I don't believe in cutting corners
|
Own it like a scar on the face
|
Stand tall whether taking the gold or in last place
|
Not really the one to give God praise
|
But if you got the gospel tell me how it taste,
|
Hallelujah
|
Biting on the bullet for strength
|
I'm a long distance runner sucker
|
I'm in it for length
|
It's not a matter of whether you can play
|
But a scale of if you give a fuck enough to make us stay
|
Lay it down,
|
Separate the men from the mice
|
Another body under halogen lights missing its life one
|
Wondering what the hell would make you think
|
You could judge another person for loving something so much it hurts the stomach, huh?!
|
Living by the blood in my neck with a bulls eye tatted on the back of my head
|
I've never spoke it how they wanted it to be said
|
So the left me for the winter and the wolves
|

|
Tear me to shreds
|
And rip me to bits,
|
Tear another page out
|
Punch me in the ribs
|
I can smell the poison on your lips
|
Whatever it is I'd be willing to bet
|
They wanna to get inside my head
|
Tell me how it is
|
Sitting in the tower with a rifle and a list
|
I can see the razor on your lips
|
Whatever it is, I'd be willing to bet
|
You should've held your breath
|
|
I don't believe in sitting down
|
Take it like a knife in the back
|
If it burnt out into nothing after striking the match
|
I've never been the type to follow the packs
|
So if its true you got all the answers
|
Then why the hell you so mad?
|
Another holy ghost laid script
|
Clipped the wings off of my words
|
And buried the shiv(?)
|
They want to pick apart the passion in my ribs
|
I invite them - 'cause I don't run away from shit
|
Lay it out!
|
Separate the guns and the flowers
|
The minutes that go into all of these hours
|
And I bet if you were given a smidgen
|
Of just the tip of the ice berg
|
I've had to struggle with you
|
Wouldn't act so sour, maybe not
|
Living of the fruit of my stress
|
With a size twelve boot heel steppin' on my chest
|
Didn't do it how they wanted it to end
|
So they threw me to the winter & wolves
|
