hear the time tick
watch the rhymes hit
the beat when i speak cus to me it's a science
try it, cut off your wings
put some thought into what it is your offering
pick a song to sing
break your promise ring
dawn brings love, hate, lies, and honesty
cus honestly
i think someone by now has gotta be onto me
so promise me that my secret's safe
i don't believe in hatred
or practice love
the master of puppets has me actin up
im attached to his clutch
and i can't escape
the fact that i might just be a man of hate
i believe there's a place where sanity awaits
where vanities in chains
clamped to the restraints
while im blindfolded lookin for a hand to shake
(hook)
im just a kid tryin to rock the mic
only did what i thought was right
i don't give a fuck if this song is tight
and if you think it sucks then yer probly right
why try and deny these giant cries
use scar tissue
to dry my eyes
i've got a franchise
on deeper thought
the props for faking it arent worth the cost
it can hurt a lot
to search for what's lost
so i turn and toss
while you burnin my cross
the furnace is hot
and i can't evade
the flames leaping at me when im up on stage
the harmonics of a blade
cutting through air can be compared to requiems
for the hearing impaired
im not nearly aware
--enough to prepared for it's cut
so it's sharp edge will tear up my guts
im in the dark, unaware of the sun
my inner child wonders where is the fun?
where has it gone?
i miss the magic of dawn
magic i used to hold in my palm
(hook)im just a kid tryin to rock the mic
only did what i thought was right
i don't give a fuck if this song is tight
and if you think it sucks then yer probly right
