Last Straw

Track 6 - Ordinary Lives

lyrics

I've had enough, this is the last straw
I'm burning it all, no more bad draws
No more for me, or anyone else
Drag you off of your high horse and into the dregs
That you make us crawl, while you stand tall
Walking over us, now YOU take the fall
How does it feel, ain't it miserable?
Why do you puke from the same shit you throw?
You don't know my story, don't call me a bum
You don't know the burden of a first-born son
Standing in for a father who left us for dead
Mother was my only model for strength
And all of those years, I intend to repay
But not as a slave, harnessed and chained
I've played in this game for too long with no say
I'm here to live life, I'm not here for charades
So go preach to your choir
You built your career in a lavish empire
I dare you to come spend a year in my jungle
Where shit is so rough, even diamonds crumble to dust
To put food on the shelf
Poor mental health, not a pill for myself
Cuz my momma's grown frail, sister critically ill
Medical bills got me buried in debt
While you pilfer more wealth, I've been working like hell
Yet my salary's held, zero empathy felt
And no friends to reach out, they condemned me instead
Companionship ends where the money begins, huh?
And you think I'm lacking gratitude?
You think I'm just not trying as hard as you?
Two jobs, seven days, and I'm a slacking fool?
You wanna see a fucking change of attitude?
Fuck you self-serving class
You think your money gives everything you do a pass
What you wouldn't do for cash; trade lives for dead--
-- presidents, you might as well join the severed heads
You want stocks? Watch out for the bad signs
Cuz I will turn your fucking life's crescendo to a flatline
Just like the one from that night, I can hear it still
As she said her last I love you and her breathing failed
Hands so cold, tears froze as they fell
I'll let you have a good taste of that soul-freezing chill
She found God, while I lost the one I answer to
From now on, I'm the judge, I'm the arbiter of vengeance
And you're all accountable
Crimes against humanity: treating them like animals
Pillage, murder, theft within the law
And when I kill you, I'll be the guiltiest of all
So what's the verdict? Whose neck should be strung?
Mine, or these worthless, egotistic scum?
How many bullets do I need for everyone who wronged me?
How many shots will it take to fucking end this story?
Fuck, I just steal what I can find
Loaded handgun, ready to go Columbine
Inside that office that I've longed to burn for years
The asshole in charge just wet himself in fear
Wishing this a dream, a horror movie reel
I wish it was too, but my sister died for real
Your fortune won't save you from the karma that you've earned
Take it all to hell and see if that shit don't burn
Duh-duh-duh-duh, duh-duh-duh-duh
Empty, reload, then more duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh
How you like me now, motherfucker?
You walked like a king, now you lay like a sucker
What's the matter? No more witty quips?
Choke in your blood, you condescending prick
I did at last
Holy shit, I just killed a man
It happened so fast
I'm falling and I can't turn back
So I gotta make my exit quick before the cops arrive
Now that it's come to this, everybody has to die
That's right, I'm coming for you all
I'll show the whole world how the mighty will fall
I'm gonna kill you, I'm gonna fucking kill you
There are no depths that I'm not willing to sink to
Just to prove even royal bloods bleed red
I'll take you to the same place my dreams went
I'll take you to the same place my dreams went
It guess this is where my dreams end
