Defeat Me Mentally

I can play your games by your rules,
I can bow to your kings, I can laugh at your fools,
I can perform in a dog & pony show,
I can kiss your butt & give you a blow,
but it all means nothing, no matter what you think.
I'm just waiting for the right time to 'cause a stink.
All your obstacles I can over come.
Think I'm under control, think I'm under your thumb.
You can push my body and hurt me physically,
but you can never defeat me mentally.

I can say "I love you" with a twinkle in my eye.
Yet all these semantics are only a lie.
I tell you all the thing I know you want to hear,
put you at easy & chase away your fear
All your obstacles I can over come.
Think I'm under control, think I'm under your thumb.
You can push my body and hurt me physically,
but you can never defeat me mentally.

I can use you for whatever you posses.
I can take your order & create a mess.
I do not care what you do to me.
You can not impose on my reality.
It does not matter what words I use,
they only manipulate you in the way I choose.
All your obstacles I can over come.
Think I'm under control, think I'm under your thumb.
You can push my body and hurt me physically,
but you can never defeat me mentally.
