Lyrics
VERSE 1
And so i goes, this is my story, its one ive never told
you might have been a son before me, but i am not the same
though we look the same, yeah
CHORUS 1
I am not your game
i am not your fame
i am not your mirror to reflect your face
i am not your chance to right all your wrongs
i am not your shadow, I am just your son, just your son
VERSE 2
dont live your days, living through me, let me break away
this war I wage, my fight for freedom, im not your second chance
let you be you and me be me, stop making me the boy you want, let me be free
give me what I need...yeah
CHORUS 2
I am not your game
i am not your fame
i am not your mirror to reflect your face
i am not your chance to right all your wrongs
i am not your shadow, I am just your son, just your son
BRIDGE
all your dreams that faded, you try and push me to become
i am so frustrated, let me be
CHORUS 3
I am not your game
i am not your fame
i am not your mirror to reflect your face
i am not your chance to right all your wrongs
i am not your shadow, I am just your son, just your son
