Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm always ready for a war again

Go down that road again

It's all the same

I'm always ready to take a life again

You know I'll ride again

It's all the same

[Verse 2]

Tell me, who's gon' save me from myself?

When this life is all I know

Tell me who's gon' save me from this hell?

Without you

I'm all alone

[Chorus]

Who gon' pray for me?

Take my pain for me?

Save my soul for me?

'Cause I'm alone, ya see

If I gon' die for you

If I gon' kill for you

Then I spill this blood for you

Hey

[Verse 3]

I fight the world, I fight you

I fight myself

I fight God, just tell me

How many burdens left

[Verse 4]

I fight pain and hurricanes

Today, I wept

I'm tryna fight back tears

Flood on my doorsteps

[Verse 5]

Life a living hell

Puddles of blood in the streets

Shooters on top of the building

Government aid ain't relief

[Verse 6]

Earthquake, the body drop, the ground breaks

The poor run, with smoked lungs and scarred face

[Verse 7]

Who need a hero? (Hero)

You need a hero, look in the mirror

There go ya hero

Who on the front lines at Ground Zero? (Hero)

[Verse 8]

My heart don't skip a beat

Even when hard times bumps the needle

Mass destruction and mass corruption

The souls of suffering men

Clutching on deaf ears again

[Verse 9]

Rapture is coming

It's all prophecy

And if I gotta be sacrificed for the greater good

Then that's what it gotta be

[Chorus]

Who gon' pray for me?

Take my pain for me?

Save my soul for me?

'Cause I'm alone ya see

If I'm gon' die for you

If I gon' kill for you

Then I spill this blood for you

[Bridge]

(Hey)

(Hey)

(Hey)

(Ooh)

(Hey)

(Hey)

(Ooh)

[Bridge]

(Hey)

(Hey)

(Ooh)

(Hey)

(Hey)

(Ooh)

[Chorus]

Who gon' pray for me?

Take my pain for me?

Save my soul for me?

'Cause I'm alone, ya see

If I'm gon' die for you

If I'm gon' kill for you

Then I spill this blood for you

(Hey)

[Outro]

Just in case my faith go

I live by my own law

I live by my own law

I live by my own law

[Outro]

Just in case my faith go

I live by my own law

I live by my own law

I live by my own
