New York is dangerous, littered with thieves

We've no morals here, we just do as we please....

But I don't wanna go home where they all stare at me

cause I'm tattoed, and fired up, and drunk, and obscene...

Cause you wear your religion like a War Sweater.

You ask for the truth, but you know you could do so much better,

and you sat on your fences, you've screamed no retreat...

So what will your legacy be?

(We...)

Battle lines drawn if you wonder which side speaks the truth

then look closely to which speaks from pride

I love you. I swear it. I would never lie...

But I fear for our lives and I fear your closed eyes...

You wear your religion like a War Sweater.

You ask for the truth, but you know you could do so much better,

and you sat on your fences, you've screamed no retreat...

So now what will your legacy be?

So what will your legacy be?

So what will your legacy be?

(We...)

I'm in the mood where I come all untied,

I'm in the mood to say things that'll change people's minds...

I love you. I swear it. I would never lie...

But I fear for our lives and I fear your closed eyes...

You wear your religion like a War Sweater.

You ask for the truth, but you know you could do so much better,

and you sat on your fences, you've screamed no retreat...

So now what will your legacy be?

So what will your legacy be?

So what will your legacy be?

(We...)
