| Smile for the blade
|
| Everybody’s watching
|
| Everybody always got something to say
|
| They wanna pick you into pieces
|
| Lie, make you believe this
|
| Limit you from succeeding
|
| And take away your faith
|
| Smile for the blade
|
| Everybody’s talking
|
| Everybody always got something to say
|
| So no matter what it is
|
| No matter what you do
|
| There will always be a person trying to take it away
|
| I’ve heard that I don’t know the words that come out of my songs
|
| Like I was gone when I wrote it
|
| And didn’t see the pen inside of my palms
|
| Are you kidding
|
| I understand that you have an opinion
|
| But it’s ludicrous to think that I’d simulate what I’m living
|
| And it’s pointless
|
| Cause I’m not a person of arms
|
| With the whole world screaming and ready to bring it on
|
| No point
|
| Cause I don’t see the contest in art
|
| I only embarked in this so I could depart and free parts of mind
|
| And what did I find
|
| Grown ass men acting like bitches fighting all of the time
|
| God damn I’m sick of all this tryin'
|
| To turn around and see a mouth full of nails
|
| Hunting me, faking a smile
|
| And I hate it
|
| Cause I’m a fan of truth
|
| And you motherfuckers lie to get by in this game full of fools
|
| And it’s useless
|
| So you can chastise and blame me
|
| But no matter what, you will never change me
|
| Smile for the blade
|
| Everybody’s watching
|
| Everybody always got something to say
|
| They wanna pick you into pieces
|
| Lie, make you believe this
|
| Limit you from succeeding
|
| And take away your faith
|
| Smile for the blade
|
| Everybody’s talking
|
| Everybody always got something to say
|
| So no matter what it is
|
| No matter what you do
|
| There will always be a person trying to take it away
|
| And everyone’s an expert
|
| When it comes down to my life
|
| And speak like they knew me before I got in the limelight
|
| And what the hell does that really mean
|
| I busted ass to get these broken-hearted love poems printed up and seen
|
| And I liked it
|
| So why you bringing me down
|
| You either trying to help me or bury me in the ground
|
| As of lately
|
| I’m feeling a little drowned in the negativity
|
| Surrounding me making a sound
|
| And you hate me for it
|
| You gotta be out your mind
|
| Thinking I would give a damn about the flaws that you find
|
| Cause I’m human
|
| And never had a problem with that
|
| It’s a shame that you think I would stop
|
| Cause of that, say never
|
| This is just a way to behold
|
| The best way to gather around the flame — in the cold
|
| So you can go ahead and chastise and blame me
|
| But no matter what you will never change me
|
| Smile for the blade
|
| Everybody’s watching
|
| Everybody always got something to say
|
| They wanna pick you into pieces
|
| Lie, make you believe this
|
| Limit you from succeeding
|
| And take away your faith
|
| Smile for the blade
|
| Everybody’s talking
|
| Everybody always got something to say
|
| So no matter what it is
|
| No matter what you do
|
| There will always be a person trying to take it away |
