"Animal" lyrics

"Animal"

How can you control me when I can't control myself?
Flesh and blood and bone and rage will tear till nothing's left

Fire is my spirit and the earth, it is my flesh
Water is my blood and the wind, it is my breath

Ah

I am an animal
I'm not a man
I am, I am an animal
And I won't be contained

They take half what I make away and tell me not to speak
Tyranny of evil men, the wolf among the sheep

Fire is my spirit and the earth, it is my flesh
Water is my blood and the wind, it is my breath

I am an animal
I bite the hand
I am, I am an animal
And I will break these chains

The wolves won't leave, relentless greed
The madness of this fucking place, the shallow lives we lead
No one for the people, only filling up their coffers
While the poor man bleeds, the poor man bleeds
Come for my guns and you'll see, I'm no man at all
Animal, animal, animal

The wolves won't leave, relentless greed
The madness of this fucking place, the shallow lives we lead
No one for the people, only filling up their coffers
While the poor man bleeds, the poor man bleeds
Come for my guns and you'll see, I'm no man at all
Animal, animal, animal, animal
