self destruct 110%

push yourself to the limit
give it 110%
be the best
beat the best
give it your all.
give me a fucking break
its like they want me to destroy myself
im at the peak of survival
but yet those damn voices keep pushing me
toward the edge.
damn bastards. who do you think you are
telling me to try harder
wanting me to raise youre dead dreams
do i look like Jesus to you?
 makes me sick
listening to this crap
i am doing my best, what more can you want?
i am shooting for the damned moon
what you want me to shoot for heaven?
 some things cant be done
stop testing me!
im not a fuckin machine ya know
you cant do this to human beings
you cant force them into oblivion like this
who gave you permission to make me explode?
isnt this still my god damned life?!
i cant be the fucking god you want
i cant be the holy light youve been looking for
thats not me.
youre not me.
dont tell me what i can do
dont tell me what i cant do
im not going to let you push me
not now
if anything ill push myself
i dont need you to remind me
of these weaknesses,
my body aches,
my mind screams for the end
my spirit is crumbling
beneath the burden i put there
no you dont scare me
not nearly as much as i scare myself
youre not the one telling me to tough it out
not this time
this is all on me
save your petty encouragements for the team
im on my own.
i dont need you to cheer me on
youre pushing
only makes my feet drag slower
i will do this alone
so shut youre damn mouth
and keep youre words to yourself
im making my own path
and ill rip you down in the process
we were never friends
team mates
comrades
never.
push me again and ill swallow you whole
get in my way and ill run you down
now tell me to give 110%
