They say the head when you frown is the heaviest threat, but I ain't never had my medals or
bezel yet.
I was the last born tyrant to an empire of regret, him with a armor plate of steel and
tears outlined on the crest.
Walked in a place where gun wars and toast organists, the war of peace fighting for primetime
control of the state.
The innocence was the luxury, I'm the luckiest man, and the odds were never in our favor
'cause we were stuck with the debt.
I'm a boy who come a long way from dark days and lost hope.
It's gonna be all it takes, it's one little spark and we all talk.
So I stay lookin' for the light, keep the watch on my hando
'Til my ambition catch a fire like a whale in the bottom of the oak
Now the records made me come with a little skin in the game
My scar tissue will road-map through the heart and brain
But I never got the lessons to test 'em, it caused a brain
Made the old me no match for the warrior that I became
But I'll stand up with you
You've got to stand up, yeah, yeah
'Cause we ain't gon' back down
Can't come back here no more
We can't come back, don't look down
Don't you look down, no
