Verse 
D      F# 
I must make a choice 
  C# 
A tough decision

Listen to my voice

Should I give in

To temptation admiration

Just an empty shell

Verse 
     D      F# 
It's harder than it seems 
C# 
When you're told that 
D        F# 
All your hopes and dreams 
    C# 
Are yours to hold if 
D        F# 
You just give them 
         C# 
What's expected 
D         F# 
Something they can sell 
C#         Bm 
Put upon a shelf 
                 D 
But I am not for sale 
E            F# 
I am not for sale 

Chorus 
F#               A 
I here a voice inside 
                    E 
It's grown into a scream 
                      C# 
I'm not the next of them 
  D               F# 
I am the first of me 
                         A 
'Cause I can't live the lie 
                    E 
I am just what you see 
                     C# 
I'm not the next of them 
  D               F#      E 
I am the first of me 


Verse 
D    F# 
If I can't refuse 
    C# 
The price they offer 
D    F# 
I am sure to lose 
    C# 
And I will suffer 
D       F#             C# 
Sell my soul to make a profit 
D     F# 
All I have to do 
   C#                Bm 
Is make believe it's true 
                       D 
That something I can't do 
     E                 F# 
That something I can't do 


Chorus 
F#               A 
I here a voice inside 
                    E 
It's grown into a scream 
                      C# 
I'm not the next of them 
  D               F# 
I am the first of me 
                         A 
'Cause I can't live the lie 
                    E 
I am just what you see 
                     C# 
I'm not the next of them 
  D               F# A E C# 
I am the first of me 
  D               F# A E C# 
I am the first of me 
  D               F# 
I am the first of me 

                       A 
So when the waiting's gone 
                        E 
It's time to face the truth 
                     C# 
You know your good enough 
      D              F# 
Deep down inside of you 

                      A 
You're finally woken up 
                  E 
If only just to prove 
                          C# 
You are born to lead the way 
      D               F# 
Then be the first of you
