  • Yeah, uh
    So whatcha waiting for?
    Anticipating more
    While you debate
    What it can take to instigate a war
    Yeah, I've been hated more than
    Time I wasn't hated for
    There's nothing they can fucking say
    They didn't say before

    You could never see it
    Your battle's not mine
    Wanna skate and play it safe
    But this is take a shot time
    You waiting for a purpose?
    I already got mine
    While you tell me "step to it like
    One, two, three, four"

    And if I do what you demand (You say)
    You'll let me understand (You say)
    You're gonna hold me to your word
    And if I sell myself away (You say)
    I'll have no debt to pay (You say)
    I'm gonna get what I deserve

    No more, obey
    My debt repaid
    Our trust betrayed
    All for nothing, all for nothing

    Came back, there's no other way to say it
    So let me break this fucker down for ya'
    I really don't know ya'
    You talk but let me show ya'
    Where to put your paranoia
    You joke and I don't half a half a sucker bone to throw ya
    I'm disgusted by what can make you tuck your tail below ya
    And no, I'm not your soldier
    I'm not taking any orders
    I'm a five-star general infantry controller
    Need a lesson, let me show ya'
    Have you checking your composure
    While I make you step to it like
    One, two, three, four

    And if I do what you demand (You say)
    You'll let me understand (You say)
    You're gonna hold me to your word
    And if I sell myself away (You say)
    I'll have no debt to pay (You say)
    I'm gonna get what I deserve

    And if I do what you demand
    You'll let me understand

    No more, obey
    My debt repaid
    Our trust betrayed
    All for nothing, all for nothing Writer/s: Brad Delson, Chester Charles Bennington, David Farrell, Joseph Hahn, Mike Shinoda, Robert G. Bourdon
