[Verse 1]
Don't disturb the beast
The temperamental goat
The snail, while he's feeding on the rose
Stay frozen, compromise
What I will, I am

[Verse 2]
Bend around the wind
Silently blown about
Again I'm treading so soft and lightly
Compromising my will, I am

[Chorus 1]
I am, I will
So no longer will I lay down
Play dead, play your doe

[Verse 3]
In the headlight
Locked down and terrified
Your deer in the headlights
Shot down and horrified
When push comes to pull comes to shove
Comes to step around this self-destructive dance
That never would've ended 'til I rose
I roared aloud here
I will, I am
[Chorus 2]
I am, I will
So no longer will I lay down
Lay dead, play this
Kneel down, gun-shy martyr, pitiful
I rose, I roared, I will, I am
