"Lord Have Mercy" lyrics

"Lord Have Mercy"

In the place of gods, in the hands of fate
I gave it all but I've been raped
No friends ever came, no love for me
I know that I'm free
From the words, from the cancer, from their eyes
From all the bullshit I despise
From all the countless fucking lies
You're all dead to me
If I could I would stop your heart
Not a threat, just a thought I do enjoy
Do your best to keep me from you
My broken dreams and shattered goals
Stop the lies, we are not friends
End of the line for your forked tongue
Since I was young nothings more true
Than what was told that golden clue
She always said "Our blood ran deep."
And no one can compete...with the ties that you have with family
Your trust should weigh so heavily on the ones who raised and cared for you
You know this is true
