lyrics

If you want to be a man, lose your safety strands
and you will never look back as a matter of fact.
You're thinking "What do you know about being a man?"
and you're absolutely right but i'll still put up a fight.

I wake up and i want to be anonymous, man,
not knowing where to start could be a safe place to land.
It's got nothing to do with what you stand to lose
it's one moment in time, not something you choose.

It could never not be, never could not be, heart attack.
It could never not be, never could not be, heart attack.
All i want to know is if i make you feel, heart attack.
All i want to know is if i make you feel, heart attack.
