Stricks & Bricks lyrics

[Intro]
I am fueled by all forms of failure
I paid the price
So, I'll take what's mine

[Verse 1]
Bet ya didn't see that one comin'
'Cause I do as I please
And apologize for nothing
My time is flying
But I'm still second to none
Always shining the brightest
When I'm placed under the gun
So here I stand
The only son of a working class man
I won't be held back
I can't be held down


[Chorus]
Where were you
When my walls came falling down?
You tried to hide
You stood close by
And didn't make a sound (say something)
[Verse 2]
Find you some paper
And I'll go grab you a pen
You can start taking notes
On how this all started again
Been dead last but found my way to the front
With my inspirational quotes on why
I never gave up

[Chorus]
Where were you
When my walls came falling down?
(When you're falling down)
You tried to hide
You stood close by
And didn't make a sound
Where were you
When it all came back around?
(Goes back around)
The reasons why you passed me by
Will always hold you down (say something)

[Verse 3]
If you can't stand the pressure
Stay the f*ck out of my way (I know my place)
This one goes out to everyone
Who's lied to my face
My heart is filled with hate
I'm making a difference
I'm taking a chance
You can say what you want about me
But no one can tell me I can't
[Chorus]
Where were you
When my walls came falling down?
When you falling down
You tried to hide
You stood close by
And didn't make a sound
Where were you
When it all came back around?
It goes back around
The reasons why you passed me by
Will always hold you down (say something)
