lyrics

If you try hard enough they'll let you on in
It's only your soul
Just give up, just give in and follow the trend
Regret nothing
Individuality is the new sin
Give up, give in
Just give up, just give in and follow the trend

If you want to taste the heavens and chase stars
Throw away your passion, give in to fashion

I'll step on anyone just to reach the top
Family means nothing when money's involved
Friends are useless and get in your way
I want the hoes the blow the shows cause its the only

I worship idols that take all my money
Promises of fame and glory

You're a constant reminder of what I don't wanna become
Just take a look at yourself, is this what you wanna be?

It's only your soul, give up give in
Regret nothing, give up give in

Just take a look at yourself, is this what you wanna be?
Just take a look at yourself, is this what you wanna be?

If you try hard enough they'll let you on in
Just give up, just give in and follow the trend
Individuality is the new sin
Just give up, just give in and follow the trend

If you try hard enough, If you try hard enough
If you try hard enough, If you try hard enough
