Don't go get a seizure when I say you're no Caesar
It's not that complicated
And don't call me peter Pettigrew
Just because I finally grew some confidence and stood up to you
Oh, it's not that complicated
It's not my skin you're wearing
It's not my shoes you're walking in
It's my life that I'm living
And I don't care what kind of man you think I am
No no no
But if I'm not like you well then it ain't that bad
You'll never know
How hard I tried to make you see a little bit of good in me
But if you can't the least you can do is let me go
No I don't care what kind of man you think I am
No
But if I'm not like you well then it ain't that bad
You'll never know
How hard I tried to make you see a little bit of good in me
But if you can't the least you can do is let me go
