[Verse 1]

Why do we build up all these idols

Just to watch 'em fall?

You're wearin' the crown, toast of the town

Then no one takes your call

[Bridge]

Yeah, maybe I've been down, down, down, down

But I always come back around, 'round, 'round, 'round

[Chorus]

You can't forget about me

While you weren't lookin', I was gettin' even higher

Say what you want about me

Your words are gasoline on my fire

You can hate me, underestimate me

Do what you do 'cause what you do don't phase me

Just when you think I'm at the end

Any second, I'ma catch my second wind

[Verse 2]

An airplane's only paper 'til it finds a breeze

But don't you know that it's the low that makes the high so sweet?

When they try to break, break, break you

That's when you get your break, break, breakthrough

Yeah

[Chorus]

You can't forget about me

While you weren't lookin', I was gettin' even higher

Say what you want about me

Your words are gasoline on my fire

You can hate me, underestimate me

Do what you do 'cause what you do don't phase me

Just when you think I'm at the end

Any second, I'ma catch my second wind

[Bridge]

I've been down, down, down, down

But I always come back around, 'round, 'round, 'round

Yeah

[Chorus]

You can't forget about me

While you weren't lookin', I was gettin' even higher

Say what you want about me

Your words are gasoline on my fire

You can hate me, underestimate me

Do what you do 'cause what you do don't phase me

Just when you think I'm at the end

Any second, I'ma catch my second wind
