Strung Out - Monster lyrics

Time it makes you old Experience makes you wise It's only a fool who judges life by What he sees in other people's eyes. The decisions that you cast Effect the outcome of your game And the only person who's gonna think about you Is the one that's standing in your shoes Live by the sword or die by the sword I'm a weapon of my set. The only family that I've ever known Is the gun that's by my side Little big man, he's not alone Now he's all grown up his stories Written all along these city walls. Found unity, he's gained a brotherhood As they gather to beat you down The fists reign hard, the fightin never stops. There's no mercy in this town And I don't know when it's gonna' end for me This side of town is all I know, it's all I see If I go on like this I'm gonna end it all one day It's my destiny, it's my reality, It's society I wear my colors proud but stare me down I've got a million scars to prove my pain You think you know who I am? fu*k NO! Try walking a mile in my shoes. Quick on the draw Never walk alone Know your enemy Never be afraid, it's what they always say Till they come around for you. Ghetto birds light the evening Sky as the sun begins to fall Another night he'll spend in this Jungle with his back up against the wall Little big man He's not alone now He's all grown up his stories Written all along these city walls. The fists ain't hard, I never walk alone Know your enemy, Never be afraid it's what they always say Till they come around for you!
