Lyrics and translation
Original
Here you go knocking at my door. What are you begging for?
I guess you're here to try me again, but I'm not letting you in.
You try to come at my weakest. You try to come when I'm down.
But as long as I am breathing, the sun can come back around. Oh.
I admit sometimes it gets so rough, and I feel like I've had enough. Oh, oh.
But even in those times, I'm reminded of what I'm made of, and I'm not giving up. Oh.
No matter how hard you try. Oh.
You can't have control. You can't have control. This I promise you.
This I promise you. I will never sell my soul. No matter how hard you try.
Oh, no matter how hard you try. You can't have control. You can't have control.
This I promise you. This I promise you. I will never sell my soul.
I see you trying to get my attention, but I'm not buying what you sell.
What you sell. The cost for me is too expensive. I'm not looking for your help.
Looking for your help. I'd rather take the scenic route. Scenic route.
Find out what's really best for me. What's really best for me. It may take a little longer then, but
I can keep my sanity. Oh.
I admit sometimes it gets so rough. Oh, yeah.
And I feel like I've had enough.
But even in those times,
I'm reminded of what I'm made of. And I'm not giving up. Oh.
No matter how hard you try. No matter how hard you try. You can't have control.
Oh, you can't have control. This I promise you. Oh. I will never sell my soul.
I'll never sell my soul. No matter how hard you try. No matter how hard you try.
You can't have control. You can't have control. This I promise you.
This I promise you. I will never sell my soul. I'll never sell my soul.
Oh.
Yeah.
No matter how hard you try. Oh. You can't have control.
You can't have control. This I promise you. This I promise you. I will never sell my soul.
Never sell my soul.
No matter how hard you try. Oh, no matter how hard you try.
You can't have control. You can't have control. This I promise you.
This I promise you. I will never sell my soul. I'll never sell my soul.
No matter how hard you try. Oh. You can't have control. You can't have control.
This I promise you. This I promise you.
I will never sell my soul. I'll never sell my soul. No matter how hard you try.
I'll never sell my soul. You can't have control.
I will never sell my soul. This I promise you. This I promise you.
I will never sell my soul. I'll never sell my soul.
