Avenged Sevenfold |
|
The Fight |
|
The problem with society's been how do we teach |
|
And if they'll believe. |
|
We'll fight this battle for years to come |
|
'til we all accept that we can stand on our own. |
|
Grandfather used his hands, he worked them to the bone. |
|
Provide his family with a happy home, alone. |
|
Don't take your aggression out on me. |
|
My own man is all I'm meant to be. |
|
This common place is so lazy, old, and tired |
|
All your ideas are so fucking uninspired. |
|
Takes more than one idea |
|
More than one person to fight the fight |
|
How many times have you taught and not conspired? |
|
Don't wanna be, they never say |
|
But don't call us the liars |
|
We've walked these alleys a thousand times |
|
And scattered around a thousand lies. |
|
They are trying to hold you down |
|
Your life may be hard |
|
But keep your feet on the ground. |
|
Why don't I have the finer things that others have? |
|
The chance is there if you want it all that bad. |
|
So bad. |
|
Don't take your aggression out on me. |
|
My own man is all I'm meant to be. |
|
This common place is so lazy, old, and tired |
|
All your ideas are so fucking uninspired. |
|
Takes more than one idea |
|
More than one person to fight the fight |
|
How many times have you taught and not conspired? |
|
Don't try and get me confused. |
|
Cause I do understand. |
|
And sometimes people need help. |
|
That they may need a hand |
|
When this problems going on. |
|
A thing you have to get straight |
|
Is that you don't hold my hand. |
|
And I don't owe you a thing. |
|
So don't think about how sorry |
|
You feel when now your treated so bad. |
|
This common place is so lazy, old, and tired |
|
All your ideas are so fucking uninspired. |
|
Takes more than one idea |
|
More than one person to fight the fight |
|
How many times have you told and not conspired |
|
And as a race we look back and weve come so far. |
|
While some may conquer, the others had it so hard. |
|
But instead we just complain while theres no one for us to fight. |
|
I guess were bored and that's how we keep us occupied |
