slave to the grind

Halestorm

You got me forced to crack my lids in two
I m still stuck inside this rubber room
I gotta punch the clock that leads the blind
I m just another gear in the assembly line oh no

The noose gets tighter around my throat
But I ain t at the end of my rope cause I won t be the one left behind
Can t be king of the world
If you re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can t be king of the world
If you re slave to the grind

A routine injection, a lethal dose
But my day in the sun ain t even close
There s no need to waste your prayers on me
You better mark my words cause I m history
Yes indeed

You might beg for mercy to get by
But I d rather tear this thorn from my side

Cause I won t be the one left behind
You can t be king of the world
If you re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can t be king of the world
If you re slave to the grind

They swallowed their daggers by turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart brick by brick
I m sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

They swallowed their daggers by turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart brick by brick
I m sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

I won t be the one left behind

You can t be king of the world
If you re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
You can t be king of the world
If you re slave to the grind
