Lost In The Echo

[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda] Yeah Yo You were that foundation Never gonna be another one no I followed, so taken So conditioned I could never let go Then sorrow, then sickness Then the shock when you flip it on me So hollow, so vicious So afraid I couldn't let myself see That I could never be held Back or up no, I hold myself Check the rep, yep you know mine well Forget the rest, let them know my hell Damn, there and back, yet my soul ain't sell Kept respect up, the best they fell Let the rest be the tale they tell That I was there saying... [Hook: Chester Bennington] In these promises broken deep below Each word gets lost in the echo So one last lie I can see through This time I finally let you Go... Go... Go... [Verse 2: Mike Shinoda] Test my will, test my heart Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up Ya'll go hard, I go smart How's that working out for ya'll in the back, huh? I've seen that frustration Been crossed and lost and told no And I've come back unshaken Let down and lived and let go So you can let it be known I don't hold back I hold my own I can't be mapped, I can't be cloned I can't see flat, it ain't my tone I can't fall back I came too far Hold myself up and love my scars Let the bells ring wherever they are Cause I was there saying... [Hook] [Bridge: Mike Shinoda] No / You can tell 'em all now I don't back up / I don't back down I don't fold up and I don't bow I don't roll over / don't know how I don't care where the enemies are Can't be stopped / all I know / go hard Won't forget how I got this far For every time saying... [Hook]
