THE STRENGTH I CALL MY OWN Lyrics

and i will wander on alone
the strength that i will call my own

inside my mind
there is something left to find
it's like this - focus
not no hocus pocus
bullshit - don't quit
before i have to throw a fit
you want this, need this
don't miss all this.

lies. lies. lies. lies.

and i will wander on alone
ths strength that i will call my own

inside my mind
there is something to find
it's like this - focus
not no hocus pocus
bullshit - don't quit
before i have to throw a fit
you want this, need this
don't miss all this

your hostile lifestyle
contributes to my profile
and thsi shit, that shit
all a bunch of bullshit
you sit back, lay back
enjoy your fuckin' kickbacks
explode - unload
just like you're told

lies. lies. lies. lies.

and i will wander on alone
the strength that i will call my own

everything i say comes back to haunt me.
everything i say will come back to haunt me.

lies. lies. lies. lies.

and i will wander on alone.
the strength that i will call my own.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this song is about someone who takes a lot a shit, but can still make it on his/her own. Telling this other person that its like this, and its no bullshit, they won't quit. They work hard and this other person insults them and possibly hurts them. He tells him enjoy your fuckin' kick backs while you can, because I will be ahead soon. I dunno if that's right

I can't believe nobody else has commented on this song, it was one of the best on the Darker Side of Nonsense cd.

I think this litrally about the title. about just going on with your life no matter what happens. when you get knocked down, get up and keep going, its about finding the strength to just carry on with life. Its pretty much saying that it doesnt matter about the other people "enioy your fucking kick backs" because he is taking what they throw at him and enduring it makming him a stronger person. " adds to my profile"
