Gaining Ground Lyrics by Dark Shift

Gaining Ground

2006

When I wake up everyday my dreams relive my mind
Always wanted the best of you and I'm running out of time
The wars, moving closer, son of king, mayhem I reign
Step back, and move forward, what you think that I'm insane?
Hey!
I can live my life anyway I choose, yeah
Come on!
I can live my life, and theres no way I can lose, yeah
When I look into those eyes, I see how you betray
Try to cast me from above. but I'll do it my own way
I know who you are, where you have been, and what you've gonе
Listen here what I say, I won't stop until I'vе won
Hey!
I can live my life anyway I choose, yeah
Come on!
I can live my life and theres no way I can lose, yeah!
I can be what I wanna be, how do you know what is right for me?
Don't you ever tell me what you want me to be, that's then the life I lived
I can do what I wanna do, don't fucking choose, that's just for you
Don't you ever tell me what you want me to do, I'm gaining ground on you

Hey!
I can live my life anyway I choose, yeah
Come on!
I can live my life and theres no way I can lose, yeah!
I can be what I wanna be, how do you know what is right for me?
Don't you ever tell me what you want me to be, that's then the life I lived
I can do what I wanna do, don't fucking choose, that's just for you!
Don't you ever tell me what you want me to do, I'm gaining ground on you!

(Solo)

Everybody looks at me as if I don't belong
I do what I wanna do, so how can that be wrong?
Who are you to tell me, what I can and cannot be?
I am who I am, you can't that away from me
Hey!
I can live my life anyway I choose, yeah!
Come on!
I can live my life and theres no way I can lose, yeah!
I can be what I wanna be, how do you know what is right for me?
Don't you ever tell me what you want me to be, that's then the life I lived
I can do what I wanna do, don't fucking choose, that's just for you
Don't you ever tell me what you want me to do, I'm gaining ground on you!
