Mmvii lyrics
Why do I need to justify my opinion, after all that I�ve seen and done? And year after year, we give our everything to get nothing in return. The time has come for things to change. We don�t need your adoration, but we demand your respect. I will not allow anyone the opportunity to deny half a decade of labor. The places we�ve been, the faces we�ve seen, the months spent far from home. This is what moves us. This is what we�ve grown accustom to. What we will leave behind can not be measured in a dollar figure. There�s a much deeper meaning than that. I can�t wait until the day when we�ve surpassed everything that gave you a false sense of importance. I want you to question yourself. I want you to watch you slip away. I want you to realize that your existence has meant nothing. I hate you more than you could ever fucking know. And I hate you for making me feel like this. I know deep down that I�m a good person, but my patience is wearing thin. The best retaliation I can think of, would be to let you know that for once in my life, I�m truly happy. I�m more than content with who and where I am. Your oppression has had no effect. I don�t need to justify my opinion after everything we�ve been through. And year after year, we give our everything and what we receive in return, I can�t explain with words. I�m so fucking thankful that I made it to where I am today. (I watched the world upon your shoulders, and from these heights it�s so far down.)
