A thousand corpses and they coming this way
No escape, no escape
A thousand miles away, you smell the decay
Is this fate? Is this fate?
When I'm all alone, will I lose my brain?
It's a dead-end, I got no one to blame
This the life I chose, rather it be you than me
Maybe it's my faith and they'll take me away
Eaten alive, eaten alive
Eaten alive, I'm gettin' eaten alive
Eaten alive, eaten alive
Eaten alive, I'm gettin' eaten alive
All my life, I been misunderstood
I don't think that you can help me up (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
Built on ashes, from the dirt to the masses (From the mud)
They want my flesh, I'm an endangered Black man
Go 'head, watch my death and wash your hands from red
I hope it feeds your mess, know you'll be back again
Is this fate? (Is this fate?) Is this fate? (Is this fate?)
When I'm all alone, will I lose my brain?
It's a dead-end, I got no one to blame
This the life I chose, rather it be you than me
Maybe it's my faith and they'll take me away
Eaten alive, eaten alive
Eaten alive, I'm gettin' eaten alive
Eaten alive, eaten alive
Eaten alive, I'm gettin' eaten alive
