Different But the Same Lyrics
Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
There's no time to phone home when you're racing your own time
You contemplate, you gotta wait your own turn
Up the noise, with some poison with great poise
You can't compare it to or let it scare you through
If everything you do is not as smoothly as we plannedYou gotta understand there is more for you
But all you gotta do is put yourself with the people
They're the ones who make the world spin
Lust in favor, you can win
And you'll take home the gold medallion
And ride the wobbly wave of fame
That is why you came, that is why youCame to your senses to feel it out and try to kill off every doubt
Your mother worries but no one worries quite like you
And when you start you must rely on your own heart
'Cause nothing works the same or takes the blame or wins the game
With your head in your hands in the pouring rain
I wanna see you as you are like a lonely starThere is more for you
But all you gotta do is put yourself with the people
They're the ones who make the world spin
Lust in favor, you can win
And you'll take home the gold medallion
And ride the wobbly wave of fame
That is why you came, that is why you cameYou gotta be strong, you gotta teach your son
How to stand up straight when you want to run
How to care and love, how to be yourself
To be different but the same
