lyrics

What is the point of a helping hand
I pulled myself up from the dirt, not another man

More me, less them
On my word it’ll happen again
More me, less them
Take my words to the others’ graves

Friend dead men
Friend dead men
Friend the ones who will never cry wolf
Friend the ones who will never cry

I am not ashamed to say the Earth is beneath my feet
I am not afraid to be the one, the one who’s in charge

More me, less them
On my word it’ll happen again
More me, less them
Take my words to the others’ graves

They’re not stopping me
Just look at what I’ve done
I think it speaks for itself
Hear them cry for me

Like a loaded gun with an empty conscience
I am not afraid, I am not afraid
Like a loaded gun with an empty conscience
Why can’t they ever tell me

What is the point of a helping hand
I pulled myself up from the dirt
They all look at me like Vultures awaiting their prey

With their talons grabbing for my mind
I never thought I’d say
I guess I’m giving up
