Lyrics

You're trying to replace yourself
 You're trying to replace yourself, you're trying to replace yourself
 You're trying to replace yourself, you're trying to replace yourself
 You're trying to replace yourself, you're trying to replace yourself
 You're trying to replace yourself, you're-
 Carving out a fact from a reckoning!
 Beckoning your back, skin sagging off its skeleton
 Levitating off the ground
 Is another man wearing your face
 All the other false identities
 Remedies or enemies to mitigate your memories
 Shuddered at what they found
 When they stripped away the grace
 Eulogy or biography, I'm who I ought to be
 And that is God to me (never, never, never)
 So, my God, what's wrong with me?
 If who I wanna be might be
 Never, never, never
 Never, never, never
 Never, never, never
 No, never!
 You'll never take me alive, baby, you'll never take me alive
 You'll never take me, you'll never take me, you better pray that I die
 You'll never take me alive, baby, you'll never take me alive
 You'll never take me, you'll never take me, and no, you're never gon' find
 Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself
 Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself
 Damn, I thought you're not your imposter
 You're so sure you're not gonna get caught
 Dead in your own skin
 But you didn't choose what you were born in
 And another man in your repertoire
 Ready in your head and fed upon your memoirs
 Still the same rules apply
 From the birthday to the mourning
 What you feel and what you do, are those things really you?
 And if not, then what is? (Never, never, never)
 So, my God, what's wrong with you?
 And I'm still asking who that is
 Never, never, never
 Never, never, never
 Never, never, never
 No, never
 You'll never take me alive, baby, you'll never take me alive
 You'll never take me, you'll never take me, you better pray that I die
 You'll never take me alive, baby, you'll never take me alive
 You'll never take me, you'll never take me, and no, you're never gon' find
 Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself
 Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself
 ♪
 You'll never take me alive, baby (this is not enough)
 You'll never take me alive (this is not enough to prove it yet)
 You'll never take me, you'll never take me, you better pray that I die (no, I need to hit the bottom)
 You'll never take me alive, baby (this is not enough)
 You'll never take me alive (this is not enough to prove it yet)
 You'll never take me, you'll never take me, you better pray that I die (no, I need to hit the bottom)
 Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself
 Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself
 Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself
 Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself, hey!
