Competition Lyrics by Detective

It Takes One to Know One

0

So much goin' on
It grates on my nerves
I tear out my throat
Tryin' to be heard

I'm beatin' my hands
Against a stone wall
I'm too tired to stand up
Too weak to crawl

And always somebody
Would step ahead of me
And someone behind would [?]
Competition made a fool out of me

Been hangin' so long
I'm losin' my grip
There's no one around
To catch me if I slip

Sometimes it clears up
I can finally see
I'd give up my soul
To be [?]

Competition has made a fool out of me
Competition made a fool out of me

Competition

So much goin' on
Grates on my nerves
Tear out my throat
Tryin' to be heard

Bеatin' my hands
Against a stone wall
Too tired to stand up
Too weak to crawl

Compеtition made a fool out of me
Competition, baby, made a fool out of me
