Fifty One Fifty Lyrics

Why did I set the alarm

When I'm working 'round the clock

Attrition through blue collar jobs

Success is just double-talk

Frayed nerves, no end in sight

You can count on death for the next deadline

There's no justice, this is out of spite

Goodbye you sheep I'm falling out of line

I've tried to make a living cuz living ain't for free

I don't know about you, but this living ain't for me

We ain't free, that took me long enough to see

I am falling down and I'm taking you with me

Gotta cool down, gotta stop this bummer

It's a 'Gang Land Thing' and jerks wanna brawl

Sometimes you're the Louisville slugger

Too bad, this time you're the ball

Bruised and battered you seek revenge

Drive by shooting but your aim is wretched

Crashed your car, beg for penitence

Aiming for your leg, 'cause I got common sense

I've tried to make a living cuz living ain't for free

I don't know about you, but this living ain't for me

We ain't free, that took me long enough to see

I am falling down and I'm taking you with me

How can you still pretend

Mow your lawn and paint your fence

You smile, but the devil grins

The bullet tells truth from sin

Clear a path or else I shoot my way

Drilling bullets through your skull till it bursts

Scattered brains all across this place

Convinced we all get what we deserve

Did you really think that life was a game

Where you can murder, rape, kill and reset

Hypocrisy renders existence to pain

Embrace the leaden taste of death

I've tried to make a living cuz living ain't for free

I don't know about you, but this living ain't for me

We ain't free, that took me long enough to see

Suicide by cop seems like the better way for me

I could've kept on living a worthless life

living a lie, but I didn't

I could've played along to your perfidious game

And die of shame, but I didn't

You should give a man freedom, instead of

Letting him run free, but you didn't

You could have given a fuck, not try your luck

Avoid carnage, but you didn't

Just admit it
