Selfish Pride
A long time ago
 We used to have some pride
 We would take our selfishness
 And throw it away
 
 A long time ago
 We had some sympathy
 For the crashing of the hope
 And the crashing of the tides
 
 Throw all your pride away
 We don’t need it today
 Step down from your podium
 And forget
 I don’t need your selfish pride
 And I never will
 So I swear to this very day
 I won’t let my pride get in the way.
 
 You say you can fight your own battles
 But you can’t take the pain
 So when it all comes crashing down
 Your on the verge of insane
 
 People are dissing
 And What your really missing
 Is some new perspective 
 Get over it
 
 So let people in
 Don’t lock them out
 ‘cause you’ll be missing out
 On our battles
 
 Throw all your pride away
 We don’t need it today
 Step down from your podium
 And forget
 I don’t need your selfish pride
 And I never will
 So I swear to this very day
 I won’t let my pride get in the way.
 
 So get off of your high horse
 Because I have something to stay
 But you have no time to listen
 So go away.
