The Westerner歌词

[00:00.39]I was born one morning in December
[00:02.52]On the coldest day
[00:04.14]Abandoned by my mother
[00:05.27]By my father I was raised
[00:07.01]My father raised my brother and I
[00:08.83]With a stubborn heart
[00:10.02]My mother left me her good looks and confident charm
[00:12.95].
[00:13.20]Well I spent most of my teenage years
[00:15.39]Searching for her love
[00:16.39]I could not find it anywhere
[00:17.89]So I turned to drugs
[00:19.45]And after all the smoke had cleared
[00:21.14]And it was said and done
[00:22.45]I found myself addicted by the age of 21
[00:25.45].
[00:25.83]I tell the truth
[00:28.26]I've been beaten
[00:29.83]I've been bruised
[00:30.45]I was left for dead as well
[00:31.89]I was wrongfully accused
[00:33.27]You left me locked inside a cell
[00:34.83].
[00:35.08]I've been cheated
[00:35.71]I've been sued
[00:36.33]But I have lived to tell
[00:37.76]The more you kick me when I'm down
[00:39.64]The more it truly helps
[00:40.83].
[00:41.08]I feel the madness creeping slowly
[00:44.56]Loved by many, I'm still lonely
[00:47.56]Paid the price for your mistake
[00:50.56]The music died the day I walked away
[00:54.25].
[00:57.06]No, I won't let you win
[01:01.97]Not this time my friend
[01:05.16]You know that I'm better in the end
[01:08.30]
[01:10.29]No, you won't take my pride
[01:14.98]I'll keep my head held high
[01:18.10]Cause I know that I'm better in the end
[01:22.60].
[01:25.41]
[01:29.17]Whoa,
[01:30.04]I know you're jealous
[01:31.16]And you wish you could be me
[01:32.60]I'm so smart and clever with my lyrics can't you see?
[01:35.91]There's nobody better in this music industry
[01:38.66]And in case you think you are, go ahead, give me a ring
[01:41.66].
[01:42.10]Whoa,
[01:42.42]I deserve a purple heart
[01:43.48]For all my f*cking wounds
[01:44.97]Lacerations to my ego
[01:46.35]Pride that I consume
[01:47.85].
[01:48.35]And in your final hours
[01:49.35]When you are looking back
[01:50.98]You'll find that I'm the best at what I do
[01:53.17]And that's a fact
[01:54.10].
[01:54.60]No, I won't let you win
[01:58.98]Not this time my friend
[02:02.66]You know that I'm better in the end
[02:07.73]No, you won't take my pride
[02:12.41]I'll keep my head held high
[02:15.54]Cause I know that I'm better in the end
[02:19.97]And all I got to say
[02:21.48].
[02:27.70]
[02:32.76]Take it or leave it
[02:36.07]But you best believe me it's true
[02:41.01]There's no mistaking,
[02:42.20]so please stop thinking I'm through
[02:45.94]You know I'm better than you
[02:48.20].
[03:04.12]No, I won't let you win
[03:08.86]Not this time my friend
[03:12.18]You know that I'm better in the end
[03:17.18]No, you won't take my pride
[03:21.86]I'll keep my head held high
[03:24.93]Cause I know that I'm better in the end
[03:29.86]In the end
