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 and coke
Not afraid of the fire
Time for laying down is over
Burn it to the ground and they'll know
We won't sleep 'til we're six feet down below
So lеt'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
And 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 and coke
Not afraid of the fire
Time for laying down is over
Burn it to the ground and you'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 wanna 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 and coke
Not afraid of the fire
Time for laying down is over
Burn it to the ground and you'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
