Strange, living with a name
They get the best of me
But I'm not walking away
I don't complain
Not that much to change
But they keep testing me
And I get beat in the face
But there they go
I'mma hit the road
And what would I care
Hell I ain't goin nowhere
I got the rain
The curse always made up
And make a play up
So I know I'mma show
It's my show
I must go
With my soul
Not my hand
Where I stand
It's my role
It's my soul
And every single girl
Sitting on a pretty thing
I ain't seekin to have
It's safe to say
If I don't get this out of me
I might quite easily
End up dead or just mad
Cross my 'T''s
Try to dot my 'I''s
But that's just blind of me
I ain''t livin that way
I roll my sleeves
And make a better man of me
I might easily just give up on the show
It's my show
It's my show
I must go
With my soul
Not my hand
Where I stand
It's my role
It's my show
I must show
It's my show
I must go
With my soul
Not my hand
Where I stand
It's my role
It's my show
It's my show
It's my show
They get the best of me
But I'm not walking away
I don't complain
Not that much to change
But they keep testing me
And I get beat in the face
But there they go
I'mma hit the road
And what would I care
Hell I ain't goin nowhere
I got the rain
The curse always made up
And make a play up
So I know I'mma show
It's my show
I must go
With my soul
Not my hand
Where I stand
It's my role
It's my soul
And every single girl
Sitting on a pretty thing
I ain't seekin to have
It's safe to say
If I don't get this out of me
I might quite easily
End up dead or just mad
Cross my 'T''s
Try to dot my 'I''s
But that's just blind of me
I ain''t livin that way
I roll my sleeves
And make a better man of me
I might easily just give up on the show
It's my show
It's my show
I must go
With my soul
Not my hand
Where I stand
It's my role
It's my show
I must show
It's my show
I must go
With my soul
Not my hand
Where I stand
It's my role
It's my show
It's my show
It's my show

They get the best of me is a reference to the band he feels he leads the show, thats what feeds them and he's had enough but he's not walking away. this one verse explains the whole song about the problems in the band
They could go off
And hit the road
And what would I care
Hell I ain't goin nowhere
I got the reigns
Strain...
McFearless - A throw to the cliche notion of following the lazy turbid path. A catch 22, an oxymoron?
Its my show...try and convince yourself.
Not my hand, where I stand...One must be animated, moving to liven the spirit within. Your free will is an anchor - you are released from the common light - you hear a voice within, you have an inner dialogue.
Keep testing me, feeding their face, I aint seeking to have - What are you looking for? Why do you do it? What do you give up? Where do you go? Where are you?
With my soul, not my hand - Can you find it within yourself to manifest your spirit in your daily action?
I identify with these thoughts and feelings when I hear this song.
Love to all.
-Will

"Me?"
i used to think the lyrics went 'strange, liveing with the fame,
i can't complain. . .' and that it was about being famous. i liked thinking that but i think it does have the same meaning. kings are unreal.
anyone know what they are saying im going crazy over it?
