I AM MY OWN BEAT


To me; I am the best radio, the best MP3 to listen to. 

Because I know my own kind of music, my own kind of beat. 

My words are true. 

My emotions are true. 

So I'll just say good bye to you. 

Can you keep up? 

Because I'm not slowing down. 

Can you slow down? 

Because I'm not speeding up. 

I have my own pace, pace, pace, 

And my own kind of beat. 

If you can't do with my rythm, 

Find a new tune. 

Because I am my own, 

And I'm not stopping for a get lost like you.
