Cutthroat

I've been waiting patiently
I built this tower quietly
And when my well of Wellbutrin is
Running dry of serotonin
I can say things I don't mean
Or maybe it's the truth in me
I feel it building, bubbling up
My time is up
I'm so misunderstood, but I live for this
My money's good, and I came to win
So step on up, and I promise you
Only one of us gone' make it out alive
And it's not you (cutthroat)
Only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive
And it's not you (cutthroat)
Only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive
I've been making my Gethsemane
Since I was young my ancestry
Was marching martyrdom across the
Radadada dumbla plains of Utah
I can't lie, I've been played
By powerful people who get their way
But I, in time, will climb my mountain
I, in time, will rise
I'm so misunderstood, but I live for this
My money's good, and I came to win
So step on up, and I promise you
Only one of us gon' make it out alive
And it's not you (cutthroat)
Only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive
And it's not you (cutthroat)
Only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive
Try me! Try me!
Cutthroat
Only one of us
Only one of us
Not you (cutthroat)
Only one of us
Only one of us
Only one of us
(Cutthroat)
(Cutthroat)
