Just when you thought that you were mighty Here came the truth. The truth knocked you down a few notches And made you see the light. I was given an opportunity without audition And declined it because of conscious. You were instead given that opportunity Because you worked for it and deserved it. Instead of thanking me, you tell me that I ruined you. I was the one who destroyed what you worked for. The man who handed these opportunities out is now, in your mind, Not the role-maker he once was. I showed you that he offered me the role that made you shine. I made you. And you push me away. A year from now, you will see what I mean. You will see what I've been preaching. You will see.

Ruined.
Just when you thought that you were mighty Here came the truth. The truth knocked you down a few notches And made you see the light. I was given an opportunity without audition And declined it because of conscious. You were instead given that opportunity Because you worked for it and deserved it. Instead of thanking me, you tell me that I ruined you. I was the one who destroyed what you worked for. The man who handed these opportunities out is now, in your mind, Not the role-maker he once was. I showed you that he offered me the role that made you shine. I made you. And you push me away.
