Take a look at his life

A failure reprised

Blackened rings surround his eyes

Hardman, hard lines

A walking monolith of lies

You have nothing

You are nothing

Just leave me be

Swollen right hand

Lets fucking go

Fighting the battle

We go toe to toe

Your whole life

Flashes right before your eyes

Now it's time for you to swallow your pride

You can't take away

What isn't yours to take

Can't take away what is mine

You have nothing

You are nothing

Just leave me be

Bleeding baiting the trap

Now you're wanted

A reputation

A cardboard gangster

Always running

This is my last chance to change

Into the wasteland you call life

The battle was fought and lost this time

The body weakens as the mind begins to die

In the absence of our fathers

You can't take away

What isn't yours to take

Can't take away what is mine

This is my confessional

This is my last chance to change

This is my confessional

This is my last chance to change
