Lyrics

Defiant

Defiant in every word I say

Every move I make, set in my way

Defiant in every choice I make

Can’t control me, slave to nothing

Defiant in every word I say

Every move I make, set in my way

Defiant in every word that I say

Never walked the path I was shown

Always been a little bit off

Felt no connections to these crowds

Didn’t care who understood my thoughts

I’ll walk alone and never move in fear

I’ll make it on my own and I remain

Defiant in every word I say

Every move I make, set in my way

Defiant in every choice I make

Can’t control me, slave to nothing

The bright side never came

All your words meant nothing

Answer only to myself

Empty eyes driven to the edge

I’ll walk alone and never move in fear

I’ll make it on my own and I remain

Defiant, I walk alone

And that's fine with me

I’ll make it on my own and alone I stay

I won’t fall in line so you accept me

I could never live my life that way

Nothing to prove to you or anybody else

Cause I already have proven this to myself

Proven it to myself

Defiant in every word I say

Every move I make, set in my way

Defiant in every choice I make

Can’t control me, slave to nothing

Never walked the path I was shown

Always been a little off

Felt no connections to the crowds

I’m defiant in my every thought
