Lyrics
Fiction you made up to believe
Lives on a screen but itโs not reality
Actions that you didnโt take
Is why youโre concerned with the ones I make
Now youโve noticed your day slipping fast
Was it well spent or were you stepping back
You counted all my blessings as you went
Leaving your mark of discontent
This I earned
I wasnโt born with it
I bled for this
Be bound to your word
When you live by it
You prove your worth
This I earned
It wasnโt handed to me
I did what I had to
Be bound to your word
Itโs not what you deserve, you get what you earn
Donโt indulge in delusions to satisfy
I donโt escape today with dreams gone by
Perfection of the present doesnโt exist
The futureโs at stake, it isnโt granted
For this I bled
For this I bled
My blood I shed for this
You want a future worth fighting for
With skin in the game
Be bound to your word
Everything is at stake
My blood
My blood I shed for this
My blood
My blood I shed for this
You think this was handed to me
Some offering taken at birth
Iโve withstood every hardship
To prove myself of worth
This I earned
I wasnโt born with it
I bled for this
Be bound to your word
When you live by it
You prove your worth
This I earned
It wasnโt handed to me
I did what I had to
Be bound to your word
Itโs not what you deserve, you get what you earn
Earned in blood
A life thatโs well deserved
Take whatโs due
Once you prove your worth
Earn it
