Disrespecting me I feel it to the core 
You keep dismissing me like I am nothing more 
Than just another guy to push around 
It don't matter what I say, it's still the same 
I've been doing more 
Than you could ever survive 
Confident, I'm in control 
And it's my life 

I'm almost sorry for you 
You don't know what you're getting into 
I'm not sorry for the things I do 
But I'm almost sorry 
I'm almost sorry for you 
You don't know what you're getting into 
You won't know me till you know the [bad word] 
And I'm almost sorry for you 

I'm so tired of everything being a fight 
If you'd listen you would see sometimes I'm right 
I hate the fact that my life's one big defense 
And it's all because of people like you, and 
I've been doing more 
Than you will ever know 
You make no effort to know me 
That's 'cause you're too busy messing with me 

I'm almost sorry for you 
You don't know what you're getting into 
I'm not sorry for the things I do 
But I'm almost sorry 
I'm almost sorry for you 
You don't know what you're getting into 
You won't know me till you know the [bad word] 
And I'm almost sorry for you 

Despite of what you think I'm not desperate 'Cause 
I don't need you, I've still got it 
Give me some respect, you might get it 
Why don't you try some time
