Me and That Man - Year of the Snake lyrics

I was born in 1977 In the year of the snake I was raised among wolves In the midst of red plague My life's been a struggle With god, I forsake My middle name’s trouble Yet I hold no regrets No remorse, no regrets In the year of the snake I've slithered trails since 1965 Raising hell is what keeps me alive And I never bow to any man's god I’m the snake, so don't tread on me Bite you hard if you disagree My venom is sure to givе you great pain I was born empty, nothing herе to take In the year of the snake As the world goes down We ignite the flame We rise high and from grace, we fall As above, so below Our hearts like pyres, burn We crush and we never learn Compassion is not what we need We fight for what's right and we bleed No more rules to break In these years of the snake From eternal slumber, we must awake It's the year of the snake
