Save The Hammer For The Man |
I hurt the gentlest souls, I robbed my wife and son |
I turned my back on troubles, troubles I’d begun |
I cut a swath of pain and loss in the hallways of my home |
In the quiet of my room I know the things I’ve done |
Save the hammer for the man, save the hammer for the man |
It’s the calling of the wretched |
It’s the rising of the damned |
Save the hammer for the man |
I was driven from the city, in the wilderness I stand |
In the cleansing rain in silence, I made my battle plan |
Alone I marched towards freedom, leaving footprints across the land |
With the vow that’s left unspoken, save the hammer for the man |
Save the hammer for the man, save the hammer for the man |
You’re never too far down the wrong road |
To turn back and change your plan |
Save the hammer for the man |
I leaned against the hot and bothered wind beneath a hateful rain |
Politics, apocalypse start to look the same |
For the pasts of my redemption will mean the end of many things |
The ransom for my soul the blood of generals and kings |
Save the hammer for the man, save the hammer for the man |
I sinned and I have suffered |
And it feels good in my hands |
Save the hammer for the man |
I was driven from the city, in the wilderness I stand |
In the cleansing rain in silence, I made my battle plan |
I will whisper words of freedom, I will swing hard as I can |
Lord knows the time has come and save the hammer for the man |
Save the hammer for the man, save the hammer for the man |
If the fire’s hot enough |
Iron and steel will bend |
Save the hammer for the man |
Oh, save the hammer for the man |
Gotta save the hammer for the man |
I will whisper words of freedom, I’ll swing hard as I can |
Save the hammer for the man, for the man |
I will whisper words of freedom |
I’ll swing hard as I can |
