My War
Good Riddance Lyrics

My war you're one of them
I'm in a battle against oppression and you align yourself with the enemy.

You say that you're my friend
You falsely claim loyalty and support, but your actions contradict your words.

But you're one of them
You belong to the group(s) that's opposing me, whether you admit it or not.

You don't want to see me live
Your goal is to crush my spirit and hinder my existence.

You don't want me to give
You don't want me to use my talents, skills, or resources to fight back.

'Cause you're one of them
You're invested in maintaining the status quo that oppresses me, whether to benefit yourself or someone else.

I might not know what a friend is
I may lack a clear definition of true friendship due to my lifetime of struggle and betrayal.

All I know is what you're not
However, I'm confident that you're not someone who has my back and supports my liberation.

I have a prediction, it lives in my brain
I have a premonition, a hunch, or a fear that's deeply ingrained in my mind.

It's with me every day, it drives me insane
It haunts me on a daily basis, making me feel crazy or desperate.

I feel it in my heart, that if I has a gun
I have a strong conviction that if I had access to a firearm, I would use it to seek revenge or justice.

I feel it in my heart, I'd want to kill some
I'm so enraged and frustrated that I would resort to violent means if necessary.

I feel it in my heart, the end will come
I have a fatalistic sense that my fate or the fate of my oppressors will lead to a bloody or tragic end.

Come on!!
I'm shouting to express my anger, frustration, and determination.

Tell me that I'm wrong
Challenge me, confront me, or debate me about my views or my actions.

Try to sing me your ego song
Attempt to sway me to your side by flattering me, manipulating me, or echoing my beliefs insincerely.

My War.
This is my personal battle that I have to fight alone or with those who truly share my goals and values.
