We try to put the fire out; it keeps on burning. We try to win the streets back; we keep on losing. Your mouth was free; your words belong to me. Your pain is my reward; I am truth. We try to keep the heat on but never break the chill. The child tries not to fidget; "Take your s**er and sit still!" You words were free; your thoughts belong to me. Your pain is my reward; I am truth. Your leader is there to break your will but your mind is a weapon if you've got one. Scratching for that higher higher higher high. Your thoughts were free; your actions belong to me. Your pain is my reward; I am truth. Your mouth was free; your words belong to me. Your pain is my reward; I am truth.
