The Robbery
This is
A robbery
Oh, why break the silence
And smother me with words?
Subside with all the promises
You've ever told this world
Now I can't see the future
I can't tell you where you'll be
But twenty years from now I'll have it all
Oh, you just wait and see
You gotta think quick, kid
Don't lose your grip
'Cause reality is checkin' in to say
Whoa, let me hear you say
Whoa, let me hear you say
Whoa, let me hear you say
If I start the violence
With an unsuspecting crowd
Will you beg for forgiveness?
Will you dare to make a sound?
Now I don't need a sidekick
I don't need a man of crime
I just need your full attention
Because you have something of mine
You gotta think quick, kid
Don't lose your grip
'Cause reality is checkin' in to say
This is a robbery
And I'm here to steal your soul
I've got no papers
Cause your life is what you sold
You've got something I want but every time I try
I just want something more
This is a robbery
So throw your hands up and hit the floor
I'll be a legend, a hero, a saint, a god
You'll be the one they never name
I'll be a legend, I'll be a hero
I'll be a saint, I'll be a god
Cause I'm the hunter, you're the game
And it's a game I cannot quit (alright)
There's something that I need
And I'll fight till I bleed
There's something that I need
And it's right within my reach
There's something that I need
And I'll fight till I bleed
Don't think I wont succeed
Cause I deceive
This is a robbery
And I'm here to steal your soul
I've got no papers
Cause your life is what you sold
You've got something I want but every time I try
I just want something more
This is a robbery
So throw your hands up and hit the floor
This is a robbery
This is a robbery
A robbery
Oh, why break the silence
And smother me with words?
Subside with all the promises
You've ever told this world
Now I can't see the future
I can't tell you where you'll be
But twenty years from now I'll have it all
Oh, you just wait and see
You gotta think quick, kid
Don't lose your grip
'Cause reality is checkin' in to say
Whoa, let me hear you say
Whoa, let me hear you say
Whoa, let me hear you say
If I start the violence
With an unsuspecting crowd
Will you beg for forgiveness?
Will you dare to make a sound?
Now I don't need a sidekick
I don't need a man of crime
I just need your full attention
Because you have something of mine
You gotta think quick, kid
Don't lose your grip
'Cause reality is checkin' in to say
This is a robbery
And I'm here to steal your soul
I've got no papers

You've got something I want but every time I try

This is a robbery
So throw your hands up and hit the floor
I'll be a legend, a hero, a saint, a god
You'll be the one they never name
I'll be a legend, I'll be a hero
I'll be a saint, I'll be a god

And it's a game I cannot quit (alright)
There's something that I need
And I'll fight till I bleed
There's something that I need
And it's right within my reach
There's something that I need

Cause I deceive
This is a robbery
And I'm here to steal your soul
I've got no papers
Cause your life is what you sold
You've got something I want but every time I try
I just want something more
This is a robbery
So throw your hands up and hit the floor
This is a robbery
This is a robbery
