Weak Lyrics

Weak

Nobody wants to look weak

For death shall inherit the meek

And I am the meanest ground pounder

Downtowner

Town downer

Weak

Sixteen weeks and sixteen days

From boot camp to a pink haze

Where the staff sergeant used to be

As he waved us back from an IED

Where a mortar's just a random act

Like a haircut or a joke you crack

Now I'm the one who kicks down doors

You kids there get down on the floor

Weak

Nobody wants to look weak

For death shall inherit the meek

And I am the meanest ground pounder

Downtowner

Town downer

Weak

And then they just rotate you home

You muster out, you're all alone

Your buddy bought it in Iraq

And you're guilty 'cause you made it back

But the VA's gonna fix you up

Just swallow these pills in this cup

Back from the land of us and them

Giving Oxy out like M & Ms

Weak

Nobody wants to look weak

For death shall inherit the meek

And I am the meanest ground pounder

Downtowner

Town downer

Weak

So is this a problem? Nah man, no

I can handle it, I'm in control

I'm either high or I'm sick

Either way I'm out of it

And if the Oxy's getting thin

I can score some heroin

Then some cop kicks down the door

And I'm the one who's on the floor

Three days in then out on bail

Re-arrested, back in jail

There's a program if you plead

There's what you want or what you need

Now I speak

I sit in this circle and speak

And nobody thinks I'm a freak

'Cause I'm not the only wall climber

Less blinder

Day at a timer

I speak

I speak
