Step.

Step back, step away,
kindly stay the [bad word] away from me,
what I am is what I am.
Let me live as I please, more than just a name,
number, pawn, puppet, [bad word] it.
I'm a man, person, look, see, closer please, touch, feel,
flesh, yes real, like you I bleed, I hurt, I touch, I [bad word]  I need.
I possess what you need, individuality, often heard of, rarely seen.
Let [bad word] clean.

You can't take this away from me,
You can't take this away from me,
You can't take this away from me,
You can't take this away!

Step back, keep away, keep yourself to yourself
your opinion on a shelf, your presence isn't [bad word]  but felt,
Never tasted life, just smelt. Folded rather than gamble,
Deal with what was dealt. Bitterness felt.

Sucked into a circle of fools and tools [bad word] 
Wanting all to conform to the norm and lose.
Submit to fit, [bad word] that, suck this. [bad word] like pigs in [bad word]  Waist high and you still sit.

You can't take this away from me,
You can't take this away from me,
You can't take this away from me,
You can't take this away!

You!
You!
You!
You!

Wide awake, I'm a step ahead of all of you.
I cannot understand your narrow minded attitude.
Step beside me, stand beside me fool.
You'll always be a number,
always be another tool.
Not me, not me, not me, not this boy.
Never gonna bend, never [bad word] 
Not me, not me, not me, not this boy.
Step right down to this.

Know, know that you are nobody, nobody, nothing to me.
Brother, my [bad word]  not fit to be, and never will be.
Love thy sister, brother.
Respect for one another.
Nice dream, but where have you been?
Another planet it would seem. [bad word] back down to earth, let me show you what I've seen.
I hurt, I touch, I [bad word]  I need.

I possess what you need,
I possess what you need,
I possess what you need,
I possess what you need,
I possess what you need!

You can't take this away from me,
you can't take this away from me,
You can't take this away from me,
you can't take this away from me.

You can't take this away from me,
you can't take this away from me.
You can't take this away from me,
you can't take this away!
