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 below So let's start us a fire So let's start us a fire So let's start us a fire
