[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]

So what'cha waiting for?

Anticipating more

While you debate what it could take to instigate a war

Yeah, I've been hated more than time I wasn't hated for

There's nothing they can fu*king say they didn't say before

But you could never see it, your battle's not mine

Wanna skate and play it safe but this is take a shot time

While you're waiting for a purpose I already got mine

While you tell me step to it like one, two, three, four!





[Chorus: Page Hamilton]

And if I do what you demand

(You say) You’ll let me understand

(You say) You’re gonna hold me to your word

And if I sell myself away

(You say) I’ll have no debt to pay

(You say) I’m gonna get what I deserve





[Hook: Chester Bennington]

Your word, obeyed

My debt, repaid

Our trust, betrayed

All for nothing

All for nothing





[Verse 2: Mike]

Kick back there’s no other way to say it

So let me break this fu*ker down for ya

I really don't know ya

You talk but let me show ya where to put your paranoia

You’re joking, I don’t have a half a sucker bone to throw ya

I’m disgusted, wonder what could’ve made ya tuck your tail below ya

And no, I’m not your soldier

 I’m not taking any orders

I’m a five-star general, infantry controller

Need a lesson? Let me show ya

Have you checking your composure

While I make you step to it like one, two, three, four!





[Chorus] x1



And if I do what you demand

You'll let me understand





[Hook: Chester] x1



All for nothing

Oh
