How can you ask for forgiveness,
|
So now you think that your crimes are victim less?
|
I know you and your sins,
|
Your retributions,
|
So how will you lay your penance down?
|
We all pay in time,
|
So how will you clear your conscience when your clock unwinds?
|
|
I've heard enough of your forked tongue,
|
How do you know when the cuts are deep enough?
|
I know you like your stabs,
|
Your pre-emptive attacks,
|
But how will you hold your demons down?
|
We're all judged in time,
|
How can you seek redemption using alibis?
|
|
You oughta know better than to bait your jailer,
|
You oughta know,
|
You oughta know better.
|
|
How do you deal with the consequence,
|
Now that we bear the weight of your arrogance?
|
I know you and your cons,
|
Your petty little bombs,
|
But who will you blame your troubles on now?
|
We all pay in time,
|
So how will you clear your conscience when your lies unwind?
|
|
You oughta know better than to bait your jailer.
|
You oughta know better than to test your luck.
|
You oughta know better than to bite who feeds 'ya.
|
You oughta know, you oughta know better...
|
|
How can you ask for forgiveness,
|
How can you think that your crimes are victim less,
|
I know you and your sins,
|
Your retributions,
|
So how will you lay your penance down?
|
We're all judged in time,
|
So how will you clear your conscience when your lies unwind?
