Rules Were Made to Break Me

作曲：Levi Stoker

作词：Levi Stoker

There's a textbook on the table

And a gamble in the hall

A thousand tiny lines drawn

To make a grown man feel small

They handed me the blueprint

Said build your life this way

But this man in my marrow didn't have a word to say

I've been sitting in the corner taping up my hands

While they were busy building castles

Out of shifting desert sand

The first one said be quiet so I learned how to roar

The second said be humble so I kicked down a door

That tried to wrap my spirit

In a suit of sunday clothes

But I'm the kind of stone

That only the jagged mountain knows

Every thou shall knock was just a target on the wall

I'm the wrecking ball arriving to the center of it all

Yeah rules were made to break me

But I snap them back instead

I'm living out the chapters that they never woulda read

I'm the glitch in the machinery

The ghost inside the deer

I'd traded in my safety for the absence of my fear

Let 'em write another law

Let them bake another cake

Oh I'm the only kind of promise

That I knew I'd have to break

One for the silence

Two for the shame

Three for the ones who don't remember my name

I'm stepping through the ropes

And I'm burning up the script

I'm the master of the land and

Even when the floor has slipped

Yeah rules were made to break me

But I stepped on back instead

I'm living out the chapters

That they never woulda read

I'm the batch in the machinery

The ghost inside the gear

I've traded in my safety

For the absence of my fear

Let em write another law

Let em make another day

I'm the only kind a promise

That I knew I'd have to break

Keep your line

Keep your fences

I'm over the top

And I ain't coming back
