F#m                   D
Nighttime fades into day
              A
And a big mistake you
                 E
didn't know you made
See if you can take
   F#m
it back You thought
       D
that this was what
    A     E F#m
it seemed  Fate
doesn't care about
D
plans You never knew
A                  E
life was a rubber band
The harder that you
F#m                D
pull The more it snaps
                  A   E F#m D
back The more it hurts

Chorus:
F#m   A        Bm
Sweetness did you
   D        F#m
believe in this
     Bm       D
They got you good
      E
they got you
    A
No matter what
transpires
     C#m
Your will can take
            D
you higher now
          E
So don't take out
frustration
A
On your body
     C#m
That junk will
make you sorry
D    E
I'm taking my
 C  
last stand
F#m
And to think they
D       E      F#m A D Bm
almost got me too

Don’t confuse death for rebirth
Don’t mess around feeling like love is a curse
But you gotta make a change
Before you lose control
I'm not saying I know what and what not to do
We're all torn up from inside out
And I've had mistakes in my bed once or twice
That I put in my closet till I finally came to
And I realized I’ll always know what I have to do

Chorus

Bm
Time is upon us
D
Be who you want to
F#m          E       D
Be  who you want to be
Bm
Keep moving forward
       D
Don't live in the
       F#m
corner Be who you
 E       D  Bm
want to be Judges
will judge In the
 D
classrooms and the
             F#m
court If you keep
         E
giving them their
D        F#m
say I'll be who I
 E       D     F#m
want to be So think
          E       D
what you want of me

Chorus:
Sweetness did you believe in this
They got you good they got you
No matter what transpires
Your will can take you higher now
So don’t take out frustration
On your body
That junk will make you sorry
I'm taking my last stand
And to think they almost got me
To think they almost got me
To think they almost got me too
