I was raised by wolves
I was born to lead
And I starve ’til there’s no more mouths to feed
There’s a hand on my throat
And a blade at my feet
But the weight of the world won’t bend my knees
Broken bones, battle scars
I have seen the bloodshed
Carved in stone, when it’s my sword
They won’t forget
No war, no peace ’til I lead them all
Leave me with my demons
Hear my voice call
No fears or sorrows underneath these bones
Just blood, sweat, and tears
Is all I know
I can use who I want
And I taste what I please
In this world I get all my fantasies
There’s a hand on my throat
And a child at my feet
But the weight of the world
Won’t bend my knees
No war, no peace ’til I lead them all
Leave me with my demons
Hear my voice call
No fears or sorrows underneath these bones
Just blood, sweat, and tears
Is all I know
Don’t wash away my blood
Don’t wash away my sweat
It’s all I know
Don’t wash away my tears
Don’t wash my spirit, don’t cleanse my soul
Can’t break my courage, and I won’t fall
’Cause that’s all I know
No war, no peace ’til I lead them all
Leave me with my demons
Hear my voice call
No fears or sorrows underneath these bones
Just blood, sweat, and tears
Is all I know
