"Not Your Revolution"

I don't wanna talk
I don't wanna listen anymore
When everything you say is just ignored
When everything you say
Compassion, it goes a long way

And I wonder what's next
With a whole world trying to impress
But is a single person worth it
Are they really worth it
They've done nothing to deserve it

[chorus]
I've gotta do it for me
If I want anything this time, something to be set free
I've gotta do it for me
For it to ever really mean something

Is it selfishness
To wish the best
But have no way to accomplish it
To put a brave face on
Over the timid one beneath it

And I'll never rest
Going on like this
I need to be, something more than me
If I ever plan to exist

[chorus]
I've gotta do it for me
If I want anything this time, something to be set free
I've gotta do it for me
Awake to the honesty
I've gotta do it for me
Cause this is what helps me believe
I've gotta do it

I've gotta do it
Yeah, I've gotta do it

[chorus]
I've gotta do it for me
If I want anything this time, something to be set free
I've gotta do it for me
For it to ever reach somebody
I've gotta do it
'Cause all I've ever wanted
Is to reach somebody
