I just wanted to write this note to all my opposition To say thank you from the pit of my soul for your caustic inspiration My methods may mean nothing to you as you question my dedication But to wear my life upon my sleeve is the source of my salvation Hostility Brutality Is building up inside of me I'm raging like a fire as I burn I give myself to all of you no matter what you say or do But I'm expecting nothing in return Disgrace me or embrace me You can choose to love or hate me Better f**ing know I've got something to say You masticate and you spit me out You picked me up to knock me down No matter what I'm always the prey I'm exposed X X Heart open wide X X So mark the X on me Stab your horns into my eyes Bear my soul X X Transparent life X X So mark the X on me Stab your spears into my side I just want to say these words to those who give respect Let's lose our minds Tear the walls down and break some f**ing necks I've fought the fight every day I've won a few gave some away But I'm still going to spill my share of blood This little games a little old A little late I've sold my soul A martyr but I'm not the only one Family don't mean sh** to me The wind has blown away the seed Got a father but I've never been a son We live to die all for one Lean on each other to carry on My metal family 'til the day I'm done I'm exposed X X Heart open wide X X So mark the X on me Stab your horns into my eyes Bear my soul X X Transparent life X X So mark the X on me Stab your spears into my side Say what you want Write what you want But we stand proud on this stage We're built to mosh We're built to slam We're built to f**ing rage Born and bred a metal head and that's the end of this And if you've got a problem sorry but I don't give a sh** I'm exposed X X Heart open wide X X So mark the X on me Stab your horns into my eyes Bear my soul X X Transparent life X X So mark the X on me Stab your spears into my side Mark the X Mark the X Mark the X Mark the X Stab your spears into my side X X Stab your spears into my side X X Stab your spears X X Into my side X X
