[Intro: Elias Soriano]

You know…

Sometimes, we do things for strange reasons

We find ourselves explaining ourselves… for things we shouldn't have to explain!

So I live by a particular rule. This is a recent rule of mine, where I do not explain myself

So do what the fuck you do! Fuck the rest!

This songs called “Explain Myself.”

Come on, Fort Lauderdale!

I wanna see you moving!


[Verse 1: Elias Soriano]

Like a watchdog standin’ at the fence

Beggin’ for the next person to pass and test his patience

Hammer back, cocked, and ready to go off

Lookin’ for any volunteers that want crawl and cough

Stands up front when it’s time to take

A maybe situation to a definite shake-it-up

Battle me, you’re gonna see everything go red

Bother me with your Grand Inquisition

[Chorus 1: Elias Soriano & Andrew Goldman]

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I (Explain myself to you?)

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I (Explain myself?)


[Verse 2: Elias Soriano]

Ooh, you’re gettin’ too close to the animal

The one you’re gonna turn into a cannibal

I'm not holdin’ anything back

So you better be holdin’ if I start to attack

Racked up body all scarred from the battles before

But I call them my “monetary marks of war”

You see, battle started with or without any kind of warnin’

Knew that it was comin’, did nothin’ about it

[Chorus 2: Elias Soriano & Andrew Goldman]

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I (Explain myself to you?)

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I (Explain myself to you?)

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I (Explain myself to you?)

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I?


[Bridge: Elias Soriano]

Oh, to you

To you, to you

To you, to you

To you

Oh, to you

Take it easy, you’re goin’ too far

Don’t wanna keep this car in the red

Don’t wanna start, you just can't end

By just pretendin’ that you ain’t gonna bend

Instead, you’re lookin’ right into the eyes of a savage

Ready to pillage, loot, and ravage

You’ve never seen anything act like this

Or react the second you end up on the list

You end up on the list

You end up on the list

You end up on the list

[Chorus 3: Elias Soriano & Andrew Goldman]

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I (Explain myself to you?)

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I (Explain myself to you?)

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I (Explain myself to you?)

I won’t, and I shouldn’t have to

Why should I (Explain myself to you?)


[Outro: Elias Soriano]

Oh, to you

To you, to you

Ooh

Oh, to you

To you, to you
