Hour For Life - Stego

Sometimes it feels like I'm weak But I'm just sick of this shit The wretched triumph It's taking over We have to pay it back No matter what they say Sacrifice the forgotten Seized by the jealousy Shed their blood and show them no forgiveness There's no trusted words There's only win or lose Eternal Struggle Your deeds will haunt you Would you take this path? Betraying all you have There's nothing you can do Until you beg for a merciful silent death Inside us all An animal One predatory beast Eye for an eye Tooth for tooth This is the law of retaliation Is this enough? Do you still believe it's the way? Will be enough When fire burns inside you Open the eyes Against the wicked Will be enough When you witness the rise of the fallen There's no trusted words There's only win or lose Your soul is broken But it's not forgotten We have to take it back No matter what they say The time is always right For those who have something to believe Shed their blood and show them no forgiveness We'll prevail before the liar's eyes Shed their blood and show them no forgiveness We'll prevail before the liar's eyes Is this enough? Do you still believe that it's the way? Will be enough When fire burns inside you

I hit him hard and made it known he wasn't gonna make it home No matter how much he might disagree I suddenly I saw it in his eyes when it clicked The last thing he was gonna see was me And fear is such a funny thing We wear it like a diamond ring With promises we never plan to keep I swear that if you let me go and so and so but tears are only water And water is cheap Mirror mirror on the counter, covered in fine white powder What the hell is fair at all? So I'll take a drop for every hour shе'll never dance Hidе a piece in every city she'll never see I know that this won't make it better But I don't want to live without her So the last drop, the last drop is for me I never thought there'd be a day I didn't get to hold my daughter Terrified knowing that I'd never come to terms with this at all I never knew how much a man could hate until I read that letter And like you said, none of us are saints, if I recall I never knew how patient I could be until I watched you bleed There's nothing I can take from you that means what she did to me Every word from your fucking mouth Is like bringing wood to a burning house And we'll be here all night 'til ashes are all we breathe So I'll take a drop for every hour she'll never dance I'll hide a piece in every city she'll never see I know that this won't bring her back And I'll never find relief So the last drop Oh, the last drop The last drop is for me
