I've got a gun in my hand and I feel like a man

I'm the pope of my generation

I've gotta push myself over your goddamn walls

I don't listen to your condemnation



Can't you see the pain that you bring

Is only because of everything

That you wish to stop and bring to an end

But it only makes me hate you more



Careful what you wish for

It can only bring you down

Keep your spirit on the ground

Emptiness the only sound



I know what it takes to break you

And I'll kill everything that made you

(I know what it takes to break you down)



Take everything that you tried to teach me

It don't add up to a pile of shit

All the methods you used as you tried to reach me

They don't matter not a single bit



I'm alright inside, I'm just trying to hide

From all the propaganda you once choked me with

Keep your face away, keep your hands away

Don't want your fingers in and out of my life



I know what it takes to break you

(I know what it takes to break you down)

And I'll kill everything that made you

(I know what it takes to break you down)



I know what it takes to break you

And I'll kill everything that made you



I know what it takes to break you

(I know what it takes to break you down)

And I'll kill everything that made you

(I know what it takes to break you down
