[Verse 1]
C F D5
They say sing what you know, but I’ve sung what they want
C F D5
Some folks do what they're told, but baby this time I won't
F C Dm
Will look through that door, I know the truth won't lie
F C Dm
Some things I've done before, I can't justify
[Verse 2]
C F D5
There are kings in my past, things no one can be proud of
C F D5
But I stand in the light I've cast, turned away from any lack of love
F C Dm
Oh, and I walked through that door, I say here I go
F C Dm
You see me and nothing more, I'm singing what I know
[Chorus]
C C F
I know better
C C F
I know better
[Verse 3]
C F D5
Legend is just a name, I know better than to be so proud
C F D5
I won't dream in all this fame, I'll take more love than I'm allowed
F C Dm
I won't have to cut it off from where it came
F C Dm
My history has brought me to this place
F C Dm
This power and the color of my face
[Chorus]
C C F
And I know better
C C F
I know better
[Bridge]
Am C F
Oh, I'll rise from the floor if I don't win
Am C F
I'll bust open that door so let me in
Am C F
And the music chooses me to sing, I let her
Dm F
I'll sing what I know, yes
[Chorus]
C C F
I know better, oh
C C F
I know better, yes
C C F
I know better
C C F
I know better
