Shreds

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 then 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 or not you can play But a scale of if you give a fuck enough to make a statement Lay it down [Pre-Hook] Separate the men from the mice Another body under halogen lights missing its life Wondering what the hell would make you think that You could judge another person for loving something so much it hurts the stomach Living by the blood in my neck With a bullseye tatted on the back of my head I never spoke it how they wanted it to be said So they left me for the winter and the wolves [Hook] Tear me into shreds Rip me into 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 want to get inside my head Tell me how it is Sitting in a 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 have held your breath [/Hook] I don't believe in sitting down Take it like a knife in the back You burnt out into nothing after striking the match I've never been the type to follow the pack So if it's true you got the answers Then why the hell you so mad then? 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 [Bridge] Separate the guns and the flowers The minutes that go into all 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 Livin off the fruit of my stress With a size twelve boot heel stepping on my chest Didn't do it how they wanted it to end So they threw me to the winter and wolves [Hook] [x2]
