F#
They say sing what you know
BG#m7
But I've sung what they want
F#
Some folks do what they're told
BG#m7
But baby this time I won't
BF#
Will look through that door
G#m
I know the truth from lie
BF#G#m
Some things I've done before I can't justify
[Pre-Chorus]F#
There are kings in my past
B6G#m7
Things no one can be proud of
F#
But I stand in the light I've cast
B6G#m7
And turn away from any lack of love
BF#
Oh, when I walked through that door
G#m
I say here I go
BF#
You see me and nothing more
G#m
I'm singing what I know
[Chorus]F#B
I know better
F#B
I know better
[Verse 2]F#
Legend is just a name
BG#m7
I know better than to be so proud
F#
I won't drink in all this fame
BG#m7
I'll take more love than I'm allowed
[Pre-Chorus]BF#G#m
I won't hide or cut it off from where it came
BF#G#m
My history has brought me to this place
BF#G#m
This power and the color of my face
[Chorus]F#B
And I know better
F#B
I know better
[Bridge]D#mF#B6
I'll rise from the floor if I don't win
D#mF#B6
I'll bust upon that door so let me in
D#mF#B
And the music chooses me to sing I let her
G#mB
I'll sing what I know, yes
[Chorus]F#B
I know better, oh
F#B
I know better, yes
F#B
I know better
F#B
I know better
[Outro]F#B x3
