Self Control

[Verse 1]
Up the ladder to paradise
Something isn't sittin' right
It's got me uneasy
Let me try to spell out what I mean
I'm a shepherd not a sheep
I'm not here to hear you preach
I've got something with more speed
Oh oh oh

[Pre-Chorus]
But every song they sing
Goes hallelujah (hallelujah)
And every psalm and hymn
Goes hallelujah (hallelujah)
And if it's true God's got a plan, got a will for every one of us
Then wouldn't He know to let go of the leash, and let me be mе?

[Chorus]
'Cause I go harder, I go higher
I don't stop, I don't gеt tired
I don't miss, I don't misfire
I don't quit when shit gets dire
I don't have to do too much to prove myself, I'm good enough
And if I do, I love the rush as much as I love showing up
Say what you wanna wanna say
I don't mind the chatter when it doesn't even matter anyway
'Cause nothing can take me away from my aim
So say what you wanna wanna say, what you wanna wanna
I've got the self control
The kind you wanna know
The kind that makes you feel like you could do it on your own
No I can't hear you now while I'm well on my way
To the top of my game
Yeah I've got that self control

I've got that self control

[Verse 2]
You do you, and I do me
The point here is to live authentically
I wouldn't know you apart from Adam or Even
That means nothing you say's gonna get to me
And they're preachin' to the choir again, amen (amen)
Amen, ayy
And I'm not listening to anything they said (amen)
Amen

[Bridge]
Now the angels we've heard on high
Are breaking up in chaos up on Cloud 9
I told them they can't handle me, I'm more than what they thought I'd be
Can't top my type of energy
Oh no

[Pre-Chorus]
But every song they sing
Goes hallelujah (hallelujah)
And every psalm and hymn
Goes hallelujah (hallelujah)
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

[Chorus]
Say what you wanna wanna say
I don't mind the chatter when it doesn't even matter anyway
'Cause nothing can take me away from my aim
So say what you wanna wanna say, what you wanna wanna
I've got the self control
The kind you wanna know
The kind that makes you feel like you could do it on your own
No I can't hear you now while I'm well on my way
To the top of my game (I got that, I got that)
I've got that self control
The kind you wanna know
The kind that makes you feel like you could do it on your own
No I can't hear you now while I'm well on my way
To the top of my game
I've got that self control
I go harder, I go higher
I don't stop, I don't get tired
I don't miss, I don't misfire
I don't quit when shit gets dire
I don't have to do too much to prove myself, I'm good enough
And if I do, I love the rush as much as I love showing up
I've got that self control
The kind you wanna know
The kind that makes you feel like you could do it on your own
No I can't hear you now while I'm well on my way
To the top of my game
I've got that self control

[Outro]
Got that self control
