D#
They say sing what you know
G#Fm7
But I've sung what they want
D#
Some folks do what they're told
G#Fm7
But baby this time I won't
G#D#
Will look through that door
Fm
I know the truth from lie
G#D#Fm
Some things I've done before I can't justify
[Pre-Chorus]D#
There are kings in my past
G#6Fm7
Things no one can be proud of
D#
But I stand in the light I've cast
G#6Fm7
And turn away from any lack of love
G#D#
Oh, when I walked through that door
Fm
I say here I go
G#D#
You see me and nothing more
Fm
I'm singing what I know
[Chorus]D#G#
I know better
D#G#
I know better
[Verse 2]D#
Legend is just a name
G#Fm7
I know better than to be so proud
D#
I won't drink in all this fame
G#Fm7
I'll take more love than I'm allowed
[Pre-Chorus]G#D#Fm
I won't hide or cut it off from where it came
G#D#Fm
My history has brought me to this place
G#D#Fm
This power and the color of my face
[Chorus]D#G#
And I know better
D#G#
I know better
[Bridge]CmD#G#6
I'll rise from the floor if I don't win
CmD#G#6
I'll bust upon that door so let me in
CmD#G#
And the music chooses me to sing I let her
FmG#
I'll sing what I know, yes
[Chorus]D#G#
I know better, oh
D#G#
I know better, yes
D#G#
I know better
D#G#
I know better
[Outro]D#G# x3
