Self Control

[00:05.95] Up the ladder to paradise
[00:07.64] Something isn't sittin' right
[00:09.24] Since it's got so me uneasy
[00:10.84] Let me try to spell out what I mean
[00:12.74] I'm a shepherd not a sheep
[00:14.18] I'm not here to hear you preach
[00:15.44] I've got something with more speed
[00:16.91] Oh-oh-oh
[00:18.37] But every song they sing
[00:20.72] Goes hallelujah, hallelujah
[00:24.42] And every psalm and hymn
[00:26.34] Goes hallelujah, hallelujah
[00:30.66] And if it's true God's got a plan
[00:33.28] Got a will for every one of us
[00:36.89] Then wouldn't he know to let go
[00:38.78] Of the leash, and let me be me?
[00:41.62] Cuz I'll go harder, I'll go higher
[00:43.42] I don't stop, I don't get tired
[00:44.98] I don't miss, I don't misfire
[00:46.28] I don't quit when shit gets dire
[00:48.20] I don't have to do too much
[00:49.50] To prove myself, I'm good enough
[00:50.96] And if I do, I love the rush
[00:52.43] As much as I love showing up
[00:54.16] Say what you wanna wanna say
[00:56.22] I don't mind the chatter
[00:57.65] When it doesn't even matter anyway
[00:59.95] Cuz nothing can take me
[01:01.68] Away from my aim
[01:02.87] So, say what you wanna wanna
[01:04.66] Say what you wanna wanna
[01:05.87] I've got that Self Control
[01:07.47] The kind you wanna know
[01:09.02] The kind that makes you feel
[01:10.11] Like you could do it on your own
[01:11.75] No, I can't hear you now
[01:13.24] While I'm well on my way
[01:14.88] To the top of my game
[01:16.26] Yeah I've got that Self Control
[01:23.69] I've got that Self Control
[01:26.43]
[01:30.32] You do you, and I'll do me
[01:33.28] The point here is
[01:34.03] To live authentically
[01:35.78] I wouldn't know you apart
[01:37.15] From Adam or Eve
[01:38.63] That means nothing you say's
[01:40.17] Gonna get to me
[01:42.47] And they're preachin' to the choir again
[01:44.65] Amen, (Amen), Amen
[01:48.46] And I'm not listening to anything they said
[01:51.86] (Amen) Amen
[01:54.07]
[02:18.55] Now the angels we've heard on high
[02:20.96] Are breaking out in chaos up on cloud 9
[02:24.12] I told them they can't handle me
[02:25.90] I'm more than what they thought I'd be
[02:27.33] Can't top my type of energy
[02:29.16] Oh no
[02:30.65] But every song they sing
[02:32.88] Goes hallelujah, hallelujah
[02:36.64] And every psalm and hymn
[02:38.82] Goes hallelujah, hallelujah
[02:43.44] Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[02:46.20] Hallelujah
[02:48.28] Say what you wanna wanna say
[02:50.17] I don't mind the chatter
[02:51.62] When it doesn't even matter anyway
[02:53.93] Cuz nothing can take me
[02:55.82] Away from my aim
[02:57.31] So, say what you wanna wanna
[02:58.79] Say what you wanna wanna
[02:59.81] I've got that Self Control
[03:01.53] The kind you wanna know
[03:03.27] The kind that makes you feel
[03:04.25] Like you could do it on your own
[03:05.82] No, I can't hear you now
[03:07.42] While I'm well on my way
[03:09.28] To the top of my game
[03:10.29] I've got that, I've got that
[03:11.80] I've got that Self Control
[03:13.63] The kind you wanna know
[03:15.06] The kind that makes you feel
[03:16.36] Like you could do it on your own
[03:17.99] No, I can't hear you now
[03:19.32] While I'm well on my way
[03:20.88] To the top of my game
[03:22.28] Got that Self Control
[03:23.66] I'll go harder, I'll go higher
[03:25.33] I don't stop, I don't get tired
[03:26.93] I don't miss, I don't misfire
[03:28.44] I don't quit when shit gets dire
[03:30.17] I don't have to do too much
[03:31.55] To prove myself, I'm good enough
[03:33.19] And if I do, I love the rush
[03:34.68] As much as I love showing up
[03:35.83] I've got that Self Control
[03:37.76] The kind you wanna know
[03:39.10] The kind that makes you feel
[03:40.47] Like you could do it on your own
[03:41.78] No, I can't hear you now
[03:43.31] While I'm well on my way
[03:44.77] To the top of my game
[03:46.50] Got that Self Control
[03:51.05] Got that Self Control
