You'll probably see this in the headlines And let me tell you, almost all of it's true But we both know that I'm dead right And I don't know what else you want me to do I've been saying this a long time Not a lot of people hear what I say So when you see it in the headlines Maybe then you'll see it's always this way They'll try to twist and turn and try to drown me out But that won't change my mind If I'm honest, I'm not afraid to die Not afraid to live, not afraid to try If I'm honest, you couldn't change my mind Couldn't break me down So don't waste your time If I'm honest, I'll-I'll be alright You can put me in the spotlight And the world will try to pull me one way But it's gonna be a long night I've been around the block and I know this game I won't wait until it feels right 'Cause the truth is something long overdue You could put me in the spotlight Maybe then my words would finally break through They'll try to twist and turn and try to drown me out But that won't change my mind If I'm honest, I'm not afraid to die Not afraid to live, not afraid to try If I'm honest, you couldn't change my mind Couldn't break me down So don't waste your time If I'm honest, I'll-I'll be alright They'll try to twist and turn and try to drown me out But that won't change my mind If I'm honest, I'm not afraid to die Not afraid to live, not afraid to try If I'm honest, you couldn't change my mind Couldn't break me down So don't waste your time If I'm honest, I'll-I'll be alright I'll-I'll be alright
