[Verse 1]
CDon't let them break you
GDon't let them Ftell you who you are
CDoesn't matter where you come from

CAnd you have your bamboo bones
GNervous energy, Fblind ambition, skin of your teeth
CPush back, push back, push Gback with every Fword and every breath

AmWhat god doesn't Fgive to you
CYou've got to go and get for Gyourself

CI'm embarrassed to admit it
GI've got no grip, FI'm leading with my jaw
CCan you see it from a distance?
GDoes it look ridiculous? FI guess that's just what I have to live with.
CStill I have a mind to think
GKnees to break, Fyou standing beside me
CI'm going to push back, push back, push Gback, with every Fword and every breath
[Chorus]
AmWhat god doesn't Fgive to you

AmWhat god doesn't Fgive to you
CYou've got to go and get for Gyourself
AmWhat god doesn't Fgive to you
CYou've got to go and get for Gyourself
AmWhat god doesn't Fgive to you
CYou've got to go and get for Gyourself
