Ball & Chain
I'm contemplating, reflecting on my life I'm pondering my options and listening to advice Considering the price I've paid, observing what I've done I'm weighing all the pros and cons, the things I've lost and won The race I've run, the pace I've had, the choices that I've made The path that I've been treading on it isn't always paved I'm well behaved, I'm not depraved, I'm reasonably sane But the burdens that I carry are a hеavy ball and chain All of problems I face Every scar lеaves a trace For all the faults I create I have to carry the weight I'm meditating, rejecting all my strife I'm focusing on positives, reducing sacrifice The only paradise we have is what we all become A piece of mine for peace of mind we're sharing all the crumbs Everyone and anyone deserves a big upgrade The wrath we've all experienced has mostly been man made We've been betrayed, we've been portrayed as mentally insane And misery loves company, prepare to share the pain All of problems I face Every scar leaves a trace For all the faults I create I have to carry the weight All of problems I face Every scar leaves a trace For all the faults I create I have to carry the weight I'm hesitating, I'm sceptical at best Sometimes it feels like I'm clinically depressed Put to the test, I must confess that I'm no good with pain Am I insane to that I could go against the grain? Can I maintain my sanity outside my comfort zone? I'm hesitant of whether I can walk the line alone Am I a clone or skin and bone, what's my given name? Do I exist, is all this a stupid fucking game?

A bad taste in my mouth, a sore sight for my eyes A foul stench in the air, a nasty vibe in the house A bad excuse for a man, a dark time for the earth A big disgrace for the race, a life lost at birth Ruthless and scheming, pretentious and vain Narcissistic and greedy, simple and plain Selfish and sexist, shallow and lame You're scum! You're scum! You're just a pawn in the game, a brainless marionette A soul lost out at sea, another useless bet An easy target to hit, you've got nobody to blame You're just a piece of shit, you put the shame in your name Ruthless and scheming, pretentious and vain Narcissistic and greedy, simple and plain Selfish and sexist, shallow and lame You're scum! You're scum! You're scum! You're scum! You're scum! Another pussy to grab, yes that's what you said A small cock in your pants, no brain in your head You're so full of yourself, you're a fucking disgrace You don't deserve to be here, I want to spit in your face Ruthless and scheming, pretentious and vain Narcissistic and greedy, simple and plain Selfish and sexist, shallow and lame You're scum! You're scum! You're scum! You're scum! You're scum! Nobody loves the bible more than I do, nobody knows... Shift!
