Lets reach middle america
Assume the only thing they hear is this
Tune it up spit it out see if anybody sticks
Its so simplistic, masochistic
The statistics show we're getting bored with templates
And now the kids want something different
I'm not gonna rock like you rock I'm not gonna roll like you roll
I'm gonna drop my own kind of beat I'm gonna sing my own kind of song
I'm not gonna be a bodiless head thats all talk
I'm not gonna rock like you rock
Here's a brand new business model
Say a prayer then hit the throttle hard
Sell it all as a jewel case covered hope
Its imitation, segregation
Mix it down and then spoon feed it to a nation
But nobody wants to taste it
I'm not gonna dance like you dance I'm not gonna flow like you flow
I'm gonna top my own kind of charts I'm gonna play my own kind of shows
I'm not gonna be a thought you bought in a box
I'm not gonna rock like you rock
