I don't really care what they say

I don't really care what you do

I just know I'm sick of this crowd and of you

The cops they took me and beat me blue

It wasn't what it was or what I do

Watch your step 'cause it could just happen to you

I took a chance on the other side

I got off this downhill slide

I stopped wastin' my time

Why don't you?

Had a dream, I saw a scheme

Saw a man hang on a beam

Next thing was, I woke up screaming

It wasn't what it was or what I do

It wasn't anything to do with you

It was just being alive

I took a chance on the other side

I got off this downhill slide

I stopped wastin' my time

Why don't you?

You think you'd know by now
