I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out Oh-oh-oh-oh When the sharpest words wanna cut me down I am brave, I am bruised I am who I'm meant to be, this is me And I'm marching on to the beat I drum I'm not scared to be seen I make no apologies, this is

I guess I'll never learn Cause I stay another hour or two You know I can't be found with you We get back to my house Your arms, my mouth Now I just stop myself around you A soft sound To the way she wears her hair down Covering up her face

Settle down, settle down, settle down Girl it's all over your face, there's someone taking my place Guess that's something that I'm dealing with now I guess there's nothing I can do now I see you in the city Do they know you're with me Oh, you're with me

And sit up there You've gotta let me down again I'm glad that we have found the end I've gotta find myself a friend Don't want to settle for the wrong life Don't want to hurt until I cave I reason constantly, and question why I once cared Forward in line

'Cause I'm not a shadow I'm not the ground beneath your feet When you look down, you wont see me I'll stand up and I'll stand tall, I don't follow anyone I'm not a shadow, 'cause I'm not a shadow I'm not a shadow Here's to you don't settle, and never

But your wheels just turn, down the road ahead If it hurts at all, you ain't showed it yet I keep lookin' for the slightest sign That you might miss, what you left behind I know there's nothin' stopping you now But I'd settle for a slowdown I'd settle

When you're round me Girl, when you come around me You ain't the type of lady that's known to fuck around Keep your mind on your money and you ain't looking to settle down Girl, you keep it 100, 100, 100 Yeah, girl you keep it 100, 100, 100 when you're

Mary, Mary, why you want to do me this way Mary, Mary, why you want to do me this way? I was dumb enough not to settle down when you wanted to Now I'm sittin' here going crazy trying to crawl back to you But I was smart enough to come to my senses Be who

It's not time to make a change, You're still young, that's your fault, Find a girl, settle down, If you want you can marry. Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy. Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away. I know I have to go. Just relax, take it
