“YOU CAN’T BREAK ME” [Intro — quiet guitar, distant thunder] You think you know me… You think you've seen my limit… Then come closer. [Verse 1] I built my life on a promise That the harder I fight, the more I'll gain But every mountain I climbed Had another waiting in the rain I hear the voices from behind me Every word they ever said Every failure keeps reminding me Of the war inside my head You don't have to take my money You don't have to take my home Just convince me all this suffering Means I'm fighting all alone [Pre-Chorus] So you whisper... "You're not enough." And I answer... "Maybe I'm not." But that's not where this ends. [CHORUS — HUGE GUITARS] YOU CAN BREAK MY PRIDE! YOU CAN TAKE MY DREAMS! YOU CAN DRAG ME THROUGH THE FIRE TILL I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS! YOU CAN MAKE ME FALL! YOU CAN MAKE ME BLEED! YOU CAN TELL ME I'M A FAILURE— BUT YOU DON'T GET TO TELL ME WHO I'M MEANT TO BE! [Verse 2] Put me underneath the pressure Let the whole room watch me fail Let the stronger man control me Let me feel that familiar hell Sixteen months and still I'm asking "Why the hell don't I know what to do?" Maybe I'm not built for fighting Maybe all my dreams aren't true Then the old voices start laughing "See? We always knew you'd break." But something underneath the silence Starts telling me: "Get up again." [Pre-Chorus] You thought my doubt was weakness. You thought my fear was proof. You thought if I questioned everything... I'd eventually question You. [CHORUS] YOU CAN BREAK MY PRIDE! YOU CAN TAKE MY DREAMS! YOU CAN DRAG ME THROUGH THE FIRE TILL I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS! YOU CAN MAKE ME FALL! YOU CAN MAKE ME BLEED! YOU CAN TELL ME I'M A FAILURE— BUT YOU DON'T GET TO TELL ME WHO I'M MEANT TO BE! [Bridge — music drops almost completely] Go ahead. Take the victories. Take the belt. Take the applause. Take the plans I spent years building. Take the certainty. Take the answer I've been begging for. Tell me: "Maybe this isn't meant for you." [Silence] ... Maybe it isn't. [Guitar begins building] But I'll decide that. Not you. [BREAKDOWN — HEAVY] I'M NOT THE LOSS! I'M NOT THE FAILURE! I'M NOT THE VOICE THAT SAYS I'LL NEVER BE ENOUGH! I'M NOT THE ROUND THAT I LOST! I'M NOT THE DREAM THAT DIDN'T COME TRUE! I'M THE MAN WHO GETS TO DECIDE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT! [Final Chorus — Full Band] YOU CAN BREAK MY PRIDE! YOU CAN TAKE MY DREAMS! YOU CAN DRAG ME THROUGH THE FIRE TILL I'M CRAWLING ON MY KNEES! BUT I'LL GET BACK UP! EVEN IF I'M AFRAID! EVEN IF I DON'T KNOW WHICH ROAD TO TAKE! YOU CAN WIN THE BATTLE— BUT YOU DON'T OWN ME! [Outro — clean guitar] The Accuser whispers: "I almost had him." Batman-like silence. Then: "No." "You had his doubt." "You never had him." 🎸
