Out of my way
Out of my, way

I can't pass up this opportunity to make myself absurd,
I can't pass up this opportunity to make myself be heard.
Would you, like to, be the one who sees me lose this all,
Would you, like to, be the one who sees me fall.

[Chorus]
Nobody's gonna stand in my way
Give it up son, I'm doin' this my way
Nobody's gonna stand in my way
Give it up son, I'm doin' this my way

You like to think the worst is over now, but you can't breathe at all
You like to think you're owed a favor now, man you've seen it all

Did you, want to, be the one who pushed me off the wall,
Did you, want to, be the one who let me fall.

[Chorus]

You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down

I can't pass up this opportunity to make myself absurd,
I can't pass up this opportunity to make myself be heard.
Would you, like to, be the one who sees me lose this all,
Would you, like to, be the one who sees me fall.

[Chorus]

Nobody's gonna stand in my way
Give it up, I'm doin' this my way
Nobody's gonna stand in my way
Give it up, I'm doin' this my way
Out of my way

    General Comment:I think not as much about being badass as more of a song after people have been doubting you your whole life you get up and prove them wrong.

    General Comment:It definitely has a connection to the songs "Broken" and "Call Me When You're Sober" and his relationship with Amy Lee.

    "You like to think the worst is over now, but you cant breathe at all" relates to "The worst is over now And we can breathe again" in Broken. "Would you, like to, be the one who sees me lose this all,
    Would you, like to, be the one who sees me fall" relates to "Should have let you fall and lose it all" in Call Me When You're Sober.

    General Comment:I love this song, so full of fight and aggression. I think that the theory that this is about Shaun's parents make a great deal of sense. It would make use of the term "son" all the more ironic. Unlike so much of the music out there, with the whole "emo" fad and whatnot, this song is about meeting problems head on and overcoming them, not sitting back and whining in self-pity.

    General Comment:This song is simply awesome! I heard it twice before downloading it; on the Freddy vs. Jason soundtrack and on WWE's Zach Gowen's entrance music. That guy was awesome for someone with only one leg.

    General Comment:Take back what I had said earlier. While this song was used for Zach Gowen's entrance theme this song was orignally written by Seether for WWE wrestler Kurt Angle and was orignally going to be released on the WWE Forceable Entry Soundtrack.

    It was based off his entrance theme, but the song was shot down from release because it strayed to much from his orignal theme.

    General Comment:I believe that this song and "Broken" have a connection...but it might be just me

    Broken: "The worst is over now and we can breathe again"

    Out of my Way: "You like to think the worst is over now, but you cant breathe at all"
