Alamo lyrics

Please give me a reason to believe all the lies

'Cause my teachers and the media are ghouls in disguise

Abusing their authority to proselytize

But nothing they report to me could change my mind

I need a vacation from the way things have been

Because I’m growing impatient, yeah, it’s boiling my skin

Had enough manipulation, can you just let me live?

Mmm, live my life

I’m not gonna give in if I have to fight

Then I’m willing to give my life, rather die

Than lay down on my back, got no white flag to throw

This is my Alamo, this, this is my Alamo

Please give me a reason to give up on myself

You can tell me that it’s treason, this is stand and rebel

I won’t pledge you my allegiance, I’ll just bid you farewell

And goodbye

I’m not gonna give in if I have to fight

Then I’m willing to give my life, rather die

Than lay down on my back, got no white flag to throw

This is my Alamo, this, this is my Alamo

I know that on the surface it might seem like I’m just fine

But I can’t eat, I barely sleep, sometimes I wanna run and hide

Feel like I’m dying in this cage

My soul is trapped, I feel confined

And I just wish they’d let me out, so I could finally live my life

I know that on the surface it might seem like I’m just fine

But I can’t eat, I barely sleep, sometimes I wanna run and hide

Feel like I’m dying in this cage

My soul is trapped, I feel confined

And I just wish they’d let me out, so I could finally live my life

I’m not gonna give in if I have to fight

Then I’m willing to give my life, rather die

Than lay down on my back, got no white flag to throw

I’m not gonna give in if I have to fight

Then I’m willing to give my life, rather die

Than lay down on my back, got no white flag to throw

This is my Alamo, this, this is my Alamo
