Practice What You Preach

What lies beneath A frail thin shell tore by teeth Make one false move, start to break Cry for help, it's too late, your mistake Living up to what I've written Leaving some truths unspoken Is it my turn, my time to burn yet, am I now vilified Is my fate now set, you won't decide Kill your high horse Get down one more notch Where's the compassion Now that you've become the ruler Kill your high horse Get back down to earth Being a gatekeeper Won't keep you inside forever Spread so thin, where do I begin Searching for the truth, I'm failing Wondering if it even exists Humility, finding a place for me Living on the edge of reason Changing faith with every season Traitor Kill your high horse Get down one more notch Where's the compassion Now that you've become the ruler Kill your high horse Get back down to earth Being a gatekeeper Won't keep you inside forever Your inner transgressions come to life Spitting on us, not lending a hand Miserable, one day you'll understand Practice what you preach Learn what you teach A walking contradiction A hypocrite, no self-reflection Your inner transgressions come to life What lies beneath A frail thin shell tore by teeth Make one false move, start to break Cry for help, it's too late, your mistake I can't wait to watch you fall
