| It’s tragic how we wound up this way |
| They mortgaged the future for a seat at the table with a plateful of shameful |
| mistakes they’ll swallow |
| Addicted to the game that they play like a dope sick user who just keeps coming |
| clean and then leaving the scene no sorrow |
| We can’t get any higher |
| We’ve been screaming from the nosebleeds far too long |
| You should know I’m a fighter |
| Mama raised me on crazy 'n coke… not afraid of the fire |
| Time for laying down is over |
| Burn it to the ground then they’ll know we won’t sleep 'til we’re six feet down |
| below |
| So let’s start us a fire |
| So let’s start us a fire |
| Prayer is a slippery slope when you worship the bullet |
| So you bury our sons and our daughters for fun… and it’s bullshit. |
| Don’t you deny the blood is on your fingers, you let it get this far |
| You closed your eyes and hoped the darkness lingered |
| But now the lights they can’t get any brighter |
| We’ve been screaming from the nosebleeds far too long |
| You should know I’m a fighter |
| Mama raised me on crazy 'n coke… not afraid of the fire |
| Time for laying down is over |
| Burn it to the ground then they’ll know we won’t sleep 'til we’re six feet down |
| below |
| So let’s start us a fire |
| So let’s start us a fire |
| So let’s start us a fire |
| You choose to believe what you want to see |
| You closed your eyes and hoped the darkness lingered |
| But now the lights they can’t get any brighter |
| We’ve been screaming from the nosebleeds far too long |
| You should know I’m a fighter |
| Mama raised me on crazy 'n coke… not afraid of the fire |
| Time for laying down is over |
| Burn it to the ground then they’ll know we won’t sleep 'til we’re six feet down |
