Lookin' at the devil, grinnin' at his gun
Fingers start shakin', I begin to run

Bullets start chasin', I begin to stop
We begin to wrestle I was on the top

Want to thank you for letting me be myself again
I wanna thank you for letting me be myself again

Stiff all in the collar, fluffy in the face
Chit chat chatter tryin', I begin to run

Want to thank you for the party, I could never stay
Many thangs is on my mind, words in the way

Want to thank you for letting me be myself again
Thank you for letting me be myself again

Dance to the music
All nite long
Everyday people
Sing a simple song

Mama's so happy
Mama start to cry
Papa still singin'
You can make it if you try

I want to thank you for letting me be myself again
Thank you for letting me be myself again

Flamin' eyes of people fear, burnin' into you
Many men are missin' much, hatin' what they do

Youth and truth are makin' love
Dig it for a starter
Dyin' young is hard to take
Sellin' out is harder

I want to thank you for letting me be myself again
Thank you for letting me be myself again
